So we had the Velocity Deep V, coming in at 520g roughly. A well hard, rigid, deep v rim when spoked properly will take a right evil pounding and hitting and come out wanting more. Along arrives the B43 as Velocity drop the bomb with this real heavy weight.
So what exactly can we say regarding the Velocity B43 besides it is such an awesome looking rim? Well the Velocity B43 weight is a genuine issue it is 770g for the 700c. That's a whopping 250g heavier than Deep V's. It is a triple, indeed that is triple walled rim which gives that huge weight problem. Its profile makes the Velocity B43 much deeper at around 43mm then the 32mm V's.
Velocity Wheels point out its design is more aerodynamic and provides maximum visual impact. Whilst we agree with the impact, in particular when you go for bright green polka dot, aerodynamics at that weight is up to be inquired. Weight is only negated by aerodynamics if achieving a regular and consistent rolling speed. To be truthful it is the tricks crowd that's going to be taking out the cash for these in addition to those who live in a pothole wasteland.
The B43 is simply made for tricks and is begging to be flashed and dumped on really hard in a real 'mine's bigger than yours' testosterone fueled trick fest. But be cautioned, if you want the flashiest shades, then for a Velocity B43 48h the colors it comes in are restricted, so get on that phone and order now while you could have to wait a while. But boy would it be worth it.
Looking at the practical aspect though, these loud and proud rims look and feel stringer than even the Deep v and they are most likely more powerful than those Mavic Deemax DH rims as well in actuality. So what you are getting is the overall performance and strength of a carbon rim without the cash stripping cost of the former. In fact the Velocity B43 price must come in under $100 for the rims by themselves. Add a bit on for the build you could probably pick up a complete set of built Velocity B43 wheels for about $250.
Along with the tricking community, these have been basically designed by Velocity with track training TT and racing in mind. They are readily available in non-machined sidewalls in case you have a preference and the Velocity B43 Gold really looks the business. It is really a standard clincher rim however and is the usual 19mm wide
I think with the Velocity B43 it is definitely going to come down to individual choice and a lot personality. In case the long term build quality meets that of the Deep v I think we are able to say that this is one of the toughest and hardest rims around as well as the heaviest. It can also be one of the coolest and is going to be pretty popular just for that look. So get your choice and go with it.
