Carbon Fiber Road Bike Wheels 50mm Clincher Wheelset 700c Racing Bike Wheel

10/26/19 -1300 mile update - I've moved my riding indoors to a smart trainer, but up to this point, I have 1300 plus miles on these wheels with zero problems. They are still true, bearings spin nice, freehub still going strong, brake tracks are fine. I can't recommend these wheels enough. Hopefully this will continue into next season! They are as good or better then any other wheelset I've rolled on over the past 30 years of riding road bikes.07/12/19 - 500 mile update - Did a thorough inspection, they are still dead true and spin smooth. I have done some very hard stops on these and the brake tracks are still looking good and are not showing any signs of wear. After 500 miles I still can't recommend these things enough. They are the real deal. WIll update again at 1000 miles.06/05/19 - 100 mile update - The wheels are still rolling true and have been issue free. They have improved my overall speed by close to 1.5mph. They will blow you around a bit in a very heavy crosswind but nothing thats severe enough to cause a loss of control. As others have stated, they do have a unique almost humming sound at speed. I assume this is due to the design of the rim acting almost like a drum, it amplifies road noise from the tires. Will update again after 500 miles.05/27/19 - I purchased these wheels, which, as it turns out, are Superteam 23mm wide 50mm depth and came with the Powerway R13 hubs, which are supposedly a bit better then the Novatecs from what I've read. The box arrived in perfect condition and both wheels looked great. All included bits were packed neatly in another little box.Tires mounted easily, and I recommend using 80mm valve tubes. I didn't have any (ordered some) so I used normal 48mm tubes and used the included valve extenders. Protip: When installing the extenders, it is necessary to wrap the threads of the valve where the extender screws on with plumbers tape to seal the extender to the valve. If you don't, you will never be able to fill the tire because the air will blow past the extender where it attaches to the valve.Anyway everything mounted up great, no clearance issues with my bike, installed the included brake pads and off I went on a 30 mile shake down ride.First thing I noticed was these wheels are stiff! In a good way. I am 250 pounds, and they do not wag at all even under some pretty hard climb efforts and a few standing sprints. They also feel like they absorb road chatter better than my old wheelset did, although that could be due to the wider rim allowing my 25c tire to fatten up a bit.I was curious if they would blow me around a bit in a cross breeze being they are 50mm and I was coming from a 28mm rim, but I never noticed anything crazy. One odd thing I noticed, they are 200 grams lighter than my old wheelset (Neuvation M28 aeros) but they feel a bit more sluggish on sprints then the lower profile wheels. This may be due to the higher profile, or who knows, maybe it was my imagination, or that I was riding on tired legs. I do know that on a windy windy day, I was able to add about half a mph speed from my last ride on the same route under better conditions, so I am optimistic that they will only help my speed.Anyway after initial assembly and ride I have to say that these wheels are an insanely good deal for the money. I did a ton of research and I, like everyone else, was hesitant about buying Chinese made carbon wheels, but a lot of the research pointed me to the fact that most all of these rims are made in the same factories as their higher end counterparts. I also saw that the positive reviews FAR exceeded the negatives on both Amazon, Ebay and the countless cycling forums I visit. We all know that people with a negative experience are way more likely to post a review then someone with a positive. So I give these a solid 5 star rating... for now... We shall see how they handle the season, and I will give follow ups as I put more miles on them.

Wow! Love these wheels so far. I had a fellow friend/rider who purchased nearly the same wheels (Superteam) essentially the same wheels, these just don't have the superteam decals on them, but the small parts box that came with these does have superteam on it. Anyways, he didn't like them, they were not adjusted correctly and the spokes were loose about a mile into his ride. He returned them for a full refund. Mine on the other hand, visually looked to be very true, I have about 100 miles on them so far and they look outstanding, the spokes are tight, the detail is great on them (brake tracks and construction in general), they just look to be very well made. I'll see how they hold up over time, but overall I am very, very impressed with these so far, I've only had them about a week. I was going to purchase either FLO or Mavic wheels, and these look outstanding, for a fraction of the cost. I was going to place some decals on them, but they look very sleek and stealthy with no decals and just the sidewall lettering of the Continental GP4000S II tires on them, so I may just leave them as is. I have 60mm presta tubes on mine (also Continental), and they leave about 3/4 to 1 inch of valve stem exposed, 80mm would work as well, but nothing short of 60mm would work. I will update as I get more miles on them out on the road as to how they hold up too.Update: Almost a year later (not quite) purchased July 2018 and it's now June 2019 and the front wheel is spot on, fine, no issues, the rear wheel however: It has developed (with normal use mind you) and really bad "chirping" noise, coming from the hub, suddenly and out of nowhere. I have taken the wheel off and replaced it with my original stock wheels and it is in fact the hub making the noise. Not sure if it's the bearings or the hub body, but either way I have contacted the seller for a refund. This shouldn't have to be a yearly purchase, with a 1 year warranty as well. The carbon fiber rims are in excellent condition and the spokes as well, they've held up really well, I just suspect the hubs are well........suspect. Normal usage, no pothole hits or anything like that, with regular washing and nearly mostly ridden in dry conditions.

I ordered these as a replacement for a previous carbon wheelset from my Trek 4.7 that were damaged in a wreck. They're sufficiently lightweight and were true right out of the box. I was able to mount my tires on them very quickly and have been riding on these wheels for 6 months with no issues. I'm a more casual rider and often ride in rural areas, so I don't know how these will hold up in a race or under heavy usage. The only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that the hubs are a bit noisy, and that the hinges on the skewers that came with them were far too snug when they are closed, even when the nut was adjusted to loosen the skewer. No problem, I just reused the skewers from my old wheelset. Other than these minor issues, these wheels were a great value for the money.I'm average height and about 195 pounds, and they support my weight just fine.
