Sorry, Miche as per your 165kg claim.
Sure, I too have seen many factory wheels cope under heavier riders, but the fact remains that if you exceed the warranted weight limit you have zero recourse in a failure situation. Better to go for something purpose built to cope and backed up by a builder IMO. FWIW my current wheelset was built by prowheelbuilder and still going strong. My MTB wheels I built myself, and my next set of road wheels I will also build myself
