I suppose wider and deeper is good, if they don’t weigh a ton. I really want something pretty light and pretty tough, and narrow us okay.
I'm seeing closer to 500 grams on their page, but yeah, it wouldn't be my first choice either. Was mostly thinking of ways to compare like to like.

My wheels last long enough that I'm willing to spend a couple extra bucks for whatever seems the coolest. If you're up for classic box-section rims, the Pacenti Brevet 700C comes in at around 450 grams, too.
