mmm... they look promising. what's the non-brand OTP wide rim wheelset peeps were raving about a while back?
I paid a grand for frame, wheels and group so could sell wheels on (which look pristine) and recoup a decent chunk of that to get something less bling but wider I suppose-I'd like them to be sturdy enough for touring duties so would probably go at least 32h both front and rear.
TBH having just gone from Archetypes back to my light slimmer wheels on my summer bike I haven't noticed it too much, less than I did upon switching to the wider rim and thinking it was wizardry. I dunno why that is.
With all the riding I haven't been doing this summer I feel it may be a moot point anyway till by slack legs get sorted out.
