Rhyno Lite
« on: January 03, 2009, 10:03:28 AM »
Bought a pair of these wheel a couple of years ago because my other wheels were not worth saving. I've had them for about 2 years now and never had a problem with them they ave stayed true since I bought them. They are a little heavy but give you a worry free ride. These wheel s can stand up to anything and I think they are a 9 out 10. They don't get a 10 out of 10 because they are a little heavy but that's the price to pay for a durable wheel set.

Oh yea!
I've got 'em too, on a semi-vintage all mountain rig (pic below).
I have to agree with all you've said above Apple-man.
They've been very very good to me and have taken a beating...drops, crashes, contact with rocks...
The only complaint i've got is that mounting and unmounting tires is a tad more chore-som than other wheels i've had. This may be due to the flat-nature of the rims (no ''V'' notched rim).
Also, aside from it's strength in the rear, my front wheel (in conjunction with a thru-axel setup) has helped tracking and stability in the technical stuff.
The bitterness of poor workmanship remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten...
