I have to agree with Jasp on removal and installation on HiPeRs, having an airgun helps, thats what I usually do, but I usually take it easy with the arigun as to not worry about damaging the ring, you still have to go around and torque every single bolt by hand so everything is even, or at least I do, fronts arent too bad, rears take forever, but I think its worth it.

If you set the torque value on a electric drill you can get er done real quick.

Hiper rims are a carbon fiber. They will flex/bend but return to the original position. They are also pieced togather so if one piece breaks you don't have to throw the whole rim away.
