Strengths:    First, I'd like to point out, these are no longer $445 MSRP, they have gone up to $535. They are on par with a much more expensive wheelset though. They weighed in at 1600g on my scale (without skewers), very well built and plenty stiff for me (175lbs without gear) and strong. I ride in the northeast where there's rocks and roots everywhere and these wheels have handled the terrain without a problem. I also love that you can convert the 3.30 hub between 9mm, 15mm and 20mm. I have a fork with a 9mm dropout right now, but plan on getting a 15mm in the near future and this gives me the options to switch without buying a new wheelsset.

Weaknesses:    Not the prettiest wheels in the world.

Bottom Line:   
For the price, I think these wheels are unbeatable.

Strengths:    great set of rims. strong and light. tubeless compatible. easy to bed in tires.

Weaknesses:    would be better if it was a tad wider. but you can always get the flows.

Bottom Line:

Strengths:    No flats!! After years of battling flats, I now have been nearly flat free for a year.
Strong rims - I'm 220 lb and ride fairly technical trails and only had to true the rims once.
Much lighter than running with tubes.


Weaknesses:    The hub froze once, but Stans took care of it

Bottom Line:   
These are the best upgrade I ever made to my bike. These rims take a beating and the weight difference makes such a difference in my riding.
