Strengths: This is the most underrated DH rim on the market, it kills anything from Mavic or DT both in strength and weight.
Weaknesses: Hard to get in Australia
Bottom Line:
I've had this rim on the rear of my bike for over 2 years now and it is still perfectly round and true even after 2 seasons at Whistler and many DH races, its very hard to flat spot, much stronger than Mavic 721 and lighter too, you won't regret building up a wheelset for DH with these rims!
Bike Setup: 2 years on a Giant Glory and now on a Yeti 303-RDH.
