Well I'm nearly 19st, not the worlds most graceful rider but I seem to have gotten away with 32h Open Pros for the last 6 months with no problems. I've hit plenty of potholes, smashed into gutters and genrally abused my rims with no problems. Sure they might not survive a stair gap but is a road bike, so don't listen to little blokes telling you you must have 36h deep profile rim.
