front wheel rim, pattern or original?

(1/1)

MIKE550/4:
can some one explain to me the difference in the rims on ds site

pattern 41 pounds  d.i.d.
original 59 pounds

are the original ones better quality i would presume ?

thanks

Dave M:
Not really sure Mike but also have a look on the Hagon site.

I got my rear rim and spokes from them.

Whole job including re-lacing was

Bryanj:
did was oem anyway but sometimes DS pattern ones arnt stamped did
