    Strengths:Light,smooth,high quality hubs,very easy to make it tubeless,the whole wheel set is entirely made by DT Swiss,Fast rolling. excellent for X country riders,durability,low maintenance.
    Weaknesses:Maybe price,but you get what you pay.
    Similar Products Used:Some Mavic,Shimano and WTB.
    Bike Setup:Hard to say having 5 bikes,but I like high quality components.
    Bottom Line:Not much to say for one of the best wheel sets on the market. The first time I saw it at the LBS it looks like a cheaper one because of it's appearance,Compared with Mavic crossmax,but once they are on the off road,you feel the difference.It worth the extra cash.

    Favoriate Trail:Noble
    Duration Product Used:3 months
    Price Paid: $600.00
    Strengths:Light, Springy, incredibly smooth bearings. Nice little wear indicators on brake track. Pro-lock nipples won't vibrate loose.
    Weaknesses:None really,... Not bullit-proof. No quick releases. A little expensive.
    Similar Products Used:Mavic, many typical 32 spoke handbuilts.
    Bike Setup:Titus Racer X, Sram XO, Fox 80X
    Bottom Line:Good, light, wheels for XC use. Hubs are the best. And they are quiet feewheeling. I am175 andI have taken some chunks out of them on rocks and they are still pretty true. Nice all-black look.
