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

best 26" rims for both on/off roading for surly LHT build?

Just playing around with looking for the best combo of both strength and lightweight for a rim for my gal's soon to be built up LHT (she weighs 120)...would be used for mostly commuting (50%), some loaded touring (25%) and the remainder being singletrack/off roading on the local n.shore mountains here in Vancouver BC
(host city, 2010 winter olympics).

I have been thinking of the Mavic 519 ...any other thoughts?
