from Durham, NH Date Reviewed: April 13, 2001 Strengths: Awesome LOOKS, VERY Strong...all of you that broke them, don't deserve to have these babies - I race downhill, have had these wheels for 3 years, and not one problem, I have made huge jumps, hit major bumps, stumps, and rocks, and these wheels stay true longer than any other rim! Aerodynamics, and strength! Weaknesses: None, except the SPINERGY sticker peels off (I got new ones for 5 bucks) Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Anywhere Duration Product Used: More than 3 years Price Paid: $750.00 Purchased At: Philbricks Sports Similar Products Used: Mavic, Rolf Propel, Cane Creek, Bontrager. Bike Setup: Haro Escape 7.2 with Two wheel Disk at one time, had to switch to XTR V-brakes - no disk mount on Rev-X wheels. I think spox has them...anyway, spinergy offered me to swith With no fault return to get a pair, but I love the rev-x too much to trade them in!

from Salt Lake City Date Reviewed: September 2, 2000 Strengths: As a front wheel, stiff precise handling. Really communicates the terrain you're going over. Low maintainance. Weaknesses: Heavy. Funky valve has made keeping goo-filled tubes inflated a pain; this has translated into a lot of pinch flats for me. And I just happen to really need goo because of all the thorns inthe areas I ride. I stayed away from purchasing this for the rear because of the additional stress. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: desolation lake Duration Product Used: 2 Years Similar Products Used: Spoked wheels with King and assorted Shimano hubs. Bike Setup: First was on girvin fork, now on Z-2 Atom

from Garden State ... USA Date Reviewed: March 16, 2000 Strengths: 3x strong compared to titanium laced wheels. 2x compared to stainless steel laced wheels. Thick rim profile & width makes this one of the stiffest wheels I've ridden. Haven't gone out-of-true, yet. Weaknesses: Don't ride in strond cross winds! Unless your really very very experienced rider. Valve extension rattles whenever I hop or ride over a pot hole. No fix. 1.5lbs heavier than conventional wheel-set. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: CHimney rock Duration Product Used: 1 Year Similar Products Used: straight gauge stainless steel laced wheels? Bike Setup: Cross country/messeger/trainer bike. 99%aftermarket.
