I just picked up a bike that has Bontrager Race Light wheels on it. I fluctuate between 190 and 210 depending on what point of the season we're in, so I'm not the lightest rider in the group.

24 spoke rear / 20 front

Any idea if these wheels will hold up to the weight/torque, or will I need to look at swapping them before heading on down the road?
 
i picked up a pair of these at a sweet price a few months back, I rode them a couple times but a lot of the research I did really said this are for much lighter people. I'm a bit heavier than you at 230lbs and I didn't have any issues for the 20 or so miles I rode them but I didn't want to take the chance. I put them on my gf's bike, she weighs 130 so they are a nice upgrade for her entry level bike and shaved almost a full pound off of it.
