After a few days of searching out info here and trying to decide on a new wheel set, I think I am going to go with the i9's with arches. I still however want some feedback as to whether these wheels will suite me well or not.
About me.....
I'm 175lbs. and ride a rigid El M in central/western VA as well as frequent trips to western NC and W.VA.
I'm starting to get into the whole racing thing and need something lighter and more stiff than my current heavy XT hubs with delgado disc. I'll also be doing endurance races on these as well and need something reliable. I thought about going ztr 355 but worry about their durability. I'd like to go with the Flows for strength and width but am not big on the weight penalty.
I ride fairly aggressively but try to pick clean lines and ride fairly smooth.
Do you wheel buffs think I'm making the right choice for my scenario?
