I don't have any issues with Bontrager wheels.....my Race Lites have done a pretty good job I must say, even when I nailed a giant rock at 23 mph that resulted in A) a big crash, and B) an out-of-true wheel that ended the ride. Brought the bike to the shop, and they were able to get it trued up and as good as new. Didn't break anything, which kind of surprised me as the bike, along with me, went flying upon impact.
