[quote="Sean Hogan"]I admire the thinking behind their construction. They have made a real effort to use carbon in an innovative way.


Seriously!?

Paired spokes on the front? No good, even Bontrager admit that these days...

I agree with Sean, and I think the wheels look fantastic (apart from the graphics, which I'm not too keen on).

It looks like they've passed some pretty stringent tests, so I personally wouldn't have any concerns about their durability, even with paired front spokes (which, due to their unique construction I don't think are really comparable to Bontragers).

Certainly, if I were in the market for a £2k wheelset I'd order a pair today.
