One is nipple breaking, I think I have had 3-4 nipple s break in 2 years of riding.
The other issue is the hubs become loose. I sent them back to Topolino, and they repaired them at no expense to me (other than shipping them there) and I think they were out of warranty.
Also, even if the nipple breaks, I have been able to ride the wheel back to the start of the ride without problems. I just open up the brake. Since the topos have more spokes than regular light wheels, they don't seem to go out of true as much.

Bruce, thanks for the feedback. This forum has been a big help to me. I have had people criticize the Topolinos that have no expereince with them. If it wasn't for the positive feedback I received on this forum, I wouldn't have bought the wheels.
