Price Paid:  $300.00 at yellowjersey.org

Bike Setup:
bianchi 1885
centaur/chorus mixup

Summary:
Great training wheel. My build is heavier with stainless spokes and veloce hubs. Great all around wheels - could be entry level race for sure. I am 155lbs and my front wheel just needs the slightest bit of truing after about 2500 miles.

Strengths:
Great value, fairly decent weight for price, strong(curbs and all)

Weaknesses:
not very "aero" head-ish, hard to mount some conti's but no big thang

Similar Products Used:
deep-v's

Price Paid:  $0.00

Favorite Ride:
Tunturi fixed conversion

Summary:
Favorite rim so far. Much lighter than the deep v's or any other rim really, and the silver color is really brilliant and looks great. They might not be as sturdy as others but i recommend these highly.

Strengths:
Lightweight, great look. These make skidding really easy too. Usually priced very reasonably also.

Weaknesses:
Lightweight may take away from durability, and crosswinds are a problem sometimes.
