    Price Paid:  $230.00 at LBS

    Favorite Ride:
    Anyhting dirt or many things paved

    Bike Setup:
    Specialized Singlecross, Hutch tubeless, 3/32 chain components

    Summary:
    I do lots of road work on this bike, although it was purchased for cross racing. I got these wheels, last July, because I'm cheap, and so were they. I was looking for the best perfomance gains verses the money spent. Sealed cartridge bearings was enough to suck me in, and especially at the price. Yes, they are track wheels, but they rock on the local cross circuit, and on most of our mtb trails. I actually thought they would have disentegrated by now, but they are still true. Having teh hollow axles made it easy to convert to quick release.

    Strengths:
    Price. Sealed bearings are fast and smooth. Aero features. Hollow axles.

    Weaknesses:
    Could be considered heavy, but they are lighter than the original wheels on my bike.
