Submitted by L'il Matt a Weekend Warrior from Murray Bridge, South Australia
Date Reviewed: November 1, 2007
Duration Product Used:2 Years
Price Paid: $350.00
Purchased At:Brook's Cycle Depot
Strengths:Build quality (sealed bearings, DB spokes, center lock or 6 bolt disc compatible), low cost, servicability.
Weaknesses:None yet found.
Similar Products Used:OEM wheelset.
Bike Setup:'06 Ironhorese Warrior Expert, Marzocchi XC 600 Retro fork, Sram X7 drive train, PRO XC bars, Truvativ Team stem, FSA crankset, Shimano pedals, Prorace Carbon seatpost, Selle Italia saddle.
Bottom Line:At around 1800 grams per pair not super light, but an reliable, servicable, well made product that has (so far) given me 4000Km of trail and XC riding with no problems.

I'm a relative light weight (65 Kg/145 Lbs) trail rider, so I can't vouch for those of a heavier build or more aggressive riding style, but if you are looking for an excellent value for money product and don't care about the "bling" factor (real or percieved), I can highly recommend these wheels.

Four flamin' chillis all round!
