I've commuted on Mavic Reflex clincher and Open Pros for the last fifteen years at weights up to 215 pounds.
I bent the 400 gram Reflex clincher rim I had on the front for 12-14 years after breaking my leg and growing beyond 200 pounds on some sort of road obstacle (most likely a pot hole) although the heavier Open Pros have been fine until crashed.
If the Open Pros were hand-built by some one competent I'd use them.
