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 2.0- at 28mm internal width and 450 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.

WTB i35 KOM tough- These are a great hard trail/ Enduro rim with a second inner bridge for more impact resistance.

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.
