Just over two months after ordering, the genuine Alaskan snow-bike rims have arrived. They look great. These are single wall rims with large lightening holes. Each rim weighs 855g and a rim/tube/tire is 2500g. That is 200-300g lighter than the Large Marge rims from Surly.
These things are massive, almost cartoonish. I love 'em. I'm waiting on a Spot 94mm 32T chain-ring guard and everyting will go to Spectrum for Powder coat.
