I agree with both calv and seau. Angie's 28h radial Aerohead is super light and has proven to be really durable - but she only weight 110 lbs. I would never want it on one of my bikes. My 32h A23 laced 2x is plenty light and amazingly strong.

This current "low spoke/need to make my wheels as light as possible" fad is a little ridiculous.
