Yeah I had some on my last build, they're very thin and light, but once built seem very strong, considering I'm a bit of a lard ass aswell. I wouldn't be doing any drops of anything other than a curb on them personally though as they were so thin (although I have nothing to compare too other than MTB rims so this may be usual road rims).
But having said that I was used to burly halo SAS rims on 3" tyres before that.
The ride one them is also extremely hard !! Could have been linked to the aluminium frame and fork too, but the standard profile rims I'm riding now on my giant seek 0 feel a million miles more comfortable, and still with an aluminium frame.
If you like to ride with as little flex as possible they're great and do look sexy as hell, but was way to hard for my personal liking, depends what your into to be honest.
