I've never used them.
I heard you can build wheels with them.
What kind of information are you looking for anyway? "I built a wheel with Phil spokes and it exploded", "I built a wheel with Phil spokes because they have a P on the head instead of DT"
Spokes are spokes.

I wasn't aware they made spokes [EDIT: Dur, okay. Read the website. Nevermind]. I know they make spoke cutting/threading machines, however. I had some made by Icycles on their PW machine and my wheels haven't melted down or turned into a raccoons or anything.

Well, they aren't that bad for me since I work in a shop, and would be ordering them at cost, and individually instead of getting a box of 100 dt's that I am going to use 32 of. I was also going to be ordering some other PW stuff and was just going to add them to the order. I have just never heard them discussed so I thought I would see if there were any opinions from people that own them.
