Not really that much else to say really. I can't guarantee that nothing has ever touched the rims, but they certainly don't show any signs of it! Hubs run smooth. Halo allen key skewer on front.

I'll get better pictures for anyone who wants them at some point but they are the wheels pictured on this bike here:

"With the Open Pro CD they have created their most reliable, all round rim yet. 'Couche Dure' or 'hard layer', these rims have evolved from the fantastic Open Pro range becoming more durable than ever before."

Marketing bumf. So, more durable than Open Pro. Not as a durable as ceramic?

Woops sorry, yeah it's basically a cosmetic finish, whereas the ceramic is meant to make braking better.

Opinions differ widely on whether or not it actually does though.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
