Factory Arrow Racing uses these hoops almost exclusively for anything but downhill. Heck even our Clydesdale sized commercial artist will get a good season of use out of a set of FRX hoops without worries of broken eyelets or pop'ed pins.

Insanely light and strong and they look great. I have yet to come across a problem with them and would recomend them to anybody.

If you inflate your tires to a high pressure the nipple cutouts are very sharp and i poped a tire even with a liner.
