It's a great rim for a touring bike, but if you own a road bike with limited tire clearance the Dyad might be a problem. IIRC, 700x28 is the smallest tire you can squeeze onto a Dyad; ideally I think you'd want a 700x30 or 700x32. On many road bikes, 700x28 is the size where you start to have problems squeezing the tire past the brake pads.

If you want a wider rim for a road bike, I can recommend the Velocity Synergy especially the version with off-center drilling. They're a hair narrower than the Dyad, which means you can shoe-horn a 700x25 tire onto them. The off-center drilling means that spoke tension is significantly more even across the drive and non-drive (or disc and non-disc) side spokes. IMO, this will lead to increased longevity. I used the Synergy OC when I build wheels for my touring bike and have been very happy with them so far.
