My roommate killed his open pro ceramic in about two months of street riding. He wacked it out of true constantly. He wasn't a big chap, it wasn't the build either but he was just rubbish at avoiding pot-holes and the like. His Deep V is still running pretty true after a year or so of riding SF streets.

If you're riding urban then Deep V or CXP 33, otherwise you will need to whip out that truing stand more than you'd like.
