I've been trying to chase up some strong rims for a bike that I'm about to start building.

Can anyone suggest a strong rim? Does anyone know what type of rims the Blade runs?
 
I've got no idea what a blade is, so no help there. a refrence or link might help.

And without knowing what kind of bike you're building, its hard to advise on wheels. if its any help, I'm building up a Dyad 29 inch Down hill racing wheel with a 32 spoke Shimano hub. it should be more than strong enough for my bike.
 
Thanks,

Want to build the strongest wheel that I can using an X5... I'll check out that Freeride stuff.

Thanks again
 
What's a Blade?
 
I am fairly sure that the blade runs 24" wheels, the tip to look at downhill rims is spot on, they will be solid as they are able to take a right kicking from downhillers by default - check out mavic rims or halo and the like.
if your really going to give it a bashing i would probably use a motorcycle rim - this will make it easier to get thicker spokes too?


cheers
