I'm wondering how strong Airlite fixed hubs are.

I love them aesthetically and they make sense chronologically for the bike I'm putting together.

I want to build up a set of fixed gear wheels to be ridden on the mean streets of LA with Airlites, but I'm curious if they're a good choice.

I'm not looking for anything to jump curbs or do wheelies, but let's face it, there are some potholes out here that you could park a mini cooper in.

Any opinions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
