open-pro's are durable and light they just don't look the shizzle to da kidz
i don't understand why people think London's roads are somehow worse than anywhere else in the country. the roads around my parents village are atrocious, the council can't be arsed to repair them because they spend the money in the towns.
I don't see riders having issues with normal rims there.
the rims used in the paris-roubaix are often 'old-school' open-pro's and other low profile double eyeleted designs if there was some merit in using the deep-v profile on bad roads why don't proffessional cyclists use them?
