  1. Wait for a little while, Most companies like Reynolds and Campy have figured out how to make a
    clincher out of a carbon rim without bonding a aluminum rim to the carbon, which should lighten the
    wheel considerably. Chris

    This is a no-brainer, but how about braking performance/wear?

    American Classic's recently announced a 300g magnesium rim.

    However, they limit rider weight to 120 lbs, because if heavier riders brake hard with these rims,
    the magnesium is likely to catch fire !!!
