Hello,
i'm french, and i want to know your impressions about Sun-Ringley's Rims. More particulary about "Venus" and "me14a". It is for a competition use. Are they more stiff than Mavic's open-pro and cxp 33? Are they durable? They seems very effective. Have you ever some problemes with this rims?
Sorry for my english,
good bye!

Buy Mavic or Fir rims. They are far better in quality.

Hello,
Can you tell me a little more about their problemes?
I know the Mavic's rims and i search rims which are more stiff, more light, and durable.
thanks

I have heard that the rims from sun have bad quality-control and that they aren't always round when they get to the wheel builder, so the builder needs to have uneven tension in the spokes to have it be true, which makes for a wheel that is not as strong and doesn't stay as true.
