SJSC 26 x 1 3/8 590 Alloy Rim - Silver - 36 Hole

I recommend this product

I used a pair of these to build wheels for our utility bike. The old steel wheels had seen much better days and fairly new Schwalbe Delta Cruisers had an alarming habit of ‘popping off’ the rim when inflated above 40PSI as the rims were not clincher design. These were the 2nd pair of wheels I have built and I found initial tensioning a bit tricky as they do not have eyelets and have offset spoke holes. However, they have built a good pair of wheels that ride well. I did have to smooth of around the joint inside the rim as I felt the residual burr might damage the tube/tyre. I used Schwalbe 20-559 inner tube tape which although a bit of a struggle to fit works well.

I can now inflate the tyre to the max 65PSI with improved ride.
