Review
Its size and design is the same as sun rhino lite rims..double wall..But the drilled holes are poorly done, Water and dirt can enter in between the walls..But overall its quite strong, just avoid water trials and nothing will happen... For your spokes try double cross or triple cross...It won't stress the rim...Quite light but performance; same as rhino lite..

Review
rim is nice, i don't know what the other guy is on about but my echo rim is the same width as a dx32, and is perfect. no rolling tires here, 10psi with a 2.5 minion is fine. seems to be strong enough for what i do, and i have landed on it sloppy a couple of times sideways, hard, bung etc. needed truing once but i blame myself for riding it with rather loose spokes for a while. it doesn't feel that heavy in the rear with my echo pure but i havn't used the same frame with a different rim to compare well - the numbers say it isn't half bad though so there you go. the holes are drilled alright, no sharp edges anywhere on mine which is all i care about. water gets in but does it really matter? ridden through plenty of water and it just drains out when you've finished. looks like mud would come out easy enough with a blast from the hose.

on the basis that i got this rim for just a bit less than what a dx32 would have cost me, its a 4 star. if i had payed more than a dx32 then it would be a 3, would have got the dx and drilled my own holes.
