I think they are round.

A bit more info in your posts may come in handy.

MX22 = cheap rim trying to look badass... tall sidewalls, but only a basic U section profile :?

Off the top of my head about three people on here have them (stock on sassies). My opinion is they are tough for d/h / Trail riding but i have destroyed mine doing street/ skatepark work. They just fold.

ive got it stock on my sasquatch they are pretty good rims, i was running 10psi in the back with a dh tube on the sunshine series race which was really rocky and would of been hard on the rims with that amount of pressure the back one buckled a bit only a tiny bit so they are ok, just hope they wont buuckle of my ns drop i built but yeah they are pretty good rims.

I've worked on them quite a few times... they're nasty business. They do the job, but I'd consider them to be disposable. Ride them in to the ground and buy a new rim. Not a bad choice for OEM parts because they're cheap, but I definately wouldn't buy one aftermarket.

I had one as a back rim on my One25. Not a very nice rim.. Looks beefy but flatspots easily. I wouldn't use them again unless I had to.

they are shit and they are cheap arse's cause if you look at the stickers on them they say double wall but they are actually single. well at least it said that on the 02 models
