I just put the wheels in the stand after two years of regular service, and they're still round and true. These were $99 for the full wheelset... works for me!
I put the same wheelset on my Big Dummy, 32h: https://www.jensonusa.com/store/produ...+Wheelset.aspx No complaints after 18 months. I haven't had quite that much weight on the bike, but I've done some 75lb shopping trips. Running with 1.6" tires.

Who sells the 36h version? I couldn't find any modern MTB wheelsets with more than 32 spokes at Jenson.
