Sorry I should have made myself clearer.

Does anybody have any FEEDBACK on these rims? As in has anybody used these rims and if so how did they hold up?

They're crap. The shop where I work has a rental fleet of Kona Dawgs that all use these rims, and they are ALWAYS out of true. We true and tension them after every ride, and it's all but guaranteed that next ride they will come back wobbling and hopping like crazy.

wheels coming out of true is more of a indication that the build is crap not the rim.

now if the rims were actually bending, flat spoting, or dinging. that would mean they are crap.

since they are on rental bikes i'm assuming they are factory built wheels and probably have no spoke prep which is prolly why the keep coming out of true.

I have a set on my bike and they have low hours but I have about 25 DH runs on them with out any flat spots and I have not even had to re tension them since I built them. Ill post pics later.
