I have a pair of mtb Deep-V's, got the rims at a bargain price from CRC when they had them in a sale (they don't seem to do them any more sadly...). Got an extra bargain when they turned up dented.
They are bomb-proof, but really stiff even with double-butted spokes.
I do like them, but I wouldn't have them again for commuting.
I find the cross-winds a nightmare on them, surprised if other people don't find the same? Maybe they're worse in the smaller size?
