I got a brand new rim courtesy of Odyssey yesterday.

Too bad they actually took apart my wheel and took the old rim. =/

Balance rims are pretty terrible, and as are Primo spokes (which is what you are most likely getting).

EDIT: And that hub...

no comment.

for the back its a really bad idea. They're more suited for the front. If you really want a good back rim get a city lite. fo realz.

My rear demolition isn't bad, it only has a slight wobble because some kid snaked me at the park and I slid it into a box.
