I didn't hear many complaints about people breaking the old versions, so I'd like to see a rim with a focus on cutting some weight as opposed to adding more strength. They are supposedly making the BERD rims which save like 100 grams each, which shows that it should be possible. I've been looking at these rims for a while, but the weight is about the same as an equivalent Stan's rim so for $600 each it didn't seem worth it at the time.
I am impressed they got the price down to $450 though. That's cheaper than most well made overseas options. These will probably be my next rims.
