Spank Spoon 28 features

Quality

Quality is without doubt one of the most important factors that we consider when buying bikes, parts, accessories or clothing. As you’d imagine it’s especially important when buying Rims. Let’s take at a look at the sort of things you can look at when trying to ascertain the quality of Spank Spoon 28.

The first thing is material. Looking at what Spank Spoon 28 is made of will give you a really good idea of the quality overall. Take a look at the specs above and you should be able to see the material. It’s then up to you to decide if it meets your expectation.

Similarly you’ll also want to spend some time looking at the features too. Again the table above, listing the features will give you a really good overview. However you should think about the sort of features that you’d expect when buying new Rims. It’s worth writing a list of the “must-have” features so that you don’t end up compromising and missing some important features, or alternatively end up buying an unnecessarily high specced product.

There’s also a lot of merit in checking out the brand of the product and looking at the various brands that are selling Rims. Brands like Spank are of courses extremely well respected in the cycling community so you know you’re getting a fantastic product with them. But if you’re undecided on your product you should write up a list of brands that you’d be happy to buy. It’s a great way of filtering and narrowing down the number of products when you’re searching.

Next up you’ll want to think about the price and use that as a guide to set your expectations of the quality. If you’re buying the cheapest of the options in the Rims category you should probably expect it to not be of as good quality as the most expensive. It sounds obvious of course. But this is where you can get a bit clever and use your combination of features, specs, materials and other factors to work together to get a really good quality product at the best price. We often draw up a list of “must-haves” and use these as filters when shopping online so that you’re only seeing products that meet your criteria. You can then sort by Price>Low to get the best deals.

Comparing Prices

Price, as you would imagine, is the most popular reason for someone buying one product over another. It is the single most important factor in choosing the majority of products we buy. The same goes for Rims.

It’s at this stage of the buying process, when you’re looking at different options, that you should set a budget. Do some research to understand how much roughly you can expect to pay for the sort of level of product that you’re looking for. Then match that to your own personal circumstance and how much you can afford to spend. This will really help you in narrowing down the right product for you.

Spank Spoon 28 Reviews

Reading reviews is an amazing way of getting a good feel for a product without actually being able to try it or see it first.

There are two different types of reviews, and we also recommend reading both.

1. Expert reviews – In the cycle industry there are loads of really reliable trusted resources for expert reviews. For example if you’re looking to buy a new bike, BikeRadar Bike Reviews are great.

2. Customer reviews – these are probably your best resource for information. There’s no finances or influence involved, they’re purely just honest reviews from customers that have bought and used the product. The reason we love customer reviews so much is because no matter if their view is good or bad, there’s a very good chance that it will be honest and unbiased.

Our best advice is to head over to Chain Reaction Cycles and read the Spank Spoon 28 reviews there.

Based on what we’ve seen in terms of reviews for Spank Spoon 28, it really does look like a great buy. So for the review score, we’ve scored it 9.1 out of 10. The average review score for all products in the Rims category at Chain Reaction Cycles is 4.1 out of 5.

Owner reviews, as we say, are one of the most important pieces of research that we can do before we buy. So, with that in mind, if you do go on to buy Spank Spoon 28 or another similar product, like Blank Generation XL BMX Rim reviews or Stans No Tubes Flow EX3 MTB Rim reviews we’d love you to leave a review in the comments below.

• Description: Spank Spoon 28 – 20″ MTB RimA strong and lightweight MTB rim for the next generation of superstars; Spank’s Spoon 28 range may be the little brother of the Spoon 32, but this MTB rim is just as strong, light and resilient. This MTB rim may be perfect for kids but that doesn’t mean that Spank skimped on the tech – far from it! This MTB rim is super-strong and features the high-end tech that you find in the Spoon 32 range. This Spoon 28 – 20" MTB Rim is ready for a custom build so you can hit the trails with style, speed, and confidence.Super-Strong and Super-Light Alloy MTB RimSpank’s Spoon 28 – 20" MTB Rim is made from an advanced alloy via Spank’s innovative, bespoke manufacturing process. Ensuring that each alloy MTB rim is incredibly light and strong to withstand the most aggressive and technical trails, Spank’s MTB rim also features their BeadNip™ technology for supreme comfort. Features: Material: Six Series Aluminium Alloy Rim Dimension (Depth): 22mmRim Dimension (External Width): 28mmRim Dimension (Internal): 23mmSpoke Count: 32hTyre: ClincherPolish anodised finishWeight: 340gTechnologies:BeadNip™: Improved tyre fit. Another secret of Spank’s patented OohBah™ profile is Spank’s double BeadNip™ technology. The OohBah™ patent includes the addition of a second set of ‚Äúnips‚Äù on the inner tube well, which ensures that the tyre always remains in the bead-seat, even when riding at minimal air pressures. With Spank’s OohBah™ patented rims, you can ride the tyres you want, at the pressure you want, on any terrain‚Ķwith far less fear of flats! Traditional rim designs include only one set of bead hooks on the vertical walls or rim flanges. The vertical hooks are crucial for tyre retention. Without the bead hooks, the bead can slip inwards, leading to snake bites (pinch flats). In tubeless applications, BeadNip™ also acts to trap the bead, preserving the seal between tyre and rim, enhancing air pressure longevity and reducing annoying "burps".MGR: Micro Grain Refinement – processes such as extrusion, forging and tube drawing can increase the strength of alloy materials by reducing the grain size. Spank uses state of the art proprietary metal forming methods, which further improve grain size consistency and orientation, and significantly reduce grain size beyond that of their competitors. No other bars or rims are subjected to the number of drawing steps or level of refinement as those offered by Spank. This leads to greater ultimate strength, toughness, and ductility…meaning confidence, comfort and safety.Buy¬†Spank Wheels & Tyres from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World’s Largest Online Bike Store.
