Strengths:    light and stiff

Weaknesses:    none so far

Bottom Line:   
Bought them online at 55% off retail.

These wheels are stiff and light for DH wheels. i've ridden them really hard and they are still true, unlike my DT Swiss on my AM bike that need truing every 10 rides or so.

i had a pinch flat once and didn't realize it until it was too late (it's hard to tell even on rocky terrain when you have 9" of travel and going at high speeds). i applied the brakes before a drop off and started skidding, this is when i realized i was running flat. i couldn't stop in time and was forced to drop. landed pretty hard and was sure i screwed up the rim, but when i finally stopped and inspected the wheel, the paint wasn't even chipped.
