Actually thats crap. The try-all rims are quite well known for being cheese rims. Mavic rims hold grinds well and ronnies seem to be alright as well. Alex DX32's were one of the best grind holding rims availble at one point so i'd imagine they're still alright.

i my self have grinded my onza drilled hog rim the grind doesnt last very long i say i just stick tar on my rim or coke( coke does actually work as it is an acid and drys up and sticky like tar)

I've had an onza ronnie and I'm now running a try-all (Stock Rims), they both hold a grind well. The harder pads I've used like the Koxx Browns have worn the grind down faster, but since I've been using Koxx Blues its been fine.

I have grinded my old style echo rim for at least 20 times and still no bend in sidewalls althought I smash it hard quite often. Now I have koxx browns and they work well on medium grind and wear it down in two or three days so I must grind my rim frequently.
