True. But they are bombproof. I have a set of 2006 SL SSC (silver spokes, black hubs; you can probably find a decent set on eBay). They probably have 25K miles on them and I just replaced the bearings this spring. They're my regular training wheels and I'll probably use them as CX wheels in the fall.
