Date Reviewed: June 24, 2008 | | Duration Product Used: | 3 months | | Price Paid: |
$620.00 | | Purchased At: | Cyclingo | | Strengths: | Strong rims.
Very light for their price.
Smooth rolling.
They look great. | | Weaknesses: | Rear hub workmanship.
You need an extra large spoke key for adjustments. | | Similar Products Used: | Alex rims, cheaper shimano, bontrager | | Bike Setup: | Merida Hardtail | | Bottom Line: | The front wheel is the perfect value upgrade. Light yet strong. The paint job looks good too.
The rear wheel is also great if has been put together correctly. When I first got the wheelset I had trouble with what I thought was a bent disc. It later turned out to be that the hub hadn't been put together properly and as a consequence the axil was not true which led to the wheel bearings coming loose and the disc not being true. Would have got 5 chillies if this problem didn't exist.
Shimano replaced the wheel though via my LBS and all is sweet now.
My first set of tubeless wheels. Excellent! | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |
