I received my front Velocity Dyad rim with Shimano 105 hub a couple of
days ago. It made my day to come home and find my new wheel waiting
for me. I headed straight to the garage to make the change. First, I
checked the spoke tension with the old squeeze test. It seemed
uniformly tight. Nice. Next, I put the wheel on the fork without a
tire and gave her a spin. Wow, that's really, really true and minimal
vertical hop too! The only thing left to do was install the tape and
tire. I've put 15 miles of rough city roads on the wheel so far, and
it's as true as it was out of the box. I wholeheartedly believe this
wheel will out live my bike. Thanks guys!
--Update-- I'm as happy now as I was a month ago. The wheel has
over 600 miles on it now, and it's as good now as it was then. Todd

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.
