Finish This is a required option.

The "Finish" relates to how the rim is coated or painted such as matte or glossy for the most common applications. Our Recon Pro and Falcon Pro rims feature BlackTek and come out of molds as a completed product, with a scratch resistant and near flawless finish, eliminating the need for coating or painting. We name this kind of superior finish the paintless.

Brian: I thought I'd show you where & what the new wheels are being used for. I use them as my bikepacking/adventure wheel set. I've attached a couple of photos from a recent overnighter. They're fantastic. Thanks again for such wonderful service.

COMMENTS

Mike 2021/01/30

Hello, I had a question about two of your 29er rims. I was looking at the AM 935 and the EN 934. I usually run tires between 2.6 and 2.8, weigh close to 200lbs and often bikepack. The AM 935 have a weight limit of 140kg while the EN 934 has a weight limit of 125kg while claiming to be one of your stiffest options. Can you explain the difference in weight limits as well as make a recommendation. Thanks, Mike

LightBicycle 2021/01/30

Hi Mike, As the model name indicates, the AM935 was designed for All-Mountain 29er riding. On the other hand, the EN rims are for Enduro riding, which is way more aggressive than AM riding. The wheels suffer from big drops and force. We evaluate both the durability and strength of the wheels to adjust the rider weight recommendation range. I hope this makes sense. On the other hand, if you are a super aggressive rider, we can make a specially reinforced version for you. Thanks, Lightbicycle
