So, these just arrived and whilst they look and spin lovely I do realise I may have been blinded by price and not really considered the spoke count. 18/20 seems pretty low for 80kg rider + occasionally heavy bag commuting every day through London's famous London. What do you reckon re their strength, having ridden them? For the price it's not a disaster if they don't last forever, but would like a few years out of them if possible...
