I've read great reviews, but then later seen that they may be a bit flexy.

I'm 15st - has anyone any experience with these wheels and will they stand me throwing them down Peak District rock strewn descents?

I'm 12.5st and don't find them flexy. I regularly do 3-4' drops on them, and have cased the rear wheel pretty badly trying to clear a suprise ditch, and they remain unscathed. However, they do have a low spoke count, with some of them radially spoked, so you may be pushing them to their limit at that weight and terrain.

Yep - I'm 105kg, which is around 16.5 stone (I know, I know but I carry it well). No problems with them whatsoever. I tend to corner quite hard and am happy doing reasonably big jumps on them. I wouldn't go too gonzo on them though.
