I love these I9 wheels. After some bad experiences with carbon I just couldn't handle another heartbreak of cracking a rim and waiting on warranty. Don't get me wrong, carbon wheels are incredible, but for those of us who can't afford carbon rims AND a backup wheelset it can result in too much off-bike warranty time. Enter I9s... I had always heard that they were as good as it gets for aluminum wheels so I ordered some up last summer hoping to get more reliability and comparable feel to my previous carbon wheels.
They aren't quite as light, but these things definitely feel just as good on the trail. Very stiff and very responsive. The hubs might be a love/hate thing, they are loud as sh*t. I don't really love the noise, but we have crowded trails here so it actually is nice to let people know where I am. They also have absurdly instant engagement which is a noticeable advantage on technical climbs.
I since sold the bike from last season that had these, but ordered a new set to put on my new bike this summer because I liked them so much.

Also, one time a friend though a rattlesnake was chasing him. It was hilarious. for me. This is my 3rd pair. I have also has a pair of 27.5 enduros and even got a pair laced up to some 27.5+ rims! they're that good.
