Mavic Open Pro, CXP33 or Mavic Classic Wheels (4 posts)
|  Mavic Open Pro, CXP33 or Mavic Classic Wheels | E Man Jun 1, 2001 6:48 AM | | I am a big guy (6'2" 220lbs.) and I need a REALLY durable set of all around wheels. What do you guys suggest?? |
|  re: Mavic Open Pro, CXP33 or Mavic Classic Wheels | Mike Prince Jun 1, 2001 8:47 AM | | I'm 6'4", 200 lb. and have used Classics Pro for 3 years. They have never required truing after over 10,000 miles. In fact, I'm getting ready to replace the rims with Open Pro's. A great wheelset. 2001 models are much more expensive as they are using the ceramic rims. Hope this helps |

I am no lightweight at 179lbs and the roads in upstate New York can be rough, especially early in the season. I have hit a couple monster holes that of course gave me a flat but I have yet to true them. |
|  re: Strong wheel sets for big boys | Hans Jun 4, 2001 2:22 PM | | The rolf wheels are my pick, they are better at higher speeds,than climbing ,they may go out of true a bit but never out of round, I like the Mavic reflex 32 hole wheels for climbing. 6'6" 235 lb. |
