Overall Product Rating 5 / 5

Quite stiff for my liking

By hadz

I recommend this product

Prosvalue for money

Contrary to popular belief that this rim is not stiff enough, i found it quite stiff, solid and comfortable for long ride. I weigh 90kg and considering my steel bike is around 8kg, its quite vital for me to get a stiff wheel or there will be some rubbing action at the back. I gave this rim a sprint at swaine lane and i did not notice any rear brake rub, even when i set the brake caliper real close to the rim. awesome

i built it with hope hubs, and dt swiss spokes according to ed's recommendation. 24,28 back setup

ConsNot too exciting to look at.

ProsEasy to build with, normal tyres fit without levers, good value wide rims

I was able to rebuild my worn DT Swiss RR1850 wheels using the original spokes and hub and new 12mm brass spokes at home without any fancy tools. The R460 rims trued up perfectly and only required final tensioning at the bike shop. Two new wheels for £100, perfect.

Solid

Nice wheel - not too much bling. I wanted something of quality and understated when replacing my MA40/XT wheel. Tyres (Pannaracer Pasela's) sit reassuringly well without being difficult to fit. Wear indicator is a useful thing.

Are these rim brakes or disk brakes?

SJS Customer Service:

Hi,

These rims are the rim brake versions of DT Swiss' R460 rims but they could still be used with a disc brake hub if you wished.

Thanks.

OK to rebuild a Shimano RS11 rear wheel?

By David Taylor

26 Oct 2017

I've got a RS11 rear wheel with a shot rim and would like to try to rebuild it using the original hub and spokes which are OK, is this rim suitable?
Probably not the best financial solution but just want to have a go at building a wheel!

SJS Customer Service:

Hello,

This rim will be fine to use, just ensure that it has the correct number of holes.

Thanks.

Hi What Is The Recommended Min-Max Tyre Width Is For This Rim? Thanks

Hi,

These rims have an internal width of 18mm so recommended tyres would be between 25mm and 38mm.

Thanks.
