Date Reviewed: October 3, 2000 | | Duration Product Used: | 6 months | | Price Paid: |
$750.00 | | Purchased At: | Lickton's | | Strengths: | Elegant but tough
puts spoke nipples on the hub where they belong
no more wheel truing!!! | | Weaknesses: | a tad pricy | | Similar Products Used: | mavic, velocity, matrix - all conventionally laced | | Bike Setup: | Klein Pulse with a special eclectic component mix | | Bottom Line: | Cane Creek's wheelsets are excellent. Not cheap, but fantastic build quality and top-notch design. The Disc-V's are beefy, but they feel light because of their low rotational inertia. Worth the investment.
I have not had to touch a wheel with a spoke wrench afterr six months of abuse from an aggressive 90kg rider on a hardtail aluminum frame. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

Date Reviewed: March 28, 2000 | | Favorite Trail: | Pee Wee's MTB Park | | Duration Product Used: | 3 months | | Strengths: | Weight advantage over other disc wheelsets, stainless steel straight pull spoke, trued at hub, bombproof! Supreme acceleration and GOOD LOOKS. | | Weaknesses: | None found | | Similar Products Used: | Mavic 517, Bontrager Race, Spinergy REVX & SPOX | | Bike Setup: | 2000 Intense Tracer, Hand Built | | Bottom Line: | You absolutely will not find a lighter stronger disc specific wheelset. I have been riding and abusing these rims for three months and haven't had to touch them yet. Cane Creek is a friendly, easy to deal with company. They have my full endorsement. I work at a Bike Shop and can ride any wheels I would like. The Cane Creeks have it hands down. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |
