Any experience with these rims as opposed to Mavic Open Pros?

They're a bit heavier. 480g listed vs 425g for the Open Pros. That's a good
thing for rear wheel.
I like them better than Open Pros, and they're a better value (about $20
cheaper). They are solid rims.
Both rims have a double eyelets and a similar cross section, though the
Evolution's cross section is reinforced with small "tubes" on the edges. (Is
there a name for those things?)

With that weight Mavic CXP33's are also a good option.
