Strengths: Have stood up to some everyday riding and never had a problem. The brake surface looks like they day I first rode them. These have somewhere around 2K miles with no problems.Weaknesses: none so far!Bottom Line: I bought the front wheel to ride on my aero bike with my rear disc. Too many of my duathlons are hilly so I wanted to get a set and sell the disc.
I am starting on my second year with these wheels. They started as race only but I like them so well I ride them on my aero bike and my Cervelo SSC-SL. Love , Love , Love them! Have never had a spoke wrench on them. They are super light and climb like a dream!
Favorite Ride: hills, flats, wind as long as I am riding
Price Paid:
$700.00
Purchased At: Ebay

Strengths: They're stiff and really good for heavy sprinters (I weigh 220 myself). They're still light and accelerate amazingly fast.Weaknesses: My rear was out of true after only 30 miles, and had to be trued. It happened again after the first race, so my friend who owns a bike shop looked over it, retrued it and adjusted the tension on the spokes, now they are all good to goBottom Line: I got those wheels from our Ritchey sponsorship, and I do really like them. They are stiff, strong and aero.
Accoring to A big aerodynamics test in Europe's biggest Cycling magazin, they are the second most aerodynamic wheelset, only beat by the Zip 808s. The rim is a Zipp 404, hubs are Ritchey. It's got bladed spokes and external nipples, which makes it easy to maintain.
The rims are light and the wheel accelerates and sprints liek nothing I have used before. And I have used a lot of wheels before (and I also have broken a lot of wheels)
