Pros:

• Fusion Fiber Rims claimed to offer a more compliant ride and higher impact strength
• Rims, hubs, and spokes made in USA
• Laced up by hand in the USA
• Built to extremely tight tolerances - 0.05mm lateral runout and even tensions
• Lightest feeling wheels in the test
• Excellent pricing (less than any other brand's fusion fiber wheels)
  
• Most precise, high-end feeling wheelset of the test
• BERD spokes made for an extremely fast accelerating wheel
• BERD Spokes + Fusion Fiber means micro vibrations were minimized
• Excellent engagement with I9 Hydra hubs​​

​Cons:

• Expensive materials make for an expensive wheel, but Atomik is more affordable than their competition with similar spec.

Additional Thoughts:
​
These wheels are amazing. Handbuilt in the US with US spokes, rims, and hubs. The guys at Atomik are OCD about their wheels, and it really shows in this, their flagship wheelset. Precise, extremely lightweight, with extra damping properties. The BERD spokes were the cherry on top of these wheels. They reduce smaller vibrations, allow the rim to flex a little more, and keep the weight down. These wheels felt the lightest of the group, and while they didn't quite have the suspension-like feel of the ZIPPs and the Spynnergy wheels, they had a more refined feel. These would make EXCELLENT trail and enduro wheels. These felt the most high-end of the group. They don't smash through poor lines like the ZIPPS, but they had a great balance of lateral stiffness, lightweight, and reducing trail chatter. Truly phenomenal wheels. What the team at Atomik has done is nothing short of amazing with these wheels.
