Carbon MTB Rims

[celestequattro]

This is a "light the blue touchpaper and retire" type of thread, but here goes....

For a cross country bike (not enduro/DH etc.) would you go Enve, Duke or Light Bicycle and why?

Have Enve tubular now, like the 280g flyweight Light Bicycle rims but there seems to be a fair bit of good press on Duke Lucky Jack.

I get the anti Chinese thing, but my new Swiss full susser is made in Taiwan and nobody seems to mind.

Thanks in advance

These look interesting from a warranty point of view

I may get some for mine

I have always been of the thinking that rims were a consumable item but i have never had a nice set. Maybe i need to rethink this

Also looking at a set of these, no prices yet that I can find?

They're a £1200 upgrade on their compete builds so I'd guess £1500 to buy stand-alone at least.

I have been using ENVE all mountain rims on my Tall boy LTC. utterly bombproof. Best wheels i've ever owned. light, stiff, brilliant!
