  • The complete wheels weight will be lighter

Cons

  • Breaking a spoke is more of an issue to deal with, especially if it breaks at the nipple, on a deep section rim.
  • On the other hand, hard to happen broken any spokes on new wheels built with brass nipples. If getting wheels built without holes in the tire bed, using alloy nipples is an invitation to problems down the road.
