Yes they have. They were the hot ticket when I built the wheels back in 95. You have to have a tensiometer to set them however. If you over tighten they will break more easily than steel. I need to rework it before it gets ridden, but I've lost my reference for my tensiometer and Wheelsmith wants $25 to send me a replacement. I've trued them maybe twice in the original mileage on the bike. Not to brag, but I was a damn good wheelbuilder.

I'm impressed, frame and all! All I did to frames was straighten them out when kids slammed into copings, curbs and whatnot. I miss my shop, it was a fun business. Not much money though.
