At 17.2 lbs for the 17" rims it isn't bad, but 10 spokes to me look a little messy. I like 8 spokes because it looks balanced and symmetrical, if you can look at it that way, kinda like a Norman cross.

I liked the colour when I first came across it, but like it is not my style. I would rather go 6 spoke than 10.

Here's a 12-spoke and a split 6-spoke. Looks pretty good.
