I just bought one of these Dimension model WE8689 rear mountain bike rims at a local bike shop. Seems to be of very good quality, is AMERICAN MADE, and has what is condsidered to be the strongest, best spokes in the business. Has a Shimano free hub, has a rubber boot covering one axle end and ... if you use those Bell brand dense rubber tube replacement rings (No Mor Flats) you're in for a VERY pleasant surprise because the tire mounted almost effortlessly using a pair of $4 standard plastic tire mount tools (I use Kenda Kross Plus Wire tires size 26 x 1.95)
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this rim for any mountain bike (I have a '96' Diamondback highly sought after and for good reason ... it's early year high end stuff)
I would use this rim on a newer bike as well. Buy with Confidence ...
