They are a little "squeely" when braking though. I don't know if that goes away or not.
The 202 clinchers? I think the squeal can be taken care of with some brake pad adjustment. I've almost pulled the trigger on carbon wheels so many times. When we rode the Tour de Valley I had those borrowed 404s. Come to think of it they squealed a bit too. They were awesome but when caught in the t-storm I couldn't stop!
