    I was thinkiing of buying a set of theses wheels but am a little concerned about water getting in and damaging the rim and spokes.

    I would appreciate any comments.

    Thank you

    They can take in a little water but it doesn't harm then. I have had enough water in mine to make me sound quite literally identical to a washing machine on a slow spin going down the road but all you do is take them off and shake them for a minute and it flies out the drain holes and spoke holes. It has to be a really wet day, not light rain, heavy rain with puddles and/or throwing buckets of water over the bike when washing it in order to take on water.

    Its no big deal though. They are designed for it, hence the drainage holes.
