I would agree wider rims flatten out the tire and increase width. I'm not that excited about Sun rims though. They seem to have more rim to rim height variation than others ( tire fit). And Mavics seem to crack at the eyelets a little more than average. I like the the Velocity noBS rim http://www.velocityusa.com/product/rims/nobs-559<http://www.velocityusa.com/product/rims/nobs-559> or Atlas for a few more $$. Both are MUSA and mid width at 25.4 mm. You won't see much diff between 25.4 and 27.5 in tire width.
oh yea... I'd go with 36h rims as well. good luck ~mike -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
