Wrong.

I have had Spinergy wheels, Aerospoke wheels, 36 hole spoke wheels, 32 hole spoke wheels, disc wheels, etc. and never once did any of them explode from hitting a pothole at an above moderate speed. I rode the Spinergy Rev X wheels (front and back) for 6 months and put over 1000 miles on them, still as solid and true as when I received them used with well over 5000 miles on them.

I'm not buying into the hype of exploding wheels, tragic losses and catastrophic failure.

People need to just chill out and not worry about what other people do and just ride their bicycles.


Ride the wheels for aesthetics, pleasure, weight, who the **** cares.
