Mach1 Omega rims?
Does anyone have experience with Mach1 Omega rims on a Tandem?
I've got a chance to buy a set for a good price and I was wondering about their durablility? These were spec'd on the 2008 and 2009 Cannondale Road 3 tandems. They were built on Shimano Hubs so I'm not worried abouot the hubs at all.
Since Mach1 is a French company there's very little information on them here in the US. The price of these rims is rather low in the UK.
I was thinking about using these as a spare wheelset that I'll put 25MM tires on for fast mostly flat century rides.
I guess if the rims don't hold up I could re-build these using Velocity Deep Vs.
