you wont find any mate, unless a local bike shop has some stashed away. the next drop for them in this country is end of march and all those are sold. just find a shop and get on the list will be your best bet.

crc list them as in stock but a lot of times they simply lie!

I've had a pair since December 05 and have never seen 1 other person with them while out riding. I'm not saying I won't, just that I haven't.

A reason not to get them is that the Camo paint finish is pretty weak. It scratches and chips way easier than the black anodized MTX's. I have had both colours since Dec and the Camo's looks much worse for wear.

i'd say stick with your current rims until you have to change them.
waste of money otherwise.
if you are set on getting a new rim then i'd go for the sun mtx (plain) because it is a very stronger light durible rim.
however i haven't used the deemax's
