whats the diffrence between blue label and red label??

 

[245stroker]

the thickness of the aluminum to make the rim. red labels are .190 thick and I believe the blue ones are .160 thick.

 

[mr_3_0_5]

so the red label are better then the blue?

 

[timsyfz]

Blues are .125, Blacks are.160, Reds are .190

yeah it says however that the .160 are sufficient for normal riding conditions(non racing i guess).I figured though if I was going to spend extra on alum. rims what is an extra $20?

 

[blasterfreek30]

i got the red lables and they r a great rim for the price, very strong, spend the extra$$$ and get the .190's

i was just wondering what the diffrence was i have red labels on the bike now. but the bike im picking up today has some blue labels on it.. just wondering what was better and why.. thanks guys..

The Blue labels are soft and light good for duning. I personally like the Itp T-9 for trail riding. They are .190 and about the same price Douglas and no label to partially come off.:-D
