FSA RD-80 rims
The older Mavic rims that came with my roadie are starting to go out of true. Now I could have them trued up, but I really do not like the way they look. My entire bike is black and silver with the exception of my rims which are brown (ick).
I can get a pair or FSA RD-80s on Nashbar for $136 right now after the 20% discount, but I cannot find any feedback on them. I really could not afford more than that right now, but if the have decent bang for the buck I might go for them.
Anyone have any clue about these rims?

I have an RD-80 front wheel that has been hammered pretty hard and it is still true with no problems. My rear was damaged in a crash and so was replaced. They are good wheels for the money, not featherly light, but strong, they look good and at that price you cant go wrong.

I want to bump this to get some info on these wheels. I just bought a slightly used set for $100. I couldn't find a lot of info on them besides this thread and what the sellers say. What do you all think?
