the complete I9 wheelset and the 2350's have the same rim - 6.1splease take advice from people who have ridden the wheels. i rode them last season, few races, mutliple shuttles, some jumpin and about 10 whistler days.
2 dents in the rear wheel and one in the front. i didnt get a full season on them and im gonna say if you do a lot of rough rocky or resort riding theyll last you the summer months only, or about 3 months. if your doin regular DH nothing absurdly rough you can last one season on them but thats about it, mine have been trued and maintained this season quite so that always helps. im gonna say if your gonna pay MSRP on them go for i9, will last muuuch longer and worth the extra 2-300 more.
2350 look cool, and are like butter, i think im one of the lucky ones getting mine scaved with only a few dents. i would say theres another 2 months of life in them at least.
for the record in 170 and id say i ride pretty smooth.
i would recomend i9 over these for sure. or 1750 which last incredbily better and are lighter, hehe
maybe try the new e 2200? same red, just lil lighter and i believe different rim, but not 100 percent on that
Ummm...not really. On the I9 website it says 6.1 is the rim they use, but you basically custom order your wheels at I9 so you can pick any rim you want to use and they loop it for you.the complete I9 wheelset and the 2350's have the same rim - 6.1s
well thats what I meant- the wheelset they sell is the 6.1 but yes most people usually just pick their own rim with the i9 hubsUmmm...not really.

i can guarentee red i9 will look more badass. red hubs and red spokes on any rim you wantwell **** the 2350s will look badass with my new anod black bullit so i say the hell with it im ordering them monday.
hahaHe probably bought the wheels before he started this thread.
these at cost still isnt worth it, trust me, i got them at cost, and there a waste of money.well i cant get i9 stuff at cost so thats why i was gonna get these. trust me i would get i9 in a second if i could.
Your in for a surprise...but it didn't sound like you wanted any one's opinion to begin with.well i cant get i9 stuff at cost so thats why i was gonna get these. trust me i would get i9 in a second if i could.
yea but you reaaly think that they would hold up for DH cause that is all i would use them for. and do they make a 150mm rearYour in for a surprise...but it didn't sound like you wanted any one's opinion to begin with.
If you haven't purchased them yet, I'd suggest Atomlab rims. You can get red anno Pimps with red spokes and nipples. That's what I have on my DJ bike, and they look just as sick as they ride. Solid rims if you ask me, and I'm not the smoothest rider (my first hardtail in years coming from 8" of squish).
after 3 years of DH, skatepark, FR, DJs, everything, my 729s just got a single dent that size on the front rim (still in true), and I'm 200lbs with a helmet on and ride that bike lose and fast with just a wee bit of smoothness. just thought i'ld toss that out there, i've got no experince with the DTs other then a few parking lot tests, which they fell like frozen butter (stiff and smooth)After 6 days in Whistler. I weigh 165lbs and haven't had any problems with other rims I've tried.
These are just two of the many. To be fair, I believe these are the first generation and from what I understand later ones were changed to make them stronger.
Yes, and yes.yea but you reaaly think that they would hold up for DH cause that is all i would use them for. and do they make a 150mm rear
