Rebelistic Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 Hi, I'm thinking of building up some new wheels for my console but seem to be struggling to find much choice of rim. The Spank rims look great but I can't see any for sale anywhere. Does anyone know anywhere that stocks much in the way of 24" rims? The DMR DeeVee looks like a reasonable option but it would be nice to have a few others to choose from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross McArthur Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 (edited) The DMR Backline is also a good option but cant find them anywhere at the moment. But what you really want is these... http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/topic/190187-inspired-arcade-rims-24-matt-black-with-black-logo/ Edited March 18, 2015 by Ross McArthur 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aldred_85 Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 Ebay - DMR Backline from dennis winters. 35mm wide, £20, heavy though at 666g Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 I might be able to help you with some Spank Subrosa rims, I've a bunch of new rims delivered and I don't need the old ones. I'll make a sale thread about them (and other stuff) tomorrow perhaps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryBradbury Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 Inspired rims are always a good choice. Bombproof and look pretty good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what you really want is these... http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/topic/190187-inspired-arcade-rims-24-matt-black-with-black-logo/ Yeah I saw those on here...might be a good option. Perhaps I'm being very picky but the Inspired rims are perhaps a bit heavy for rims without eyelets. I'd prefer to have eyelets if there isn't much of a weight penalty. I'm not really sure if they really have much effect on how long the rim lasts or how strong it is though?

Cheers, I'll keep an eye out for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are fairly heavy, but iv'e battered the sh** out of mine and have never bent them. Depends what you're using them for I suppose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebelistic Posted March 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2015 Thanks for the info. I've ordered some Spank Spikes off Sponge on the forum. Got my new hubs already so just waiting for the rims. Think I'll get a shop to build these as my wheel builds are never that good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christiaan Posted March 23, 2015 Report Share Posted March 23, 2015 Any thoughts on the Dartmoor revolt v1 rim. Very light at 465gr, 33,5mm wide, but will they be strong enough? 400gr of my wheelset would be nice though ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dman Posted March 23, 2015 Report Share Posted March 23, 2015 I would choose the fortress out of the dartmoor rims, I wanted them but can only find 32 hole ones in black. I reckon the revolt will be okay though. Try this place http://slam69.co.uk/rims-108-c.aspthey said they had some 32 holes in a few different dartmoor rims , even though it says out of stock on site.

Christiaan Posted March 23, 2015 Report Share Posted March 23, 2015 Not very light at 595gr. The only reason for me to switch rims well be notaciable weight bennefit over my current inspired rims. I don't want to sacrifice (much)strenght though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
