Max rider weight on Hed 3Cs?

cam117 · December 3, 2006, 12:41pm

Is there a maximum rider weight for Hed 3 Carbon wheels? I searched around and it seems that the consensus is that the regular H3s are pretty bomb-proof. Does this same thinking hold for the carbon rimmed model?

Thanks

Eleventy-seven gagillion pounds… just like the regular H3’s… of course you could call or email HED for the answer

So , I’m guessing a 200lb rider wouldn’t have any problems on the H3Cs?

We used the H3’s on our tandem. All up weight was 330lbs.

I’m not aware of any weight restriction. I have Canadian riders above 240 who ride H3C’s with no issues.

I guess babysitter could use them then

Probably the strongest wheels ever. I can’t imagine weight is ever an issue with these wheels. I assume you can ride a regular spoked wheel, and the Hed 3 will probably be far stronger than any other wheel out there.
