So, it sounds like the Wabi's may be strong enough for my uses. The CXP-33 definitely are and are also well regarded, but heavier. I don't have any feedback on the open-pros - are they considered to be less strong than the Wabi or about the same?
I know everyone seems to like the deep v's - I would need the machined sidewall since I run SS. So are they somewhere between the wabis and the cxp-33 as far as weight and strength are concerned? Also, If I bought the Wabis I would need a freewheel - so that adds a little to the cost if I get a shimano and a lot if a get a WI freewheel.
