There are wheel companies on this forum that claim to unrealistic wheel weights and we find it unfair that a person seeking a light weight wheel is bamboozled by trickery, and illusions in order to move a product.

Strasse Has not posted any unrealistic numbers and have always been up front on their wheel weights.
For Example: (I posted this earlier with a retraction of a statement I made.)
No one in this thread is trying to be deceptive. Blaine weighed his wheels on his scale at home it came up 17lbs... his scale most likely is a little lean. I posted up similar wheels in size and the weights are close... I Have measured my previous set of 20's in mesh 10" width and 12" width and they were both under 25lbs... Some of the lightest wheels I have ever held! So to divert this back on topic again.
CONGRATS BLAINE!!!! and HAPPY
on your new wheels!
