nothing to do with riding in the rain but I didnt want to make another
thread, A friend who rides trials bikes said the reason that they drill
rims is not to save weight but to reduce the risk of snake bites, I
cant remember the reason he said because he didnt remember what he was
told but I think he said something about it help equalise pressure. I
thought this sounded wrong and still believe the reason its done is to
reduce weight, can someone clarafy?



so does anyone know the correct reason/reasons for drilling rims?
