This is all super helpful, especialy since I'm considering buying these.

This is incredibly helpful and unlike anything else out there. If you do any more content, this detailed step by step is fascinating to a newbie. Probably boring to make. But.

I like alloy wheels but your prices are really okay for carbon rims. Maybe in the future I'll try them. But do you sell them single? Because I have a Stumpjumper Mullet with 29" and 27.5" wheels. I also want gold decals, is that possible?

am i wrong but you compared diy $3000+ bike to $2000-$2500 bike?

FINALLY!! I've been in search for carbon kids bikes since the day my daughter was born...just in time, she's eight now and I hope I can manage to keep her interested in the classic lithium free muscle grease way of cycling...you made my hopes rise again, thanks! What exactly don't you like about the chain ring on the crank set! Usually I agree but this one actually looks pretty nice and seems to be anodised Aluminium...Infected flesh wounds on 8 year old legs are worse to look at..

Could an adult use the 26 inch wheels on an older bike?

What frame is this

Great Video! Awesome information! I'll hope to be ordering some wheels this year!

i was your 700th sub

Best carbon wheelset for a hardtail please!

the Shimano Deore 1x11 (M5100?) is amazing. set with cranks runs for 150-180€ in Europe. Probably the best Bang for your Buck

So glad I found this video. Several years removed from MTB, building a new bike to refamiliarize myself.... this is a huge help, thanks!

Slx has been my jam since they went to 12 speed. So close to xt, only big difference I feel is the shifter.

Unique video and very informative. I only buy XTR but enjoyed watching this. 👍

Seeing physical examples of your builds and testing would be awesome. Smashing a DCB frame and wheel set down some trails would be the best way to affirm people that these things are legit

Just ordered a one piece handlebar and seatpost hopefully it get here safely.

Gwin went down a wc dh cup on his ex471 rim without a tire! Do that on a carbon rim!

‘How to’s’ would be helpful as well. I want to build a carbon bike. My first questions are around what should I buy. The second questions are how do I put it together. I totally agree with you though. Your brand will explode on KZbin. You should be hammering videos and then ads on other DIY pages. The DIY space is fueled by KZbin.

Hell yeah 🤙 looking forward to it 👍

Smart move, Ty. DCB deserves more online exposure. All of the 5 items I have purchased are outstanding. 👍👍

It's good to see there's real people behind the brand and that the people are invested in their product an aim to continually improve it. For me it all starts with your frames. Reliable and comparable to the name brand frames. Real frame weights, weighed live on video. Cross-Country mountain bikes are my main interest. Mainly full suspension but always need to have at least one hardtail.

The carbon wheels i had were so stiff they beat me up and pinged off everything. I'll never run carbon wheels again.

My bike came with 1600 gram carbon wheels, I sold them for $900, bought some 1240 gram Roval SL wheels, amazing wheels, BIG difference in performance, and stength.. worth every cent...

Very good advice, very good choice.. Well worth looking here for your wheels...

how do you build a mullet wheelset?

Pretty sure its just a carbon rim , not the entire wheel

Can you source replacement parts for Fastace and Bitex hubs?

great explanation.

So, this is just a self-serving advertisement? Who would question that advice? SMH

This kind of BS makes people think that carbon wheels are fantastic. But the truth is, only good carbon wheels are. And they are sertanly not cheap.

I ordered wheels from these people and not only did I not get them but they keep deleting my comments I have asked numerous times to contact me and they keep sending me to the site where no one will contact you. If you pay with Pay pal you only have 180 days to contest but it takes longer to get the wheels so you're screwed. I have been waiting since May 28 2021. I'm out 770.00.

The problem is you won't get the wheels for a year if you get them at all. Customer service is nonexistent, I have been trying to get my wheels since May of 2021, 800.00 is gone !!!

Into five to 15 minutes I'm already getting bored get to the point Now everybody has money like that to talk about a product and the manufacturers do good in some parts of the product and keep out on others So one of them is the wheels and the employer example free hub is still on a lot of bikes versus cassette hubs I mean you would think you spend more than $600 on the bike you will lease get some cassette hubs next free hubs and bikes that are a thousand dollars to say five thousand dollars still have external routing of brake lines in gear lines but do you go to another store and get a $300 bike and this guy internal routing Was it with that

Lol I have very similar Bontrager connection heavy wheelset looking to upgrade to carbon.

I see carbon frame's cracking all the time,, but I rarely seen carbon wheel's cracking,, maybe carbon is better in circles than triangles etc i Guess it's easier to design rims with continues fibers when it's not much details.. anyways I want to build strong bike's for heavy hard rider's that is low maintenance so you can have a couple of bikes without always having to fix one.. I have two emtb's very rarely are both in good enough shape so I can bring a friend and just go on a day trip in the Mountain with just a pocket tool ..i feel like many parts are made to break so you will continuously upgrade your bikes until the frame is outdated and then it's finally good... but I guess if I just had a really good wheel set i could just switch but no They will change up the width 110 148 boost is only now it's really no way to keep up

Many thanks for the video, could you recommend a carbon fibre wheel upgrade for my mtb without spending a fortune, any recommendations out there please..?

Great vid guys, a good break down of the plethora of options. I’ve got some Magic Pro Carbon’s I need to upgrade and when I do I hope to buy a set from you. Questions, no one believes me, but three shops have been witness. Beading tires on these wheels are beyond a pain. They are almost void of use due to how difficult they can be. Can you shed light on how difficult your wheels are to bead on?

Don’t buy this cheap Chinese junk it will kill you!

Which one of your wheels would you recommend for a 29er 3" fat bike tire? Its hard to decipher what dimensions I need for that tire.

What I've figured is that a bike is actually just the frame alone, and then parts are mounted to it. Just a few changes can make a completely different experience, and then we're all of a sudden into custom, except most people wouldn't consider it as such. They see a frame with a name on it, and thus, that's what bike it is. Well, I'd say strip it down to frame only, and that's what bike it is. Add parts again and then it is this, that or what ever bike + these are the parts I choose to use with this bike. If I had a Honda motorcycle, at least I know I could go to a Honda dealer and get any original part for that particular bike, if they of course are not discontinued. When will the bike industry follow... Secondary options are good to have, it's just with a bicycle most of these are primary options - There *_is_* a difference.

This all sounds good but I am a single father of 3 and can only dream of a carbon wheelsets. I havent even looked at your prices (and I'm not going to). Only because when you say " affordable ", you are actually saying something else.... im not biting on that because carbon fiber wheels are and never will be affordable. I know you cant , but if you can prove me wrong. I'll buy a light XC wheelset from you.

No 26" hoops? What about the DJ people and kids?

Best upgrade: dropper post, undebatable.

You sold me just bought a pair

Love the vid great info and I’m definitely going to check out the site, I’ve been looking for good affordable carbon wheels for a while.

Glad I came across this!

Would like video on the frames you have available as well, good video regarding wheels

I’ve owned a dozen different aluminum wheels and never had a single issue. You’re just trying to talk up carbon because you’re making money off it.

I always think I’ll break carbon wheels
