Strengths:
Strong sturdy wheelset.
Weaknesses:
Not very light, but if you are buying these do you care?None to speak of.
Similar Products Used:
Rhyno Lite with XTR.
Bike Setup:
Specialized Enduro (2005 Model). Mostly stock except SUV wheelset.
Bottom Line:
I bought these after I blew out the stock shimano hub Specialized put on. They have performed well. I do a lot of climbing and descending and they have held up. One of my friends has a pair on his Giant Reign and they have help up great as well. They are not light and I use them as all mountain wheels.

Heavy duty, solid rim

HUB!

Bottom Line:
These wheels are diesel - way too heavy for my sort of usage. I blew the rear hub out twice on this wheel set, and both times I was over 2 miles from the trail head. I'm really disappointed in the hubs...

Bottom Line:
Good value wheelset but I've been chasing pawls for the freewheel and fear the hub contact may now be blown. I'd get service after every 5 calls or so when they were Ringle, hopefully the service will improve with Hayes' ownership.
