I absolutely love my D/A C24 wheelset. They have been my everyday wheels for about a year and a half now. At 210 lbs., the only problem I've ever had with them is that the front wheel needed to be trued after a crash. You can' blame the wheel for my stupidity.
At 140 lbs., you can use whatever wheelset you desire, (and can afford).
