Strengths: Color scheme and reliabilityWeaknesses: NoneBottom Line: This set came stock on my Cannondale Supersix road bike. I wasn't expecting much coming off of a set of Ksyrium SL's but I have been impressed so far. I have even hit a few potholes and I am still running true.

Strengths: Great training / entry level racing rim. Looks like a rim that costs twice the amount. Mine came with Mavic smooth rubber tires as a promotion from Mavic. They are very responsive in the high speed turns and feel very sturdy in the tight turns.Weaknesses: I haven't seen one as of yetBottom Line: I got these to replace 12 year old Rolf Vector rims. Very good quality from a top quality bicycle manufacture. I would suggest these to anyone that is looking for a decent rim at a reasonable price.
Price Paid:
$329.00
Purchased At: Trek Store, Santa Ro

Strengths: Reliable
Easy to true
decently fast
Breaking powerWeaknesses: maybe weightBottom Line: I will not pretend to be a wheel expert, I'm a college student and my history of bikes & wheels is still fresh (even thought I've always been an avid cyclist)
The breaking power of these wheels surprised me (maybe my sram brakes play a role in that) but the breaking is smooth and linear while being strong.
Aero wise: they feel nice and fairly fast ( never rode full aero's but compared to a regular wheel (round spoke + more spokes) these feel fast
They are good for sprints but as I am only 140 my weight might reduce the flex.
I did hit a pot hole very hard in a fast group ride, both my tires were pinched flat. The wheels came out true as arrows.
Later that month I got hit by a car from behind (car must have been going at the very least 45mph) the back wheel was out of true. 2 weeks later when I was able to walk, I got a spoke wrench (black park tool) and trued it so fast! I was amazed how fast and easy it was to true (compared to any other wheel I trued/build)
I can't complain about these wheels. I am itching to get a lighter wheel set but I can't justify myself that anything is wrong with these.
I bought them used with more then 1500 from a bigger fella (6:3 or 4) and I have put probably almost 1000miles on them and besides the car hitting them they have been perfect

Strengths: Tough and inexpensiveWeaknesses: A bit heavy and a slight blip at the seamBottom Line: These wheels came stock on my new Cannondale CAAD10-3. Gently file down the misaligned seam blip, tweak a couple of the bladed spokes so that they are oriented correctly, and you are good to go. I weight 200 lbs. and ride hard, but have not had to true them after 1200 miles. I'll buy something lighter for events, but these are very good training wheels.
