Question Teny Rim wheels - UK stockists?

Hi there

Has anyone ever heard of Teny Rim mtb wheels?



I use my Diamondback X-link Sport as an all-weather commuting bike, and I really want to get a set of these wheels after seeing them on another bike. I spent 3 days on the internet hunting them down, and eventually found the website of the Taiwanese company that makes them;

http://www.tenyrim.com.tw/

However, I can't find any indication of prices or UK stockists or distributors on the website. I emailed Teny Rim direct, but had no response yet. This guy with the other bike had to have got them from somewhere - (he was riding a Harlem Yankee Superbike, don't know if they're standard on that model, as I couldn't find their website either!)

Has anybody heard of these wheels and knows how much they cost and where to get them in th UK?

Thanks in advance!

You will find a link on ebay, which is where I purchased mine, they are wonderful! I use them everyday on trails, streets, and whatever else I come across.

By the way, this is my nike. A 2007 specialized rockhopper disc. As you may notice I am missing my front disc, I am waiting on a new one as the bike shop only had one in stock and I put it on the rear. I have carbon fiber handlebars, stem, bar ends, seatpost, seat, and water bottle cage. I'm rolling on Michelin country mud tyres and have just replaced the two rear cages with carbon water cages which aren't shown in the picture.

Cheers!

Chris

Dude, you are a star!

I had totally given up on this thread!

Nice bike

Are they much lighter than bog-standard spoked wheels?

They are heavier than spoked wheels, but they hold up better in a rocky enviroment. I just dropped off my bike earlier at the shoppe. I am having the entire drivetrain changed out to Shimano XTR top of the line components. Should be ready in about 2 weeks.

Kind Regards
