I have aeroheads on my mtb and deep-Vs on the cross bike. Thousands of miles on each, never needed truing. They are on the heavy side, though.
The Deep Vs are heavy, but the Aeroheads compare quite favorably to the Open Pros:

Aerohead claimed mass: 405g
Aerohead O/C claimed mass: 400g
Open Pro claimed mass: 435g

From weightweenies:
Aerohead measured mass: 435g (from 1999, YMMV)
Aerohead O/C measured mass: 395g
Open Pro measured mass: 430g average
