Strengths:    Price, strength, eyelets

Weaknesses:    wear indicator

Bottom Line:   
This is for a 36h Open Sport laced with DT 14ga spokes to a 105 rear hub that I trued and tensioned. The wheel holds up fine, no complaints about weight or strength. However, the continuous external wear indicator is bad, doing what you might suspect - creating a ridge in the brake pad which in turn make the pad stick to the rim after hard braking. The ridge has to be cut off periodically to fix this.

They look about the same to me on paper. Any big differences? What I`m after is a budget wheelset for JRA in town, frequent 40-60 mile day trips, and occasional light offroad. I   Read More »
