    Someone here doesn't know what they're talking about.

    Either way, one word isn't going to help much.

    How about "strong enough for road riding" or "too weak for muni"?

    How about some anecdotes about your personal experience with said
    product?

    nipples with titanium spokes. Using brass nipples instead of aluminum
    alloy nipples negates much of their weight advantage.
