I don't think the Halo rims will last long at all. They aren't REALLY strong. but I guess they will do for now. Looks like a nice build though!silly me i jsut realise i made a mistake it's argyle 318's not 302 i'll go back and fix it up

ha well I have been wanting to get a pair for a while now and I have asked lots of my friends and other riders and they said either. "Well there ok i guess, not the best" and other people have said "The name of the rim is cool but they are very soft and can get damaged easily".do you own some or just heard by other rider's who run them?? looks like the descenders/mtx's are goona be the one's i get..lol
So I am not exactly 100% sure they are bad.
But I have just hear negative comments about them.

i would go for a 24" frame cause then you have a bike that can handle steeper transitions

I agree with Dan
Halos are the way to go.
And id wait until we're back up to about 85-90cents to the american dollar.

i just came to another probelm
what ratio or gearing would be best for dj/street riding, i rode my mate's bike and i think it had 25:10 ratio
the rear cog on the hub is 10 tooth so the second number needs to be 10?
any help would be much appreciated
