I rode mine everyday for the first two years I had them, even commuted with them for awhile and they held up fine, and never gave me any problems. I eventually did relegate them to racing/important ride status but not because of durability concerns. I just didn't want to risk wrecking them on a daily commute, or training/fun ride because they were pretty spendy for that day.
