With Forza being a Belgian brand, I expected a wheelset that was up to the job of handling rough tough cobbled roads, and that's exactly what I got.

Considering the conditions back home in Belgium, they easily made light work of the worst that Surrey had to offer.

The surprise, however, came when I also experienced a stiff and responsive ride to match.
