They roll true, smooth, and are relatively light. Pretty solid rim as long as they're built correctly and not over torqued. Go CXP33 if you're a bigger guy.

I really wanted the H+Son Archetype rims, but got a good deal on the OP. Thanks for the advice on the chain, but like all upgrades, I may end up getting the KMC K710SL chain in the future.
