They were sent 2-day, almost a week ago. Tracking shows FedEx had them on Wednesday but there have been no tracking updates since literally Wednesday.

My previous 55's all made it here timely in great condition, one box looked to have been opened by someone along the way though, the flaps literally completely open but the inner packaging intact/complete.

nice! Did all three of your sets of 55s look pretty good?

I am going to use the rims to surprise a riding buddy with pretty tight finances with a nice carbon wheelset. I wish R2 Bike still shipped DT hubs to the US....

I ordered what I "think" are 34mm OD width rims which should end up being 28mm or 29mm ID.

I will let everybody here know how the rims measure out when they arrive.

My goal is to build a sweet wheelset for my buddy for less than $325.

you guys are good friends!

I keep telling myself I don't need these rims. They sent me a $50 coupon, so its basically buy one get one free.

Yeah, I have thought so much about them, but I don't have ANY information to go on. I have spent over an hour on the phone(95% of it on hold), multiple emails, and multiple times on the chat, and no one replies, or if they do, they hardly know a thing about them. They must have sold a bunch, but only about 2 people here have reported using them, and I can't find much at all on the wheels or rims anywhere on the internet.

Yeah I guess that doesn’t surprise me based on all the different stuff they have I guess. I was hoping I could get another race face bar, but they are all sold out.

An extra $50 off is huge. In that case you gotta buy. I forgot to add that I ended up paying $10 less than I quoted above. Because nothing is secret on the internet, paypal apparently knew I was shopping on The House website and offered me extra $10 off if I paid through Paypal, which put me at $104.

Not nearly as good as your $50 off coupon though.

I got charged for the 50mm rim brake wheelset but no communication about them having shipped. I'll reach out after New Year's if they don't show up.

I think you bought a single 32 hole rim. The description sucks.

So what am I missing here….sounds like poor customer service from company, no real information on rims/wheelset, but they are cheap and on sale with supplies running out? Normally I’m all in on something like this but the rest of you I thought had higher standards

So what do you think the rim will build into, a mountain bike wheel or a 650b gravel wheel?

[Matt92037]

MTB. It is going to be a gift for a buddy of mine. Trying to decipher what info is actually on the website, most of the rims dont seem overly wide so they could build up into decent 650b wheels

After googling around found that the rims are probably these.

https://pubwheels.com/collections/mo...41698994356394

So 24mm internal rim width.
I already have a set of Santa Cruz reserve 650b with a 25mm inner width. So these seem redundant, which is too bad as $64 for two rims seems almost too hard to pass up.

Yep they confirmed typo. Cancelled my order.

[Duvivr6]

I received my 35 rim brake set they look alright.

Box says built in USA, cant vouch for it.

Weird you get no rim tape or QR.

In the end a set of wheels for $130ish was a damn good deal
