Haven't ridden them as much as I'd like but fine so far on local trails and in the Peaks. Hoping to get out for a big ride this weekend...
LBS have been riding a set of the 29er wheels for ~6 months with dirt wizards and 2.4 x or trail kings can't remember which without issue. We both like the clicky freehubs, rims seem to stay straight after blundering down rocky stuff (he's lighter than me though...) and bikepacking round Wales last summer/autumn. Seem to give tyres a similar shape to the 29er Blunt 35s I ran on the Karate Monkey (will have those rims for sale shortly...)
For disclosure: we received them from Halo to test before they released the rims, if I have to return them (and didn't find a spare 550£ for AC Wide Lightenings) I'd almost certainly buy them again.
