Josh PWND Posted February 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 looks like they changed them into lighter monty rims nearly lighter than DOB like 3 grams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

planet x alan Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 (edited) Aren't they just these? looks like Abant is just a distributor for Monty stuff. just like say Ison distribution distributes khe and halo etcEDIT: Didn't see that mega drilled rim. wouldn't trust one of them though to be honest Edited February 10, 2008 by planet x alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Rainbird Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 I want those rims... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazy_gap girl Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 Yeah abant rims have been around since like 2005 maybe earlier. The abant twins had them on their montys at the worlds in 2005.. They are nice rims and when i saw monty had simular rims on i just assumed they were abant. Nice though, only a spanish thing i think.

basher Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 I think the new montys may have been copied form the abant ones as abant rims have been aorund for a few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Winton. Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 Yeah they will be shit.monty rims crushed easy enough and they had little squares ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 what the shizzite is that?I had a dream about some of them, but in white, I didn't know they existed!Interestingly, still heavier than DOB. (I think). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh PWND Posted February 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 only £22 Front and £37 Rear or £52 for both Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonMack Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 240gr (front) 360gr (rear)Dob:Front: 318gRear: 338g Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 240gr (front) 360gr (rear)Dob:Front: 318gRear: 338gSo the lightest set up would be Dob rear, Abant front, but you want a matching set, and I bet that the front Dob is stronger than this front one anyway.

Dave Anscombe Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 The girls father has them coustom made ....its a comp rim...its fine for them as they are light/smooth riders.....and they are intended for front and rear DISC not rim brakes Its a spanish thing ....they look fancy as buggery though.....

The Duck Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 Ha what a joke.I suppose they might be alright on double disk mods but anything other than that...Dob rims are stupid enough, mines wank. There isn't a lot of point skimping weight on rims imo.Don't get me wrong, I love how light my bike is, but after 2 grinds this Dob rim is flatspotting mentally and cost me £47 posted. Won't be buying one of those again...My advice to anyone, is stick to something strong. Only use silly-light rims if you don't weigh anything or your waaaay smooth or using a disk or made of money.I'd probably use a front rim like these Abants or a DOB if UI was running a disk, but if I was buying - I'd get try-alls.
