English term or phrase: shallow rims
I just bought my dream bike and it is time to get some suitable wheels. I have my eye on those super light American Classic Spirit wheels. However, I'm not sure what style rim to get. It's either the 350s (shallow) or the 420s (deep). Why would anyone go for the heavier (and more expensive) deep dish rims vs. the lighter traditional ones?

agree  Svein Hartwig Djaerff: vil nok foretrekke "smale" felger, for det går jo på bredden!
