Strengths: I have the CL version. They are reasonably light, laterally stiff and I can really feel the aero advantage over my old wheels.Weaknesses: NoneBottom Line: These wheels are a definite improvement over my old wheels. My old wheels were very nice wheels-dt240 hubs with velocity aerohead and deep V rims built by Dave at Speeddream. Truly one of the best wheel builders in the country.
The Heds are noticeably stiffer. No brake rub under hard climbing. Almost no lateral flex at all. The 23mm rim allows me to run fast and smooth at 60-70psi with 700x35 tires. They also give the bike a much more stable feel on bad pavement and gravel. You can bomb sketchy downhills one handed. I could never do this with my old wheels.
They make the whole bike feel more stable and controlled no matter the condition of the road.
Favorite Ride: Spring Gravel
Price Paid:
$750.00
Purchased At: Ragnorok 111
Similar Products Used: Dt 240 Velocity Aerohead front and Deep V rear, built by a master.
Bike Setup: Kona Jake with a mix of road and mtb parts. Under 20lbs and after 10 years of year 'round riding (Minnesota)I can say this bike is as tough as they come.

Strengths: Rolling resistence, handlingWeaknesses: NoneBottom Line: Fantastic wheels. They roll incredibly fast. I notice when coasting I often roll faster then the riders next to me. They also handle well. I feel like I can descend faster on them than on my other wheels.
