There’s a reason for the popularity of these rims: they ride excellently and strike a good balance between weight and strength. They handle side winds quite well – not the best we've tested but easy to control when things get blowy. Build quality is great and the hubs feature silky-smooth quality bearings.
The one problem area is the braking: there’s no rim coating or brake track treatment so slowing from high speed yields the normal bare carbon rim performance trait of being a little mushy before suddenly kicking in with a lot more oomph.
