Description
This is the biggest and baddest rim in WTB?s comprehensive line. The LaserDisc DH combines an extra wide, 34-millimeter profile with all the proven LaserDisc features (including I-Beam, Unbendium Bulge and Global Bead Seat). The result is a rugged and reliable hoop that can withstand anything from road gaps to cased landings to boulder fields.

Pros: Strong
Easy to maintain
No problems

Cons: Kind of heavy....but it is a DH wheel.

Recommendation: This is for the actual wheelset, not just the rim. I have this set on my Airborne Taka. They've been put through a lot and have stayed true and performed well the whole time. These wheels are strong! I did manage to break 2 spokes on the front wheel though. But I think they did very well considering it was a bad wreck. I went over the bars at about 25 MPH and the bike flipped a ton of times on gravel and concrete. I feel 2 broken spokes isn't bad at all. I ended up with 3 fractured ribs, a fractured face, concussion and many cuts and nasty bruises. So the wheels are stronger than me, haha.
