Re: Best trials rim?

I fiddle with my spokes on my drilled rim maybe once a month tops. I let
them get very loose and out of wack before I true and tighten them I
have no problems with the rim thus far. I even let it go pretty long
after the original build to see what the rim could take, as I have a
non-drilled rim if I need it. I do all my builds and and I am no pro
and the drilled Tryall without eyelets holds up fine to big sets a lot
of stand on tire tricks and the often(I mean rare😉 ) poor landing. I
don't weigh that much but I do abuse the hell out of the rim and for me
the weight savings is worth the risk that it may break which it hasnt. I
have gotten a lot of use out of it and there are no signs of weakness
yet.

Look through the drilled holes at an angle and see if there are any
cracks in the thin metal of the inside wall. Mine has gone at the
bottom of the wheel, check there. I have had my KH rim for about a
year, its always been tightened and maintained, has never goten badly
out of true, has been rotated once and mines gone pretty bad.
