Strengths: Stiff, aero dynamic, they look cool and sound cool. They also have a forgiving side to them.Weaknesses: sometimes in strong winds they can be a bit
twitchy.Bottom Line: Put these on my Cannondale CAAD 8 and the match is perfect. The bike is fast, stiff and very smooth with these wheels. I use them as an every day wheel and so far have had no issues with them. That... include some pretty rough roads. Along with being stiff, fast and very areo dynamic they have a forgiving side too. I run them with Michelen pro 3's at about 105 pounds and it seems to work. Love them so far and I hope they hold up with every day use. I've put 1000 miles on them.

Strengths: Smooth, stiff, aero, and durable enough for everyday use.Weaknesses: Heavier than most other carbon wheels of the same depth, but it a trade off I'm willing to make for durability.Bottom Line: I picked these up on closeout pretty cheap and haven't regretted it. I love these wheels, they are fast and smooth and with Tufo S33's @160 psi. They been 100% reliable and durable. I use them everyday. My rides average 25-100 miles a day. If I raced I would probably not, I would save them and ride my Neuvations everyday since they have been great too.
Favorite Ride: Anything without cars and wind
Price Paid:
$1150.00
Purchased At: Sierra Trading Post
Similar Products Used: These are my first set of deep section carbon wheels.
Bike Setup: Ridley Excalibur full Ultegra Thompson seatpost, bontrager bar, Easton stem, 16.5 pounds, so it's light enough.

Strengths: Seem to be bomb proof. Super smooth bearings. Look awesome once the decals are removed.Weaknesses: Decals are a bit much.Bottom Line: I love these wheels, especially at the price I paid. They are not the lightest carbon tubulars that I have, but they are the smoothest, and, I believe the most durable. Mavic doesn't make junk, and they don't release a product until it's been thoroughly tested. I think I could probably use these as an everyday wheelset, but I don't. I have Neuvations for that.
Favorite Ride: One with lots of climbing
Price Paid:
$1200.00
