Optimized (that is, aero) for 28s but will easily take wider. If you want "optimized for 30" from an aero point of view, I'm not sure.

I'm on the GPs because they come in a 28-hole drilling, at the expense of some weight.

Caveat: disc only. You won't find rim brake hoops optimized for 28 or 30c though, I don't think.

$1000.00 a rim, I would consider this a bit pricey, no?

Thanks, all. There are several names I hadn’t considered but will now.

I second NOX rims out of Tennessee (Knoxville, get it). I have the Falcor 36s. Built up by John Jones of Buelton, CA with White hubs. Extremely happy with them. Very durable, light, easy in the cross winds.

$750 for a carbon rim..well, I'd say that is firmly in the 'crazy expensive' arena.
