Ok this is all on road use...some crushed limestone rail trails but mostly paved roads.

The Salsa wheels do have 700x28 tires and I do check them regularly (a couple times a week...daily isn't required) I run the front between 80-90 psi and the rear at 105 psi.

The other wheels are tubular and the tires are 700x22 and I run the rear at 145 psi and the front at 120 psi.

The shop took the tubulars in the first several times to fix what I will call the wide spoke issue. Any they did one free truing on the Salsa rear and charged me for another...I have done several others and believe that I am doing it properly...it is true, round and properly dished when I am done but it doesn't stay that way for more than a few months.
