what cross sewup rims are strong? I have mavic reflex, which seems less strong than older mavic gp4.
what other sturdy sewup rims do you use/recommend?
Also I read that deep dish type rims are good for mud. Are there any such sewup rims sold?
Reflexs are fine. My 190lb carcass has been pounding them this season and they're straight and true.

Ambrosio Nemesis is one of the better nondeep sectioned rims. Man they are getting hard to find. Anybody got a source?

I take a gp4 over a reflex any time.
The sidewall of the reflex is really thin, never got more than 5000 miles out of it. Separation is another issue.
Look at ambrosio nemesis or velocity escape instead. Reflex ceramic is better imho, just the regular is suboptimal. There is a good reason why NOS gp4 are going up.
