Any CLYSDALE RIDERS out there that use these wheels give me all the pros and cons thanks

Con - they're only been out for a short time, so your chances of getting feedback are slim.

The pros and cons you seek are going to be completely subjective - stiffness, durability, braking, build quality etc. The only tangible consideration is cost and customer service. In my experience (I own 2 sets of Boyds) - hard to beat.

I rode with Boyd this weekend and saw the wheels up close. He makes some nice stuff and is a mo-fo on the bike.

My only beef with Boyd's carbon clinchers is that they're a tad on the heavy side. The 60mm ones are 1680g/pair, and the 44mm ones are 1580g/pair.

I have 8 sets of Boyd wheels and have never had any issues with them at all. Now, mine are the older models, so I cant chime in with the new build, but they look pretty freakin awesome! If you got any questions, give them a call, as they would be happy to talk to you about the design and how it works. Also purchasing the larger spoke count wheels will help with larger than normal riders.

8 sets - are you running neutral support for races?

Call/ E-mail BOYD himself. I had a 19 E-mail correspondence before I made my purchase, he replied at all hours of the night and even on Sunday. Awesome guy, great product, awesome service. I have the old 38mm Clinchers, and I would go deeper on the new ones if I had the need.

I know I'm a little late! But these are great wheels for the price point. I have two sets of boyd wheels. One set is the 60 clincher in a 24f 28r combo. Absolutely amazing! Fast, hold speed very well and smooth. I have used these for crits, road races, group rides and even a 145 mile adventure with 25 miles of pot hole gravel roads. They have only been trued once and that was following the gravel ride. Oh and I'm 6,3 250 lbs
My other set of Boyd's is an older model 38 tubular. These are great as well. I only ride these in hilly races and the occasional training ride before a race. These are the 20f 24 rear combo and I haven't had an issue.
