They are heavy (relatively), but strong and very vertically forgiving/compliant. I have two sets, one 36 f&r and one 32 f&r tied and soldered. These are my favorite wheelsets competing with my HED Ardennes, HED Belgium Plus on Campy and Archetypes on WI. I don't race anymore so ride comfort and lateral stiffness, reliability and durability take precedence over weight and aero.

I do recommend using tubeless tape as the interior is very shallow and can make tire mounting difficult with thicker strips, or near impossible with Velox and tight tires. I also recommend making sure the builder does a final true with tires installed as both of my sets de-tensioned noticeably after tire install.
