Xiamen Carbon Speed rims/wheels

[gribs]

Most of the rim explosion/delamination seem to happen when applying quick pressure to seat the tire in, before you put sealant. I delaminated a rim exactly like that, due to leak at valve stem seat.

Ah, that makes sense.

Do we have any profile drawing of the new 78mm rim yet? Haven't seen it at least, but maybe I missed it?

Sorry, we just release these D78CU-33 rims, now we have same spec at 35/40/50/58/65/78mm depths available

And now we are able to do the UD paintless glossy finish as well

Thanks!

I think you may go directly to talk with Peter not on forum

Looks great! You are gonna be flying bro.

What are your thoughts about the new wheel decal design? Particularly the size of the decals in relation to the rim depth. To my unprofessional eye, the decals should be larger to fill out the space more. Similar to Zipp's 808.

I think for the moment Peter might be using the same size decals regardless of rim depth. I messaged him about this earlier, and waiting to hear back.

[Uberflo]

Yeah they maybe could scale a little bit with the rim depth but as the letters are cut, I think the overall look matches the rim.
