What do you all think is a reasonable standard of trueness for a disk wheel? I just got a new FalconSports Accel II disk and it's probably 1/16" out of true. I can't tell exactly, but I know thats it's vastly less true than any regular wheel I have.
I returned the first Accel disk I got because it was at least 1/4" off. I'm hesistant to return another one for fear that I'm just being too picky. What think ye?

Every carbon wheel I've ever seen has been out of true more than I would want...most makers have some sort of standards on what they consider true and not. If the 1/16 is outside of Accel's standards then I'd return it, if not, then probably not. I've never really tried to measure the one's I've seen, but 1/16 doesn't seem like much to me.

Do you have any other disc wheels to compare with your wheel. Out of five I've owned the best I've ever seen was 2mm - each way, the others were worse.

No discs. I have pairs of Hed3s and ACs (with zipp 404 rims). The difference is night and day. They are vastly truer than the Accel disk.
