Strengths: I'm a Pacaderm 240+ and love these wheels. Spin up nice no side flex.Weaknesses: NoneBottom Line: Replaced Bontrager wheels that came with my 2012 ion pro. The front was damage in a high speed decent hit a big rock and the rear was hit by sprinter van. Liked the Bontragers but love these. I Need to contact Rol and had very good response.

Strengths: I've had a set of the Volant wheels for well over a year now and have absolutely no problem with them. They are strong, light and free-wheel very well. They also look rather sharp.Weaknesses: I can't think of a weakness with these wheels, other than there not being a local representative in Australia.Bottom Line: These wheels are great value and are sent quickly and inexpensively, which is good for those if us who live outside the USA. You won't regret buying a set.

Strengths: Strong, stiff, bullet proof and pretty light for the performance that you get.Weaknesses: None!Bottom Line: I have two sets of these wheels, one for each of two bikes, and they are bullet proof! I am 6'3" and around 240 lbs and ride 3500+ mile a year. These wheels run true and fast. I T-boned a 1994 Honda Accord last fall and, of course, the wheel tacoed; though, the legendary Sean at Rol hooked me up with a great deal on a replacement. I you are a Clyde, these are the best wheels you can ride.

Strengths: Good solid stiff wheel. Able to handle the corners well.Weaknesses: Sorry to say that I had some durability issues with the rear wheel.Bottom Line: I love the stiffness of these wheels, I felt instance difference to the stock Bontrager Race Lites on my bike. Great for training and no problem with racing them. I have popped a spoke after 4 months. At 18 months, a spoke has torn through the rim within warranty. I could be a little heavy for this set at 192 lbs. ROL was great for rebuilding the wheel for me. They even include free socks.

Strengths: High QualityWeaknesses: Not having another set for my CX bikeBottom Line: I can't think of anything to say that hasn't already been said by many others on this forum. I would highly recommend these wheels. To date, I've only ever met one other person who owned a set of ROLs which is surprising; they are a great wheel set. I use them for both training and racing.
As for customer service goes, I haven't had to contact ROL since I purchased them (which is good), but I've always heard great things about Sean the owner. ROL obviously has some great Quality Control in place to consistently deliver such great wheels.
I'm hoping to someday pick up a pair of their carbon wheels.
