26" Rims

Looking for 26″ Rims for your 90’s mountain bike? We got you covered. We have a huge range of 26inch rims in our warehouse, for rim & disc brake.

We know it can be hard to find 36H rims these days, but don’t worry, we’ve still got them!

Whether you will be restoring an old vintage bike, or simply replacing worn rims, we have the solution.

If you are considering an upgrade of your rims, we definitely recommend ‘MSW’ which is a Machined Sidewall rim. A machined sidewall is a better gripping surface for your bike’s brakes. This makes your rim brake bike safer to ride in the wet. You’ll find this isn’t exactly a new invention, but not every rim out there will have machined sidewalls.

If upgrading is your intention then you will be looking out for D/W or double wall rims. This means that the rim surface that your inner tube is touching, is separate from the exposed rim. Double wall rims are stronger than single wall rims. And this is why they are almost a common standard now. The double wall of the rim gives it strength against forces acting on the rim from the side, ie when turning.

If you need help finding the right rim, get in touch with us friendly folks at Abbotsford Cycles & we can help!
