Review: Berd Hawk 30 Gold Wheels – Ultra-Light and Subtly Forgiving
@wburnes: I always have Berd build the wheels, although I have replaced 2 spokes that got damaged in a crash before.

Review: Berd Hawk 30 Gold Wheels – Ultra-Light and Subtly Forgiving
That's weird I have been riding Berd spokes on my Enduro wheels for several years and they've been great, never had to true the wheel. Of course that's a 475g rim with 32 spokes so that might be the difference. The first time I rode them I noticed a certain "smoothness" or "quietness" to the ride but I wouldn't call it compliance, after that I never thought about it. Not the hardest shredder in the world, but I weigh 195# and routinely podium in the gentleman of a certain age class and ride plenty of double blacks.
