Summary:
Bought 2 1/2 years ago, so I've had a bit of time to test them out and find out exactly what's what. Initially very impressed, very fast, light and responsive, though found the rear hub (planet x superlight) unusually loud when free wheeling - planet x assured me this is normal. They make a great noise on smooth roads and climb well, even when rocking, though there is a little bit of flex in the rims.
I've got my moneys worth out of them, but you get what you pay for in the end.
Strengths:
Price! Carbon wheels don't often come this cheap. They are quite fast too!
