5out of 5

Pros: Well Built, Good Breaking Surface, Stays True

Best Uses: Mountain Biking

Reviewer Comments: This IS the rim set for Clydesdales!!
Im not your typical 135-pounder bouncing through the woods like a springtime squirrel. I tip the scales at a solid 225 lbs. and I love charging across, over and down the mountains like a coal-loaded freight train.
I’ve destroyed my fair share of lesser rims and spent way too much time and money searching for the next set along the way.
I’ve had the Ryno Lites on now for more than a year with STELLAR PERFORMANCE. Mine came wih an XT hubset: which I think is the way to go.
They may not be the lightest wheels on the market, but I’m not the lightest rider either!
Even with all I’ve punished them with, they’re still straight and true. No fuss. No muss. I swear that I could ride over an IED and the only thing left would be these wheels!
Wish I had welded them to my bike years ago. I could have saved myself a bundle of cash and lots of time walking out of the woods with useless alum/steel tacos!

The Bottom Line: If you weigh more than 190 lbs., want to forget about trying to finesse your bike through technical rides, and enjoy riding your bike OUT of the woods,… These are your wheels.
