I'm looking into trying out one of these deeper aluminum rims on a new build.
Statistically, the only thing that separates these two is 4mm in depth and 50 grams; I seriously doubt that either difference will be noticeable to me.
What I'd love is some feedback on is the finish/build quality of those rims (I've owned kinlins before; two were great, one had the brake rim/thump issue). Given their limited availability, I'd guess that only a professional wheel builder would have experience having used both, and I'd love to hear about it.
Short of that, and more realistically, I'd love to hear from anyone who has built/ridden wheels built with either rim. I'm trying to get the wheels built now before the weather warms up and I'm (hopefully) spending more time riding bikes than talking about them.
Thanks in advance.
