Cliffhanger Polish

[Bryan H]

Does anyone have photos of a cliffhanger rim in polish? Or a rim in the MSW silver? Im having a hard time finding photos and deciding which one to go with. Im building up a sergio green susie with mostly polish parts but wondering if the polish on the cliffhanger will be overly shiny. My goal is a classic look, any photos or opinions would be greatly appreciated!

Hey Bryan,

Below is my Bombadil with MSW matte silver Cliffhangers (I believe the matte silver finish is from anodizing).  The fenders are polished (and a pain).  The rims are very low maintenance.

Hope that helps.

The polished is quite bright is the same on all Velocity rims and it doesn't necessarily show up well in photos because it's so reflective. Such is shiny polished aluminum ! Circles has all the colors available to see on their website. It is what it is.

If you're using other polished parts then the polished rims will go well with them, but it's not like the satin finished version would look out of place. Do you mind periodically polishing your rims ? It doesn't take that long and wouldn't need to be done often, just depends on you. If you want labor free rims then forget the polished, but hah hah, it's not like rims don't get oil and whatever on them that require wiping anyway !

Here's my Bombadil with polished Cliffhangers. But they're always so dusty that they usually look anodized...

Thanks for the replies, I ended up going with polish! And wow Laing 48 spoke? Are you using it for touring? I went with 32 for my Susie but now possibly regretting it and should have gone with more spokes!
