Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Sun-Ringley

Hello,
i'm french, and i want to know your impressions about Sun-Ringley's Rims. More particulary about "Venus" and "me14a". It is for a competition use. Are they more stiff than Mavic's open-pro and cxp 33? Are they durable? They seems very effective. Have you ever some problemes with this rims?
Sorry for my english,
good bye!

Buy Mavic or Fir rims. They are far better in quality.

I have heard that the rims from sun have bad quality-control and that they aren't always round when they get to the wheel builder, so the builder needs to have uneven tension in the spokes to have it be true, which makes for a wheel that is not as strong and doesn't stay as true.
