The looks are fine but the build is crap, what I saw at BikeMotion. The wheel has no counterweight to get it in balance.

Wow, very strict quality standards! Could you list a few wheels that feature counterweights? None of mine do, and I have 12 Wheelsets at home - all crap?

23mm isn't that wide and I don't like the SRAM style graphics ... that said the shallow clinchers with black track look nice even if they are narrow and a bit porky

BTW ... is that wheel behind them really spinning back and forth throughout the whole interview to unsubtly underline the bearing supremacy or is someone behind the screen turning the damn thing????

Guess you don't own a Campag wheelset. Even the budget Khamsin comes with a counterweight system which means that when you rotate it the valve stem tends not to settle at the bottom. But exactly how crap lack of a counterweight system makes a wheel I don't know.
