I rode Dirty Kanza on a set of American Classics a couple years ago. They were sturdy. They were round. They were BOMB proof. They were slightly lighter than a set of cast iron wheels. (Their weight claims are more than slightly optimistic.) The amclassics are part of my inspiration for going to carbon.

But thanks for the recommendation. The spec sheet makes them look very good. (A 32-spoke wheelset weighing in at 1459g? What's not to like? Except that mine weren't within shouting distance on the high side of 1600g.)
