My Soul S2.0/GP4000s/Veloplug build

I just received the wheels Saturday. Totally shipping time was a little less than 2 weeks, the package arrived in perfect condition and no damage to the wheels inside.

The wheels are beautiful in person. I don't have a scale but they are unbelievably light. They are replacing the boat anchors on my BMC. I used yellow veloplugs and Conti GP4000s tires. I am saving over 600 grams compared to my aksium/lithion wheel set The plugs fit in very snug and the tires were a nightmare to get on. It took both of my hands and my girlfriend using a tire lever to pop the bead on.

I will update when I have 500 miles on them
