Well.. New product, someone's gotta be the guinea pig for 'em. In theory they're good, so you buy 'em, wreck one, assume its a fluke, buy another, wreck it... Maybe wreck the other wheel too, and all of a sudden you've destroyed 3 of the same rim when you only replaced one damaged rim (it's not like you're buying 'em over and over even though they break).Rik said:I don't know what's worse... the fact that everyone seems to kill these rims, or that people still choose to run them even though everyone kills them.
i just don't understand these problems, i have a friend that rides Tunnel Trail in SB very regularly and he has never had a problem.....Brian HCM#1 said:Well 2 whole days of riding on this new rear wheel, guess this one will also be sent back to Mavic:mumble::mumble:
It sounds like your friend is very smooth then, that trail is brutal on rims.WestCoastHucker said:i just don't understand these problems, i have a friend that rides Tunnel Trail in SB very regularly and he has never had a problem.....
he really isn't that smooth, i am just baffled at the inconcistancies (sp?) in their strength........ i've seen some explode when you just say "DH", and i've seen some ask for more without wincing.....Zark said:It sounds like your friend is very smooth then, that trail is brutal on rims................I'm riding Tunnel after work today actually :love:

The rocks are bigger and more jagged than Tunnel, and yes I do know that trail and have been riding Tunnel since 1993.WestCoastHucker said:i just don't understand these problems, i have a friend that rides Tunnel Trail in SB very regularly and he has never had a problem.....
Good luck.- seb said:I never had any problems with my old d3.1s which I ran for about a year. Have just ordered some 823s to give my GT sometubeless luvvin'.
823s ARE just D3.1s renamed, right? Just checking....Brian HCM#1 said:Good luck.
Yeah, they're awesome except that they suck...Brian HCM#1 said:Yep, I love my 823's, I just wished they would last a little longer
