This wheelset has the qualities of strong wheels (high flange rear hub, heavy bladed spokes, deep section ally rims). My biggest concern is quality of materials, lower spoke count rear hub, and "J" bend spokes. At a lower spoke count, the "J" bend is the weak spot in the power output. I would seriously consider these wheels for myself if the spoke count were 32.

Will that wheelset hold up for a 240lbs man?
