You bring up a good point, Eden. Aero profile can add weight. My 200+ lb hubby has two sets wheels Aerohead rims (with OC on the rear) and loves them. They're standing up just fine to his largeness.

Ok' I'm back.
SK, I'm also on the "grande" side. Actually I misspoke about the Deep V's I meant the Aerohead OC's .
Talked with my LWG (local Wheel Guru) - he wants to do deepV's with 32 3x rear. I I'm only going to do the rear at this time. I was asked weight and intended purpose, He thought the Deep V's would be more bulletproof. I need to some follow up with him tomorrow, so I'll let you know what transpires. I haven't put down any earnest money yet, so I can switch. I've actually ridden the Aerohead's before in the Easton Orion Guise
I wanted to go local just in case there's an issue - I'm sure re-do the wheel that Joe Blow from Toad Tunnel Town built would sit REAL well. And mark has done a lot of stuff for me in the past
As Far as Brevet riding, I'm sticking with the shorter stuff, as least until I get a less crazy work/Life balance. I've got a few bites, but they're still for the mainframe stuff, and I'm trying to get some "spiffier" things to stick on the ol' CV
Now to put tires on the wheels I just borrowed- it looks custom may becoming a lost art from what I had to pick from
at last!
