I was looking @ ordering some tub rims in from overseas.
'Xpace' brand rims. I've already got a couple of sets of these rims in 50mm & 38mm and they seem pretty good considering the price. The 38mm version is a more recent offering from this manufacturer & seems to have good quality & build strength.
Based on this 38mm rim, I'm keen to try out a properly light wheel build with a low profile tub - rim only weight is normally sub 230g so a wheel set @ > 1kg is pretty easy to do.
If I can get a group of interested people then price will drop from around £90 each to well below that (5pr minimum order basically) ... plus delivery / customs charges gets spread so making things more economic.
Drop me a PM if your interested / want more info. Delivery normally take a couple of weeks, so kind of a planning in advance affair if you are keen.
Update - as most folks would like to get 38 or 50mm section rims, title changed to reflect group buy order is mostly for 38mm or 50mm tub rims. PM if interested in those depths so I can work out how many are wanted.
