Thanks

I passed your information to Kyle. I think you can use 45mm long valve stem.

Can you please post big pictures of wheels in UD matt, glossy and satin finish? As well as marble on different angles. Preferrably for the hookless 30mm wide model. Thanks

i received a email from farsports about new 2020 super light rims/wheelsets. no prices yet. what is surprising is the 21/21 spokes for a disk wheel :o
the market is screming for sub 1300 gm wheelset.

28 is fine for a 26mm actual tyre

Yes, but I am not planning to use anything below 28c. Ideally 32c.

Then you have to accept the weight penalty for wider rims and tyres.....

Happy to accept that, as long as there is no huge aero penalty (like in case of 30+ rims ecspecially hookless). My 31mm rim from EIE in 49mm depth weighs around 440 grams. New LB rim in 32mm and 45mm depth is only 398 grams.
