Strengths:    Quality, lightweight 27mm rims, lightweight hubs, price.

Weaknesses:    None so far.

Bottom Line:

I have nothing but good things to say about this wheelset. I like the looks, the weight, the 20mm front hub, and so far the reliability. The wheels easily converted to tubeless with Stan's. Compared to many of the pre-built wheelsets on the market, the SunRingle Chargers appear to be quite the bargain.

Strengths:    Light enough, rims seem ok. I really can’t keep the rear hub together long enough to write up a long term review.

Weaknesses:    The rear free hub is very weak. I'm on my third hub rebuild in 6 months. They are nice enough to warranty the parts but it’s a pain that it keeps blowing up.

Bottom Line:

Save yourself the walk out of the trails and the aggravation. My 29er is down for 1-1.5 weeks every hub blow up. Don’t make the mistake I did, spend a little more money and get something that will hold up under use. I would have paid more of a price up front for nice wheels but now the cheap wheels are costing me twice as much since I now need to buy something nice.
