Looking for a set of blue dh wheels, who makes them?

I've found the following:
-Azonic Outlaws. They are heavy, strong, and cheap.
-Spinergy. Expensive and I don't know how strong they are. Blue spokes only.
-Industry 9. Blue spokes and hubs only. Expensive too.

Just get a wheel build on dartmoor parts. Huge selection of colors and raider rims are so cheap it's not a problem to replace them if something unlucky happens. Apart from some bad incidents they are also quite durable given the price/weight ratio.

Thanks guys. Definitely staying away from spank wheels because they are difficult to get tires on and to change a tube. Very similar to the THE wheels that sold on here a while ago. Biggest pain in the ass, especially on the trail.

The Spike I'm running on the back of my dh wheelset rocks. Mounting it ghetto tubeless was a pain, but with a layer of tape (and no ghetto tube), it's running tubeless now with a Mavic valvestem no problem at all, and mounting was no more difficult than any other dh rim I've used.

Spam: I've got a set of blue Hadley hub built wheels for sale...

Better than having wheels like mine that roll tyres off the rim when riding, blown a few tubes that way, not fun.
