from swampscott, ma. Date Reviewed: September 3, 2004 Strengths: good looks, stiff, excellent acceleration Weaknesses: after 6 weeks I bent the quick release handle on the front skewer. I was told by the company they needed to beef-up the clamp. Replaced it free. The next thing to go was the rear rim. I must have gone over a pothole but if I did it wasn't very deep as I never felt it. I had these wheels for about 300 miles. I called the company and they refused to warranty it. The rim developed a bubble in the braking surface. They said it was impact damage. I've had light wheels before and never had this kind of problem. It cost me another $280 to have it rebuilt. This time they offered me a Prima-RS which is a beefed-up rim that they should have built it with the first time.
