Alexrims KAPRUN dh/Freeride rim

ok so i just got my new set of rims, and man they are sooooo solid way more solid than my supra d's. In feel at least and so far in stature to .they are soo much more beefy than my other sets of wheels
so here's how they look on my bike sorry the pic aint the best but i have close ups

and now for the close up

and a little closer to see just how thick the rimm actually is

i ode around on them last night more urban stuff and man i feel so much more solid and stuck to the ground than before. i was doing a little jumping and the bike feels a little heavier in the air but i was still able to kinda whip is around a bit..i also have changed tyre brand from kenda to nokian and so far the nokian look and feel a lot better no i just need to get them freaking dirty


so these are the set of alexrims supra d wheels i just took of with saint hubs


dont these supra d rims look wimpy compared to the KAPRUN

i think so at least


hope you like

Can't really tell the difference from the pictures. Quality/lighting is poor.

Glad you like them!

Where did you get that wheel set? I would like a really beefy one on my bike. Just got a set for $160 (Alex DM18) about a week ago but not too happy/confident with them...

i got these rims from alexrims after the show. they were showing these at the outdoor demo.this rim isnt available yet. i believe withing the next 2-3 months they wil be if not already out but i have no clue.... i just had to wait til the show was done b4 i could pick them up. my girls brother is one of their reps so he gave them to me.. i have 2 sets of supra d's both with saint hubs on them these new KAPRUN rims have a lawwill type hub ( i think i spelled his name wrong but owell) if your bike can accept 20mm front hub i have a set of supra d up for sale but they arent so cheap .......sorry about the lighting and the pic i will take a better one
