Highlights
Quality
However, dt has had difficulty keeping up with the demand and supply was spotty for a few years after they were introduced.
I appreciate the amount of leverage (read control) you have with the wide wings and it lighter wight makes it very comfortable to use.
Since dt swiss stood by their product i'm updating my rating to 4 stars.
Competitiveness
One that contacts 3 sides may be more convenient for building, but this one is much better for truing wheels.
The earlier steel version was a tad heavy at 32g.
