I’m on a good finances so I appeared round in any respect the China choices that usually get superb evaluations. Elitewheels have develop into a sponsor of GCN so that actually gave me confidence of their high quality. On high of that they’re stocked by Amazon, so supply is fast. The value is a bit more than a number of the different manufacturers on the market, however I felt the fast supply and good evaluations made it value it.

Unboxing
As you may see within the footage above the wheelset appears to be like nice. They had been packaged very properly and arrived rapidly. They included some adaptors for fast launch and likewise some rim tape. I want they’d included some spare spokes like different manufacturers do, but in addition hoping none break. The value I paid was $459, however I additionally discovered a $25 greenback coupon that I used. For that value I’m very proud of the wheelset. The load is the one factor that isn’t nice, however it’s nonetheless affordable for the worth.
I’ll be updating this assessment as I mount tires and get them on the bike with some rides in.
