Strengths: Look, Weight, Price.Weaknesses: Only a weakness if you use the rim for something it shouldn't be, but it flat spots bad. Heavy hits will dislodge spoke nipples.Bottom Line: a Good Value for the buck XC rim, as I got the pair for about 200. They fair well as an all mountain rim, handling most smallish drops, NOT FOR URBAN, NOT FOR FREERIDE and most certainly NOT FOR DOWNHILL!!!! I don't know how they hold up on dirt jump because I don't do them.
Favorite Trail: Ontario
Duration Product Used: 6 months

Strengths: apparently its cheapWeaknesses: really weak! i tried whipping the back end out while doing a small bunny hop and the rim buckeled so badly that it nearly touches the frame on both sides.Bottom Line: These things suck! If your just riding around the place they're fine, but as soon as you do something stupid, chances are they'll buckle.
Duration Product Used: More than 3 years

Strengths: Reliable, strong for their size, light weight.Weaknesses: don't take really heavy landings too well.Bottom Line: These rims are pritty good for their width and weight, they hold my 2.35 highrollers with no worries, the only bad thing really is that if you land heavily they could flat spot because my rear rim has.
Appart from that they're a good rim ONLY if they're standard on the bike.

Strengths: I was a little bit afraid to buy this new on our market product. Especially on the rear wheel I considered something stronger. However I'm really nice suprised for it. Despite I'm quite haevy (90 kg) and very often I was wearing additionaly my son, I have not noticed any problem with both (front & rear) rimms during last year. I performed also some mountains trips in rocky area and I could say rimms were really tested.Weaknesses: up to now - noneBottom Line: These are my first brake disc rimms. I've been using them on both rear and front wheels 36 spokes version. No problem has been noticed.
