Right, the Stans Crest's im running at the moment at a little narrow 21mm internal width running 2.3/2.4 tyres. Noticed Superstar have an oddment rim sale plus 25% off so would be silly not to rebuild a wheelset with something wider. Question is how wide?
Spotted some interesting rims 36mm internal 40mm internal, to wide?

This would be for general use for XC only I would stick to more around 24mm.
