Review
I've done ten foot drops on these rims with out taco-ing them and I think that's pretty damn good for an XC wheel. They accelerate very quikly and just keep goin'. A little expensive but it's tottaly worth it for the amount of performance you get:)
Pros
Ultra light stiff rim, rolls forever
Cons
can scratch easily.
Review
Great wheel set for XC racing or performance oriented riders who want the most out of there ride.
