    No personal experience with them. But here is one excerpt from:

    I have a set of Fulcrum 3's [/b]
    And they are my current favorite all-arounder. I also have a set of Am Classic 420's and Reynolds Cirro MV's. I like the Am Classics as well but they are a bit finicky (my front makes a wierd noise above 30 mph that I can't diagnose, I've had to true them a few times - just enough stuff that I don't fully trust 'em). The Cirros aren't really everyday wheels for me so I won't compare them.

    I got the Fulcrums last Fall and thought they were a bit harsh even on my Winter Ti bike but when I changed the rubber from Conti 4 Seasons to Conti 4000's I really started enjoying the Fulcrums. I porbably have at least 3k on them. They feel solid, stiff and while they're not lightweight they aren't heavy either. I've had them over 50 downhill in a slight crosswind and felt confident. They get compared to the K Elites but I had some Elites and they would sometimes flex enough that my wheel magnet would start touching the sensor if I was standing and big-ringing over a short hill. Not so with the Fulcrums. I had some K SSC SL's and the Fulcrum 3's compare favorably other than being a little heavier. Anyway, I really like them and plan on using them as my workhorse wheelset until they die. FYI I'm a quasi-Clydesdale at 6-4, 195.
