yup,take a look what happened....http://www.pinkbike.com/video/145444/ ;ill give the rims credit though they took a hard ass hit and only bent a little too.spokes did dam good to only only jus6 completly mesed
I'm not worried about the rim at all. I ran them on DT 240s with competition spokes and brass nipples on my S-Works Enduro and they were incredibly strong for AM/FR.
