Since then they have sold others. After 5,000 km they are still perfect. We run 650B wheels for more adventurous unpaved riding but these wheels have seen more than a fair share of rough roads, potholes and abuse.

As to why I actually went with Woven, that's probably harder to answer. This tandem was a special 25th anniversary present to ourselves and we knew we would be riding it for a long time. I wanted everything about it to be awesome. The Woven wheels are reasonably light and incredibly strong. They aren't cheap but the price is fair for what they are. I talked to them about the application and they were confident that their product would work on a tandem. They look fantastic. I honestly could not be happier about the choice.
