• They are strong spokes

    They're strong, but they may not be stiff enough for low spoke counts on road rears. Some are fine, others not so much. There are various factors, such as rim properties, rider weight and strength, riding style and perhaps above all how much wheel flex the rider and bike will tolerate without something getting rubbed up the wrong way

  • I have cx rays in some of my rears. Fine in the 28h gravel wheels, but in the roadie with 24h and a fairly deep 50mm I managed to scrap the paint of the frame with a slightly misaligned (by 1-2mm) wheel doing hard sprints. At 6'2" and 68kg I'm not exactly a track sprinter, won't recommend to anyone bigger.
