OK, I'm sure "everything" I have said doesn't contract whatever you have heard. It doesn't help if you aren't going to be specific about anything. If it is in regard to weights....the data, which are readily available on the internet, support my statements.
Edit: OK, after rereading your earlier posts, perhaps you are refering to the maker of the rims....IRO rims are not Kinlins..they aren't even close. It is, however, identical to the velocity Fusion rim as far as I can tell. Its not that the IRO rim is heavy, it just isn't very light either. Its not surprising that some guy built a 1630 gm wheelset with IRO rims (if thats what you meant in your first post), but he clearly could not have done that with IRO (Formula) track hubs and plain gauge spokes.
