The Ayaya World Champion tubular I have on the front of my Yamy is very pretty. I polished it before the build and it has very organic shallow V shape. Light too.

Yay! I get to post these again, the best looking rims on the planet:
No machining, in fact no flat to even speak of, just one smoothe curve from the apex to the tire. EAI Arrow Super Turbo clinchers. Wheeeee..........

As mentioned before, the CXP-12's are really nice. I was originally looking for a set of Campy Atlanta's or CXP-30's but the CXP-12's are a nice shallower non-machined, smooth V with a sharp point which met a lot of my criteria.

on the upside, they weigh pretty close to 600gm/rim so he pays every time he tries to accelerate
(on the downside, once he's rolling
)
