AR46 wheelset with Industry 9 1/1 hubs, Sapim CX Ray spokes, and brass nipples on a 2020 Giant Defy Advanced 2. Finished with Schwalbe One TLE 700x28C tires, which required two tire levers and a Kool Stop Tire Bead Jack to squeeze onto the rim. Once on the rim, they were easily inflated with a standard floor pump and held their pressure without any sealant for several days. No chance I'd be able to get the Schwalbe tires off the rim on the roadside if I needed to make an emergency repair. Took them out on a 60 km test ride this morning, and even with 20 km/hr winds they handled very well. I was concerned that the deeper wheels would be more susceptible to crosswinds, but I never felt unstable. I also crossed a variety of terrain, from smooth trails to poorly maintained roads to small sections of gravel, and they actually felt more comfortable all around than the stock aluminum wheels. Overall, I'm very pleased with the quality, feel, and aesthetics.
