Ive had them for two years and have never turned a nipple on either of them. Had em in the truing stand to check a couple weeks ago and they are still within .003" overall runout.
Wow! Toyota should build that pickup with more spokes. Glad you were ok.

I've been running one of the lower end Campy wheels on my CX, and a Fulcrum 3 on my road bike. A couple of thousand miles on each, no babying, I weigh 167, no issues (other than the annoyingly loud pawls).
