Bad quality of sample I got. They said if they had and order big enough they will fix the mold.
Order should be 1000-2000 pcs.

I ment tubeless 
not solid, I used to watch my dad change his own tires in the Soviet russiaā¦he used a crowbar to get the tire over the rimā¦dont see why we couldnāt just use a screwdriver to stretch the tire over a rim.

They donāt give a geographically triangulated flying fuck about your requirements. Youāre speaking to a Shenzhen yes man. The answer to every question is yes even when the answer is no.

There are so many things you need to think about bud. solid tires above 25mph literally spin off the rims when they expand. Think hard here

In china you can actually get baby carriage wheels rated to 50mph thanks to the lucrative hobby of baby racing.

It is clear that the probability of success is low, so if we have to pay a bit more and go with a more local factory, I am all for it. I think others would agree.

will your wheel feature 28mm or 22mm bearing seats?
asking for those of us with bigger axles
@surfnacho seems there are a lot of peeps traveling the same directionā¦
your inner tube valve stem will be problematic in you designā¦
@kaly has had hubs on pre-order for a while, Iāve yet to see these out in the wild but I trust ernesto to come through with product soonā¦
Iāve even played around a bit designing somethingā¦
others are adding spacers or widening existing hubs for a whileā¦ I find 140mm ish tire diameter to be a sweet spotā¦
