From memory I also read that the braking performance was very poor from several different places.
A guy I rode mountain bikes with bought a set for his mountain bike. He loved them, until they cracked after a few months.
I went with a set of Campag Zonda wheels. Loved them.
I brought Zondas as well very happy with them .
Probikekit is having a sale at the moment with the code itk10 you get 10% of.
They are sold out now but Camapgnolo bullet 50mm wheels where down to $800 delivered.
They are carbon with an alloy rim would buy that over a $500 full carbon wheel might pay to watch the UK bike shops some good prices lately
