i have a set, i'm 195 lbs an they're super solid, run a phil lockring an forget about it. bolted up perfectly w/o spacers to my sugino 75's. another reference, my buddy has logged over 1500 street miles on them without a glitch. he's 150, no trixs just rides hard.

lol wtf, really? i just had an argument with someone about this and convinced him he was wrong; just checked my bike, and i did indeed use the mavic lockring.
i was really convinced i didn't... that's kinda funny and or embarassing. i hope he doesn't read this board.
