I've done some searching to get more info about this rim. Since it's not brand new anymore, I thought there would be more info here. But it's not much.
Has anyone built wheels with the disc version?
How are they building?
How are they riding?
How good are they handling tubeless tires?
Mavic Open Pro UST disc rim - hands-on experience?

No feedback at all for the Open Pro UST's?
Doesn't anyone ride these rims?

I have built a few of these several years ago and they are not the strongest rims out there. You have to take care even during the stress relieving phase of building them not to bend them. The HED Belgium series makes a much better wheel imo.jesper2913 wrote:No feedback at all for the Open Pro UST's?

Since you haven't built any recently, is that because ppl don't request them? Or do you recommend against using them?
If I wanted something else really light, how about the DT 411? What is your experience with them? HED are very expensive in the EU.

It's because I haven't built wheels professionally for almost a decade. No experience with 411.
