19" Snowcat rim

I’ve just learned that burro bikes, wierd looking mountain bikes on Monty tires, use 19" Snowcat rims. Does anyone have any experience/comments on these rims?

Cheers, Greg


interesting.

one of those ski atatchments would be mad on a uni.

aparently the snowcat rims are 32 hole and custom made for burro.
the rims we use are 36.
if you are looking for an alternative from onza or monty rims, the arrow raceing have a 19" trials rim.

talk about a Moulton A.P.B. want to be!

hmm,
they say that the bikes come with 19 x 3" tires… i wonder how these would be for trials :thinking: Anyway, those bikes look pretty cool,
thanks,

Ryan

According to the website, the Snow Cats (at least the 26 and 29 inch versions) are single-walled for lightness. That would be too weak for trials, I’m sure.

Re: 19" Snowcat rim

I spoke to that guy a year ago. They are Monty 2.5" tires, not 3" like he
writes.
You are using the same tire on your Bedford 20" Hard Core Monty Trials
unicycle Ryan.

It’s bad enough… tire side wall sizes vs actual sizes… without extra
sizes being “created” as well.
