  1. I need the ERD for Syncros Big Box MTB rims. I can't find it on Rinard's chart. I will measure it
    with my method, but it would be great to have known tested value.

  2. No worries if it's not listed. Actual measurements are even better than a listing. I've found rims
    can vary. I've measured differences up to 5mm (!).

    Measuring ERD is easy. I use two 250mm spokes. I thread them into opposite holes (with the nipples
    engaged just right), then measure from one spoke to the other (hook to hook) with calipers.

    ERD = 250+250+ measurement. That math's easy to do in my head :-)

    I check at more than three pairs of opposing holes, and I often average several measurements. I've
    found some rims are ovals, but some are squares and others are triangles, etc. Of course they're all
    round when the wheel's done :-).
