After reading many posts, everyone seems to like Phils and its probably worth the money, especially if my fixie is going to last me forever.

Whats the real difference between high and low flange? I know highs make a stronger wheel but how much stronger? I won't be doing track racing, just riding my fixie for training, speeding through campus, store runs. My town does however have some bad roads and lots of brick roads.

I don't need mega stiff wheels. I have Mavic K Elites and I find them plenty stiff.

Rim selection I can deal with and I'm debating over Fixed/Fixed or Single Fixed. I have lots of hills so it may be nice to be able to flip around my wheel if I have to.
