Hi, I was wondering how you are getting on with the dp18 wheel set? How do they compare to the mach1's? I'm also in the middle of a new build and considering either of those. From research the differences are:
Mach1 rim - 490g and 25mm depth

Dp18 rim - 590g with 40mm

Then obviously the whatever weight of the hubs/ spokes/ tyres on top of each wheel.*
What are your thoughts? Cheers*
