Roval Controle XC wheels

rider217

Sorry, 2 posts in succession looking for advice. What are people's experiences of the above wheels. I normally use hope proIIs on DT Swiss 4.2s. There is quite a big weight saving, but obviously quite a cost increase. How do they compare in performance, and in particular strength. They would be for xc and xc racing, but also occasional trips around the Welsh trail centres

I've seen some reviews that say they are good for lightweight riders - I'm just under 11st so figure I should be ok.

Thanks

Both of Rovals MTB wheel sets are scored well in reviews.
I'm currently saving up for the Roval Traversee wheels for my SL

In case you haven't seen the reviews on BR
