that's what i've heard about the Open Pros. good ride, stays true.

sorry for all the questions and a hijack, but can someone give me a $.10 explanation of why i'd want something aero like a cxp33 or deepV as opposed to something lower profile like an Open Pro? i'm not very heavy, 160lbs tops, and the roads i ride on aren't THAT bad so the bombproof strength of a deeper rim isn't a weight, or crater riding concern....
