Rims
See a comparison here ^^
XC Rim options
Notubes Crest Mk4 The crest is the best alloy Xc rim on the market. 25mm internal width 380 gram rims
We Are One Revive The revives are 25mm internal width, carbon fiber and 340 grams per rim. They come with a lifetime warranty.
Trail rim Options
Notubes Arch mk4 These are the best general trail or bigger guy XC rims right now. 28mm int width and 465 grams. These are wide enough for 2.1-2.5" tires and plenty strong for tougher use.
Notubes Flow mk4- 100 grams per rim lighter than the EX3 but tough enough where the Stan's riders used them at Redbull rampage last year. They have a spoke offset which makes them punch above their weight.
We Are One Sector- at 28mm internal width and 495 grams the sector is a great tough trail rim for those using 2.2-2.5" tires They come with a lifetime warranty.
Enduro / DH Rim options (all 30mm internal width and perfect for 2.2-2.6" tires)
Stans Notubes Flow Ex3 These are the toughest Alloy enduro rims on the market right now. We have build hundreds of them with only a few ever getting wrecked. If you want a rim that will keep rolling when you turn that front wheel down the mtn these are the best.

See Ex3 strength comparison^^^
Dt FR 541- Contending for the Ex3's tough crown Dt Made a thicker version of the 511 for hard riding
Dt 511- Made for hard enduro riding, lighter than the EX3 and 541 and a tough heavier/stronger than the flow mk4
Race Face Arc30 HD- Thee are super strong and come with an amazing lifetime warranty. These are the exact rims Satacruz rebranded as their "reserve alloy Hd" They are mid weight and have a spoke offset
WTB i30 kom tough- These sport the same inner bridge as the flow ex3 rims but have a lighter overall weight. Very good strength to weight ratio.
We Are One Triad- Carbon fiber! Lighter than all of the rims above but stronger than the Ex3, made in Canada and have a lifetime warranty. Thi
We Are One Strife- Carbon fiber, Full Dh ready, max strength. The toughest rim here Made in Canada with a life time warranty.
+ Size options 35mm- We stock 35mm for + size wheels because that is the diameter the + size tires are based off of. We cna source 40mm rims too ut they tend to make square tire shape that does not perform well.
Race Face Ar 35- tough offset rim that has all the strength needed for trail use. These come with a lifetime warranty.
WTB i35 KOM tough- These are a great hard trail/ Enduro rim with a second inner bridge for more impact resistance.
We Are One Convert The carbon fiber Convert is the answer to a wider format rim that gives the ultimate stability and traction. Perfectly suited for clunker hardtails and plus bikes where larger tires are the game.. We dont stock these but can get them in around 1 week.

Sapim Leader- Max strength weigh is no consideration
Sapim Cx-Ray ($125) These are as light as the laser and as strong as the Race. they have been cold press into a bladed shape and last a very long time.
Sapim Cx-Sprint ($90) Same bladed shape as the X-ray but thicker and even stronger
Berd spokes($399 and 2 weeks) Berd spokes are made from an advanced polymer called Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE). UHMWPE has 12 times the strength-to-weight ratio of steel and floats on water. Berd spokes have an improved fatigue life over steel and are impervious to the elements. This is what makes Berd spokes the lightest, strongest, and most durable spokes ever invented.
