Ok, some days, you just gush over some quality bike products. And i have to say as your typical bike commuter in the hub and burbs that I get to beat on lots of equipment. However, I have completely put these wheels through their paces and they haven't budged out of true. I just potholed when i was avoiding a wanderer (someone riding a bike with no helmet just moving left and right like there steering is broken, also known as idiots) and wasn't paying full attention. No dents, flat spots, and still true as the day they left the factory. The 1850's have some dish to them and some fancy bladed spoke that cut through the smog better i guess but whatever, they are bullet-proof. Last winters salt, the summer rains, and whatever other grime they have traveled through, they have proven reliable. A worthy purchase. I like reliable shit, simple designs built purposefully. I don't have crabon on either bike, just no need when cheaper aluminum will suffice, stand the elements and a few dings, but that doesn't mean I wouldn't love some fancy EC90 or EnVE stuff but i'm realistic. I bike too and from work and those items are nice but not needed.
i'm done ranting.

Quickly, some sugar free chocolate just showed up in the office...who makes this stuff. Garuanteed it won't be touched, nor should it be!
