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

They just look really strange, not so much the back but the front.

I like them, pretty much bomb resistent on NYC streets. Its on the heavy side, I feel I can accelerate faster on my old school 32 spoke wheels, but once its rolling is pretty cool.
the other down side besides the weight, the rear hub is kinda loud. (no louder then the mavics)
