I've got a set of Dura Ace 9000 hubs, 24F and 28R, and am undecided which rims to pair them with.

I've had several sets of archetypes before and fancy something different, would like it to be a wide rim so minimum 23mm. These wheels will be for my summer bike so hopefully won't see much wet weather riding, so I don't mind paying a bit more for good rims. The ones I've been looking at are Hed Belgium+ which look very nice but a bit pricey to say the least, or the Pacenti SL23 but these have mixed reviews and I understand are soon to be replaced by the Forza rim.

Any views or experience of the above mentioned rims or alternate suggestions would be appreciated.

For info, I weigh 85kg so would be looking for a rim that's fairly sturdy.

Thanks :)
