Subject: [CR]Super Champion Medaille D' Or Tubular Rim Info Needed

Does anyone know if Super Champion Medaille D' Or Tubular Rims were primarily intended for track use??? I purchased a NOS pair of these some time ago, and recall reading that Super Champion made track specific rims with sidewalls too thin for road use (i.e., too weak for brake pad pressure/wear). They feel very light, reminding me of the Mavic Golds that I use to have on my old Teledyne Titan --- those rims eventually developed serious stress fracture cracks at the spoke hole ferrules! Appreciate any information that can be provided about these rims. Kevin Kruger - Grantville, PA
