so this past summer i hit something in the road and bent both rims. they are the stock KTM rims (Behr). im looking to replace them. i was just going to replace the rims (not the whole wheel assembly) with Excel or DID and just reuse my OEM hub and spokes, but i also wanted to get them powder coated, and go tubeless. Ive been looking at getting the Alpina wheel assemblies (then i could just get everything i want in one stop). obviously the Alpinas are more expensive then just "building" my own set.
my questions are: are the Alpinas worth the price tag? are they a sturdy wheel? i dont want to hit something again and be doing this all over next year. i know that the OEM Behr wheels are relatively "soft", so i know i dont want to replace with OEM. i just want to know opinions from you guys about the durability of Alpinas, DID and Excel.
also, does anyone know if the Alpinas are powder coated or anodized?
i posted this on SMJ with no response....as usual
