I have them on one of my bikes - Fort William, Inners etc and they have been flawless and I'm not the best rider so they will have had plenty of shonky landings.

Plenty of reviews [url= http://www.mtbr.com/cat/tires-and-wheels/rim/sun/singletrack-disc/PRD_361213_139crx.aspx ]here[/url]

Had a reputation for flat spotting/going egg shaped due to the flat profile not providing much vertical strength.

Didn't have any problems with my set mind you, but I didn't have them long. Mavic EN321's were alway cheeper/lighter/stronger and I've had those for years and the rear is only just begining to eat spokes.

I've used mine for around 6 years for everything from all-day epics to downhilling in Whistler, and they have been absolutely brilliant,

Get a decent wheelbuilder to build them up for you and you will be hard-pushed to destroy them

I have a pair on my DH/FR bike - don't do a lot of long battering DH stuff on them, mostly short runs and jumps and drops, but they've stayed pretty true - and that includes 2 weeks of hammering in Whistler/ BC.
The rear does have a slight flat spot, but nothing to worry about. The wheels are about 4 years old.
