Alex 320 rim ERD please

[Johan Bornman]

Does anyone have the ERD of an Alex 320 rim for me please? The rim is
not listed on the Alexrims website since it is usually sold as part of
a pre-built wheel. Also, I can't measure it because I haven't got it
yet and I'd like to order spokes in the meantime.

Thanks
JB

Where did you get the rims? I'd love to know a source for more Alex
rims other than the 3-4 common models.

This doesn't give the ERD, but if the rim is the one on the Alex/A-
Class 320 wheel, the spoke lengths for their particular build are here
(so if you can just find their hub specs--good luck! :

http://www.aclass-wheels.com/road_alx320DX.html

But that page has a rim profile showing that it is 27mm deep and looks
very similar to their DA-28 rim, which has listed ERD of:

700C-480g, ERD 584.8mm, ETRTO 622X14
650C-420g, ERD 534.1mm, ETRTO 571X14mm

The local A-Class wheel importer in South Africa brings the rims in as
spares for the wheels. They sell them separately.

Thanks Victor. I went the conservative route and waited until the rim
arrived. I measured it this morning and the ERD is 590mm.
