I've been using those exact wheels for over 3000 miles, that saddle for not quite a year and those tpu tubes for almost a year. Everything has been fantastic. Cycling products don't have to be name brand be to quality!

[@crypto_que]

David despite the detractors and naysayers keep doing these reviews and whatever other brands and sponsors you want to review. It seems the audience doesn't know that most of the carbon goods purchased are made in the Far East regardless of their branding, and many have maturing to do when it comes to global commerce. Keep up the good work David.

Thanks! :)

A lot of apprehension towards AliExpress in these comments. I don't disagree; there's so much stuff on there (just like Amazon btw), and not all of it is worth one's time. But that's exactly why videos like this are important - it helps consumers make a more informed decision on specific products instead of just guessing when browsing the AliExpress website. No experience with those wheels but I run that saddle as well as those TPU tubes. I've got that saddle on two bikes (and a third one unmounted) and no problems so far (albeit low total hours used). Those tubes, they're nice if they passed QC; about 1/4 among the dozen or two I've picked up had valve issues (where the valve meets the plastic).

[@viralfire]

I bought/have that same saddle and used it in the South Downs Century Challenge last year...and ever since. An absolute winner!

[@roberthull7608]

I got a Ryet EVA saddle last week for my mountain bike, did 52 miles on it at the weekend no problem, the saddle was comfortable and for my XC bike a weight of 112g is very welcome. People seem scared of Chinese carbon, strange considering that some of the big brands are made there and just branded with a pricey logo.

[@pejakesic]

I've got all 3 reviewed products and they are great, nevermind the price. Yes the wheels are not super light but are upgrade nevertheless.

[@davidarthur]

That's cool, thanks for sharing :)

[@y2kredbull]

I have been using these Elite Wheels ENT 50MM for 2 years now. Yea they are a bit on the heavy side but does not matter to me. No issues so far and recently changed to new bearings. Hubs sounds nice. Not too loud and not too soft. Looking to get their Ultralight ceramic bearings ratchet hub wheelset soon.

[@cabanas861]

I didn't like the 3D Ryet saddle. It had an exposed plastic border that was hurting my inner thighs or maybe it was too wide for me. I'm 178 cm and 81 kg (5'10 , 180 lbs ). I went with the Bucklos instead from Ali Express which is about $60-70 and ive been loads happier. Way better

[@touzenjodan]

I've been riding a tubular ENT that was updated to Pillar Wing 20 for about two years.The spoke tension is constant and there is no wobbling, and the ratchet ridges are not scraped and can be used normally.I think it is quite durable.

[@OmarCalderon01]

I have purchased that ryet 3d printed carbon saddle, by far the most comfortable saddle i have ever used. I bought the plastic version for my CX bike and my commuter. Smart purchase.

[@GravelRacer1]

I have an asymmetric carbon gravel wheelset and they are great. 23mm interal width and really light. I used them for unbound thia year with no issues. I also have that exact same saddle.

[@DubenDeFreshDJ]

few months ago i bought exactly the same setup of your, tire, wheels and tpu and after 300km i can sey, i’m very pleased. Not only for not breaking my bank but also great performance. This setup it’s a no brainer

[@JustinBenson]

Nice review and I'm glad there's competition to keep cycling affordable. One thing about quality is the initial experience and then how it holds up over time. There's not much you can do about the second part but it is worth noting that price = initial quality and time before replacement is needed. Sounds like you are giving the wheels and saddle a thumbs up on initial quality which is impressive.

[@viet0ne]

I'm a heavy rider, 225lbs at this moment. I have EliteWheels ENT Rim Brake Carbon wheels I purchased on the last sale for $330 shipped. I was very concerned about my weight being an issue on cheap rim brake wheels as I've had friends at 200lbs bust more expensive Zipp rim brake wheels. I can say after 1500 miles, brake track is still near pristine and the only issue is brake pads residue sometimes gets stuck and I clean it off with acetone. I go through brake pads like crazy now, they'll last 1000-1200 miles on the front wheel but they've been a great upgrade over my aluminum Open Pros.

[@BikeLife154]

Latex tubes are faster and not so harsh giving more comfort. The only downside is you have to pump them up before every ride. Going back to latex!

[@chrisscott8362]

I wish Elite would offer a more quiet freehub. I find the loud hub irritating on an otherwise stellar set of wheels.

[@CanonFirefly]

You can easily control the loudness of a pawl style hub by the viscosity of the lube used on the drive ring. Use a very thin oil and they will be loud. Use a thicker grease that will cushion pawls and they will be a lot quieter.

[@jgreenjeans]

​@@CanonFireflyI just watched Oz cycles video and learned this. I can't stand loud hubs.

[@pbob7409]

Add more grease to the freehub and it will be nice & quiet

[@DaveCM]

I have been using the Ride Now tubes for a while now on three bikes. They have been great. I've only had a problem with one of them. It had a very slow leak. It would hold up during a 4 or 5 hour ride just fine. It would be flat after a couple of days. I removed it and saw it has a very thin spot. I guess that is where it was seaping from. I replaced it and the new tube was fine. They hold air for a long time and seem durable.

[@viet0ne]

I had issues with my Ride now TPU tubes slow leaking as well. After weeks of trying to determine where it was coming from, I finally realized it was caused by me over tightening the valve after pumping. I was screwing the presta nut really finger tight. Similar to how I would tighten my normal tubes. But the ride now tubes with their plastic valve instead of metal are more sensitive to being over tightened. Ever since, I've been tightening just a bit more from the point of resistance and now my tubes hold air for 2-3 weeks before they need a top off.

[@johnnyboy4711]

Very easy to pinch flat on gravel wheels need to run 40psi at least,90kg rider

[@GOLTEB]

Those ride now tpu's are amazing, I've been using the same pair for more than 6months now! Just be careful on installing them because they're a bit tricky, make sure it has a little air to prevent them from pinching

[@frankoqhairul3485]

I bought a pair of rim brake elite wheelset on 2021 and they came without the spoke holes . I can fitted the tubeless tyre without rim tape.more than 8000km later still in good condition.

[@Keeazul]

Those carbon wheels look nice, and I can be sure about the quality and cost effectiveness since my favourite KZbinr says that good about the set. Attractive to say the least. However, I still try to keep distances from AliExpress and Temu to safeguard my mental/physical peace against any type of disappointment or risks and also to feel doing good to protect my favourite makers and shops. I may be an old, stubborn endangered spieces but it’s my policy, yet. Btw, my Alexrims’ Al alloy wheels weigh less than 1.5 kgs, spin well and robust. Neverthless, I certainly welcome more great review videos to convince me to change my rigid soul.

[@darylcherry5505]

I've had that Ryet saddle, and to be honest, it's great value for money. Didn't have huge expectations, but it proved to be a worthy upgrade over a standard item.

[@DnBSkunk]

I’ve had a Ryet saddle since November both being used indoors and out and I’ve been very impressed. A few people have seen mine and bought their own also

[@energylab6277]

My first ryet sadle looked like yours, a pro stealth inspired shape, but the noise was so wide it caused me too many issues. Tried a second even lighter, non 3d option and it is the best saddle I've ever ridden, and is 120g. Cheap enough to try several

[@steveng5107]

David, your opinion was important to me in purchasing decision of these wheels. Thank you for the review!

[@colincanyon2519]

Keep it up David lots of people enjoy these reviews 👍

[@davidarthur]

Thanks!

[@MatthewKaznowski]

I have all of these and am extremely happy with them for the price. The cassette really digs into the hub and it's impossible to remove it without damaging the cassette. My seat is the other ryet 3d printed saddle they have there and it's comfortable but the middle part has some hard edges (hasn't caused any issues so far though), seems like the glue holding the honeycomb structure makes the edges harder. I have the 24g tubes which have a 50% chance of having a puncture straight out of the box - ok if you're installing them at home but don't use them as backups on the road. The valve is also quite naff as it rattles (it does not have a bolt) and my pump blows off of it at about 75 psi. All very good value but they all have compromises to meet these prices.

[@vinmurphy777]

I am of average build and was riding in the city (Portland). They didn’t go flat from punctures but from bumps. Maybe I got some duds but all 3 went flat within 30 mins, only the front tire survived. I want to like them as I did notice a difference but yeah I can’t do that again

Bought ride now tubes. All 4 had micro leaks. I crashed very hard when my front wheel tube slowly became soft during a ride and let me down around a sharp corner. Tpu tubes are awesome, must I lost my trust in the quality of these

[@tristramcharnley2581]

I have found that the thread inside the plastic stem on these TPU tubes can easily strip allowing a slow leak of air past the valve. Better to go for a TPU tube with an alloy valve stem.

[@aveedub7403]

Hi David, I have the Zeus 3d printed saddle for my Giant Defy and Tcr. I love them, durable and light as hell! The ride now tubes are of patchy quality imo, some seem to keep reasonable pressure, but there are some that develop "pin prick" holes in numerous places that are really hard to find! One tube I binned the other day developed multiple holes almost all at or near the seams. No dirt or anything so im assuming just poor quality! Be warned, but as they're almost as cheap as chips I bin them when more than one hole! I've not actually ridden a repaired version yet btw!

Good wheel set choice considering the purchase price of the bike. I have a set of these exact wheels and they have been very reliable. I recommend putting a bit of grease under the end caps to keep the water out.

[@pendodave4661]

I've ordered tpu tubes for 28 and 35mm tyres. The larger ones were much easier to install without pinching and I've had no failures. Trying to squeeze a small one in a tightish 28 mm tyre was more problematic and I lost at least one. I got 4 for about £4 each in a multibuy. They are 100g lighter than butyl, so with a couple of spares on a trip away they represent a decent weight saving.

[@johnnyboy4711]

Used three tpus with maxxis ramblers and got three pinch flats,not great for gravel

[@pendodave4661]

@@johnnyboy4711 Fair enough. My own experience (only the last couple of months) is that they're no worse than Butyls. I had a trip a couple of years ago where I had a number of pinch flats before I knew they were a thing (butyl). Subsequently I've been paranoid about them, so have always made sure that I stay near the higher end of recommended pressures.

[@UncleMike6653]

I have elite wheels 82mm wheelset off amazon. They are clearly faster down hill or anytime our group rides really start pushing it( 23mph+). But after about 400-500 miles on them the rear spokes have started making noise and I can’t stop it. It is where the spokes cross each other. Kinda is driving me nuts. I will add the brake track is far superior to my slr1 wheelset. Night and day better. I dont remember what it is called but the brake track has some type of pattern and this is an amazing value(my wheel-set cost $420).

I got 45/60 Elites rim brake wheels and I think the same 3d printed saddle too. Wheels have been perfect, perfectly true and SOOOO much more responsive than the aluminum mavics I had with a bit stiffer ride. Quite happy with them though the brakes are terrible (I am a big guy though). I didn't get on with the saddle at all though - it was much less comfortable than the stock Cannondale saddle and went back to the stock one.

[@veloello1]

I have the same saddle, both the carbon and plastic base option, and I think they are great. Maybe it will wear out faster than the £300 alternative...but probably not 8 to 10x faster.

The only hitch with those wheels (I have 6000 miles on mine) is the hub has inferior waterproofing. If you frequently wash your bike you must remove the freehub and blast the bearings with compressed air or the bearings will start to go.

One tip I was given by a pro mechanic. After washing, spin your wheels for a while. It helps to push out water out of that area.. centrifugal forces push it out.

Got a set of those carbon wheelset that 60mm deep 3 years ago they are ok, the only problem I have is you could easily pull out the freehub body and it a hard to put back in.

I suggest getting a higher level wheelset with the upgraded hubs.
