Re: Joining the fat bike club this week.
Seen them in action and was tempted due to the 200g saving over a Darryl, but holding out for the new Surly MOBD's as these are Tubless ready and the BR710's aren't (but go ghetto tubeless fine)99percentchimp wrote:Slightly off topic... Anyone used/have experience of the DT Swiss BR710 rims on the Sonder? I might try those for another wheel build project... be my first go at fat wheels on Hope Fatsnos.

Re: Joining the fat bike club this week.
Several mates have 710s and run them tubeless with ease. I'm impressed and will probably get a set some day.
Re: Joining the fat bike club this week.
I run br710's on a hope fatsno rear hub, on a Sonder. They work fine and there are zero issues with tubeless. Check the previous pictures.

Re: Joining the fat bike club this week.
Thanks for the comments on the BR710s.... been tempted and thought I would enjoy the wheel building challenge again. Good to hear they work well ghetto tubeless... be my first attempt at tubeless with big tyres (currently lazy version of Schwalb light weight tubes with Stans in there - has worked very well).
