Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Tubeless rim brake rims

Hi all,
I've built wheels with DT Swiss R460 and Alex Adventurer 2 rims that worked out well on road and gravel bikes with Gravelking 32 & 38c tires. Does anyone know of any such rims that are available in silver. I can't see black rims on my Wabi Classic or Centurion ProTour with silver hubs.
Thanks, Tom

Velocity A23 is the same outer width of the DT Swiss. Available in silver, or polished silver for an extra 50 bones.

There are also the Pacenti Brevet and Forza Classico, Velocity Quill... (Velocity's Cliffhanger is also tubeless-compatible, but probably not of interest for a go-fast bike.)

Hey, thanks for the reference to the Pacenti. I've got a bare one hanging on a hook. It's a beautiful classic. Now to find another for my Wabi.
