Who here has Light Bicycle rims? What is your opinion of them? Do you run them tubeless?

I've got a 55mm set of u-shape crabon from them. Dave at LMNH said these crabon was some of the nicest rims he built.

So far using them on normal clinchers and not tubeless. But they run really smooth and with the wide rims and 35mm tyres it's so comfortable and fast on my everyday commute.

Also got the 55mm U shaped but running as clincher setup, so easy to build.

3 pairs, one road, two MTB. They're great. I run the MTB rims tubeless but not the road ones. The road rims are quite old and rather predate the era of tubeless road rims.

I asked this in the wheel building thread and the consensus of about 3 posters was they're good. I think some of those posters were the kind of people I might piss on if they were on fire so they're probably good.

I'm still undecided. FLO are maybe twice the price but still cheaper than ENVE by £600 and have some aero pedigree. You wanna save postage and buy some at once?

EDIT: Was probably @danstuff and @dubtap I've just suggested I would piss on. :)

Only if they were on fire, mind.
