Description
The Sun-Ringle Equalizer rims proceeded a popular movie of the same name, in an adjunct way that may or may not have lent credit to this rim’s attempt at becoming a trail sensation a decade earlier. It’s that good! While such phenomenal success may have remained elusive, its not due for a lack of trying. Sun-Ringle debuted a lineup of Equalizer rims, each seemingly more dedicated at solving the ultimate performance equation of ultimate balance than the next. Sometimes things take a little while to develop, (try waiting until the 3:28sec mark), and for Sun it eventually came with their Helix TR rims, and then their contemporary Duroc rim series. That’s pretty straight forward.
