I have been riding my new rim set (Atlas Velocity) since June 15th and have put about 750 miles on them. Just did my weekly inspection of them and still see absolutely no signs of them falling out of tru. These replaced a set of almost 30 year old Ritchey rims. So far so good in a start to get 30 years out of this set.
Only negative I have had so far was the wait of around 2 months to get them. But with the issues with supply chains during covid I actually feel lucky I only had to wait a couple of months.
If you need a new rim set you wont go wrong with using Pro WheelBuilder. While I pretty much knew exactly what I wanted they will definitely help you make the right decision.

Great Job. Ordered a Velocity Chukker 40 spoke and Velocity Rear Disc Hub with Sapin Strong Spokes for my 29er. Rode the bike fully loaded with food and water, Racks and my 120kg body from Perth to Sydney (4,700km). My major concern was that I had popped spokes previously on a 26 inch 36 spoke wheel when riding Cairns to Sydney and was worried about extra forces that would come into play with 29 inch. This wheel was bulletproof and attracted the attention of other touring cyclists on route. Good job team, thank you. Can't wait to find an excuse to buy another set. If you are a big bloke and to tour or trek with lots of gear, start your build with a set of wheels that will go the distance. One happy camper! Carl Johnston Australia
