Vuelta XRP wheels?

anyone able to find any reviews or specs on these things. they come on a lot of the mail order bikes. i plan on changing them out at some point, but will have to live with them for a time. how bad are they?

Update:

actually the link bikes direct gives to the actual italian vuelta site is kind of a trick. the vuelta wheels on these bikes are licensed but not built by vuelta that's why you dont see XRP on that sight as one of the models. can't find any stats on the wheels bikesdirect is actually using. just wondering if anyone else had?

    Vuelta makes some very good wheels, you didn't mention what model.

    Check out what model you have before you decide to change them out, you could be taking a step backwards.

    Vuelta Xrp Wheels

    These are supposed to be pretty decent knock around, training wheels. They are tough and reliable. They aren't, however, anything you are going to want to go race with.

    Hope this helps.
