What is the relative strength of carbon vs an alloy monoblock though? I would be scared to death about hitting a pot-hole!!
I saw some test a couple years ago and they are very very very strong

If you have video of the test, please post it up.

I love the look of those wheels. However that seam at the bottom is not so nice.

Good catch, looks like it was just that one wheel though. Awesome looking wheels.
