Does anyone have pictures of Eclat Polar Aero rims actually built up? Ive googled my heart out but cant seem to find any decent pictures of them. The look similar to Odsy Aerospace rims in the pictures ive seen, id like to confirm that! Cheers guys.

I know its a bike check video from some youtube *** and I apologize, noone should have to sit through this shit. It helps if you mute it. But thats all I could find of them built up.

With enough lube and brute force, anything is possible.

That's what I've always thought, although I've also been told "ee-klat" is the proper way to say it, so I really don't know.

The actual French word is certainly pronounced as you said, ay-clah.

This. You defo sound less of an idiot saying it how it's written than trying to pronounce some French word.

They seem to run slower than other tires, that's true. I run the same setup, but normal GLHs.
