At 2112g the Superstars are the heaviest, but then they're also the cheapest by far. Ryde's 32-hole Edge rims are a cheaper evolution of its similarly asymmetric Trace hoops, and while not amazingly light - a claimed 545g - the result offers 3mm extra width over Superstar's identically-hubbed DS25-rimmed set, for no extra weight.
That 3mm might not
sound much, but it bolsters high-volume tyres against flopping and rolling
under cornering. The extra grip (for little straight-line drag) from any
given tyre is noticeable over typical 21-23mm rims.
The hubs are
Superstar's excellent Switch Ultras, which convert easily to any axle or
cassette, while spokes are Sapim and bearings are from SKS.
