Personally, I've been quite happy with Open Pros, the only improvement
being the ceramic brake surface treatment. They never wear. My front

I understand they work well for lithe young girls and Sunday tweed
rides.

But not real men like you, eh, Chalo?

I can buy four rims that will survive a beating for the same price as
one of those, though.

So what?

Still waiting for the yet more expensive "Mavic Open Masters 50 And
Over".

Nah, most of them ride carbon, like Zipp 303 or 404. Mavic Open Pro's
for them are just cheap training wheels. But hang on, that implies they
are all lithe young girls or wear plenty of Sundy tweed, doesn't it?
