Nice photo in VeloNews:

Remember not to pump those tires over 300 psi just to be safe.

The $4500 Reynolds RZR wheels have rims made in China. Hmmm.

So what's wrong with that? It's not the same carbon, mold, or factory that your shithouse open-mold Chinese made rims are from. No one's forcing you to buy them.

Why would they do that? They could have stopped at 250 psi and called it a day, relying on my expert opinion to tell them "Yeah, the damn thing is going to explode at somewhere over 300 psi" and then they could have made note of that and then given me the rim. :mrgreen:
