Anybody heard of a 10 seasons old carbon wheel ?
A set of Derbys has served me valiantly. Trips across North America, daily rides, shuttle laps, a thousand rim strikes, summered at Snowshoe for past 9 years ..
It's the DH version that was warrantied to me a few months after breaking the AM/trail version. The other one has been the wife's park bike rear for a couple seasons has a blue oval sticker but is also a DH version.
Nice run for sure! I killed a derby DH in a heli accessed run years ago. My WAO’s are going on 6 years, still good.
Are those the same as Nobl? I have a set, maybe slightly younger and not DH... Stiff as a board...
I have a set of Nox/I9s I got in 2014 that are still going strong, they're on their 3rd or 4th bike now...
I still ride on Derby rims that I bought and built back in 2013 when he launched the brand.
This thread is blowing my mind, because I've had pimples that lasted longer than some of my alloy wheels.
I have a set of wao strifes that I got used on Brett Rheeders old bike from 2021. 70+ whistler days, multiple provost days, a ton of cases, rim dingers and I’ve never even touched a spoke. But I do run cushcore. I love carbon.
