Hello lightbicycle, I want to buy a carbon rim for my folding bike. The size is 20 inch. Do you have any recommendation because you have several types of 20 inches. I also saw the price is 155 usd, is that the price for 1 wheel or 2 wheels? And also can you ship to Japan? Thank you!
LightBicycle 2021/03/04
Hi Louis, May i know your tire width please? Then we can check which rim is better for you. For USD155, it is for one single rim. The shipping cost is around USD47 by EMS to Japan for 2 rims. Thanks, Lightbicycle
