High Tensile Rim
You can tell if you have them by the weld , it goes across the rim in a perfectly dead straight line, visible on both inner and outer sides. I beleive they were made from one strip of steel then welded,very strong/light and never appear to rust ,or very little , and yes painted Silver.
I have them on a TJS with Greeves Conical Hubs, the bike is so light.
This will sound Nerdish, but just put a H/T Rim, WM3 X18 (powder coated)
on the wives kitchen scales, 4lb 12oz. Wonder what a chrome/Steel one would be ?
