I haven't ever seen or tested the Dyad rims, but they look like they would be pretty sturdy. I like that they have the wider 24mm rim.

there's no wait, as the Velocity rim is mine until the OpenPro is built. and yes, the 24mm rim is just fine for me as I ride 25mm tires. not sure how wide the OpenPro is (19.6, it looks like). I think the price will be similar.

given that, what say you?
