    Very nice, would love a set for mine but just love the gold wheels to much... If only they made them with a gold weave! :)

    The best bling plus purpose upgrade I ever got. The weave is hypnotic.
    Love 'em, so much classier than Oz etc. (imho). Save the gold for the sprocket.

    Lovely wheels.

    I was chatting to a mate who's a armature racer a few years ago about Carbon wheels. He was saying they will not last as long as cast alloy one's

    I have no experience of carbon wheels or what they would be like 4,5 or 6 + years later. Anyone of was this just pub talk

    Do many racers/teams use them, Oz rep. at the bike show a few years ago cast doubts on their durability (but then he would wouldn't he).

    I have a mate who is a mechanic at BSB level and he subscribed to this POV. My BST s were date marked April 05 and when I sold the bike in 11 a couple of dealers expressed doubt about on going durability when I was looking for a trade- in. So ' pub talk' is to an extent trade talk too? As far as I was concerned they were as good as ever ( got them in early 07) and I've dented ordinary rims a couple of times across the years and the BST s are strong, but you have to keep them clean and the ceramic bearing option is a good upgrade. If I had the money they would be on my blade.this probably does nt answer your question mate but it's my experience. Neither Oz nor Dymag look as good to me.
