I like that their Torch 24 is 24 mm wide (internal) and is Tubeless compatable.

there are about four threads already going on the new I9 wheels

I was looking for a new set of wheels and I'm super interested. I've been checking I9's and various distributor's web sites and they haven't updated it (as of last night). I generally try to wait until they work-out the kinks, but I might have to guinea pig these.

Sigh.. Nothing added to their website. Syntace announced their new wheels a while back and they're still not available in the US.

I guess both companies are doing me a favor so I can't pay $1k+ for the privilege of being a guinea pig.

I like the look of the I9 wheels, but there is one major issue.

Everything is proprietary. Replacing broken parts is a pain in the ass seeing that most LBSs don't stock their stuff.

I would like to try a pair out. When you get a pair to test you should let me beat on them for a week and see if they are worth getting over my current set of wheels (2012 crossmax).
