Joined this site just to add my thoughts regarding this wheelset, which gave me and my friend constant issues...
They feel great when riding. But they always, always had a trick up their sleeve. "hiiiiisssss" as they mysteriously found a reason to ruin my day.
Rim tape was checked countless times. Retaped just in case.
Nothing sharp inside. Checked countless times.
Multiple tire types. Seemed to happen regardless of PSI being 100% of spec for tire, or 95%, or 90%...
Always happened, but at random times. An hour in, a day in, a week in. Always from left field.
I'm heavy. The friend I gave it to is light.
These things are haunted. We both examined the hell out of them and determined they're a lost cause.
