I bought one of the IRO wheelsets a couple of months ago when he was having the 25% off sale. I didn't go for the deep-Vs... just the house wheelset.

Anyway, the quality is excellent... I'm glad I went for this wheelset over the obligatory Deep-Vs. It just bugs me that I have no idea who manufactured the rims. Does anybody have any idea?

They're definitely not aeroheads. The braking surfaces are machined, the profile seems a bit higher, and they're highly polished. Honestly, they look a ton better than aeroheads do.

I haven't heard of Kinlin. Is that an overseas OEM?

They're Velocity Fusion rims.
