Check out the other posts on them of which there have been several.

Some think the spoke count is a bit low for heavier riders at 28. I had a split hub (I'm 70kg) and Kinsesis said they'd only seen it with much heavier riders.

Have had to send a couple of pairs back for being too flexy for the riders (hitting fork crown under load).

Rorschache is that experience of the 3rd generation wheel. Google search didnt actually come up with many people having problems.
