So for those that went on the Ome ride know that i bent the shit outta my front rim :oops: :evil: , so im looking for a new set of rims and have a question or 2?

so in the process of looking at rims i have noticed that the hubs are VERY expensive lol. whats the difference between the 20mm thru axle and the centerlock and the 6 bolt?? i mean i could look it up but im just to lazy to read all that info lol.
For example i was looking at DT 340 6 bolt 20mm thru axle and the DT340 6 bolt and there is a price dif of 20 bucks.

what the 3 is better in your opinions??

20mm hubs are for 20mm hub specific forks, The RS Reba you have is 9mm QR, so you will have to get a 9mm QR hub. As for center lock, thats a shimino thing. If you were to get that you would have to get new rotors. The set up you need is a 6 bolt, 9mm QR hub.

Yes those will work, anything that says 6 bolt , and QR skwers will work. If you plan on throwin down some gnar lines as you progress i would take a look at these http://www.jensonusa.com/store/product/WH501A02-Easton+Havoc+Am+Wheelset+08.aspx They are the same price and few grams heavier but will take more of a beating!
