Yep. They're back in stock. Great rims for fixed freestyle. Strong as hell and wide enough to hold bigger tires without popping beads. Everyone I know that's ridden these rims loves them, myself included. Gettem while they last!

I was wondering what kind of rims you run on your Bruiser?

Chukkers. I was riding the G6000s before that and loved them. Both rims are good, but I felt the extra bit of width and the cross-section on these made riding bigger tires a bit easier.

yes they're here on Torey's blog http://itswrahw.blogspot.com/2009/08/wrahw-product-review-alex-g6000-cross.html
but in Poland are not available so I want to build wheels with Mavic A 317 disc. are you know something about use them in 700cmx. or maybe something about Alex ACE 18 rims?

I guess I'm going to go for the G6000s, thanks for the advice.

Wish these guys would come out with a NMSW version. Can't beat the price, though.

I am sure its fine for a cheap rim, comparable to maybe Weinman. But I was not happy about the finish quality of these rim when I built a set for Tony. Spoke tension was way uneven, the extrusion of the rim is just not very even. As a wheel builder I'd have to give them a C+.

machine sidewall kills these.

my wheelbuilder said the same thing, but that rim lasted longer than any other did.

I hear you, just takes me longer to build them as I try to get them as even as possible. Might just have to resign to doing cheap rims fast and dirty, just not my style...
