They really look good on the build with the Pirellis. The rim widths help to make the 25mm tires a bit more full than something thinner. Also, really liked the fact you can get a slightly deeper rear wheel as part of the wheelset.

Free hub is definitely louder than I’m used to. I know some people are all about that loud free hub. These certainly check that box.
Nice! Glad you’re enjoying them. I’ve just mounted mine and will take it out this weekend for a 3400ft climb. I’m a little concerned with the descent and some crosswinds. I know exactly what you mean with the hub sound, at least it’s a tad deeper sounding and not so high pitched. In any case, enjoy that machine you’ve built!!
