But with 450 gram the DT 1.2 rim is actually 40 grams leighter than the cps33 for a set. That makes THE difference. I have their brochure here and it says: 510 g for the DT1.2 rim. Gr, Derk |

The one I use most is a 32 spokes rim that has been built by a cheap german mail order company for half the price I pay at the LBS (price paid = 159 Euro's with Ultegra hubs and Sapim spokes). These wheels are perfect. They never needed truing, which I can't say of the wheels that cost me twice as much at the LBS. Gr, Derk |

Well, if bike companies can state the bike weight (but without the
pedals), perhaps a rim company can state the weight (but without the eyelets)? Qui si parla Campagnolo wrote: Just weighed it and it's 450 grams, same as a OpenPro...$70..not sure where they got 580 grams..ala the web site |

The pair with DT 240 hubs and DT Aerolite spokes weigh about 1440 grams for the pair (lighter than many boutique wheels) and as Derk says, have been very reliable. Alan |
