I have seen the pictures of busted Spinergy wheels and I have read the stories that accompany them. They don't really scare me off though. Just the fact that so many of these wheels are still around after 2 decades (of use) says a lot, if not enough, about the quality of these wheels.
Go for the Spinergys, I'm sure they will look great on here.
Afaik the main concern at the time of the ban was in case of crashes.
They didn't like the fact that the wheel could become a shredding saw once snapped.
