Im using spank subrosa too and i will agree its bloody tough for the very low weight.
halo sas rims are tough as boots too, mine took a rear mech munch with no bother, a lesser rim would have had the spokes ripped through but it took it no problem.
my old sun rims mtx s-type seemed to be invincible too.
