Hello everyone...
I'm looking to be educated on the joys of carbon wheels. Seems that lately there are many companies arising with carbon wheels with decent prices.
#1. Of these new companies and the older companies, who has the best warranty?
#2. Which of all the carbon wheel companies makes the best wheelset and why?
I'm looking for a rim that has a good warranty as I'm told you want that for carbon. Next, my riding is mostly XC with Trail, I will occasionally do some all mountain so I'm looking at a wheelset that can hold up to this kind of use. I think an all mountain wheelset or trail wheelset would cover my needs, I think.
From what I have gathered and from what most shops have told me and most riders have told me is that ENVE is the best and you get what you pay for, no one beats enve. At that price point they better be. I have seen they offer a 5 year warranty. Considering the new M60 wheels, XC Clincher, or AM wheelsets. My problem is I keep asking, do I want to pay this price, are they really all that?
Roval, I can't seem to get warranty info on them. Nox seems to have 2 year limited warranty. Sram I don't think only offers XC wheels and I'm not sure of the warranty. Light bike wheels, I don't know, do they even have warranty or you just buy another one cause they are so inexpensive? Easton, well I'm sure I'm sold on their hubs, I've good reports on the wheels but bad on the hubs. What is nice about enve or nox is that you can build up with I9 hubs, CK hubs, Hope hubs, or what every you like.
Anyway, thoughts and input here anyone? Tell me of other companies that I've missed, I know there has to more carbon wheel companies out there.
