Personal Comment: Your experience should be a cautionary-tale for those who want to believe that ultralight rigs are a direct replacement for more robust riggings, as espoused by myself and others
Once again I think you are very wrong. The Emonda he rides is a very robust bicycle, wheels included. Particularly for a light rider with a light load.
There are certainly other ways to build a more robust bicycle rather than simply throwing thicker steel at it. And in the process you get a bicycle that climbs, handles, brakes better. All in all a more comfortable ride.
