Really some of the best looking wheels for me I have seen in a while, now this is an opinion of mine and I know people have different styles but These wheels really caught my eye, and when you pair that with the rim width and the reliability of the dt swiss internals for the hubs, The wheels are a great option for a reliable wheelset that is strong and stiff that looks different from the rest

30 mm outside width feels just a hint too thin. With that you'd be looking at 28.5 mm measured width tyres for aerodynamics (rule of 105), so likely 27x700c. The Roval CLX II, which tests as one of the fastest wheels, are front 35mm and rear 30.7mm width (rear doesn't matter as much). But anyway, interesting wheels! Would be happy to see them in some tests soon.

Norcal cycling did a test recently, and this was the slowest of 3 wheels in that test. Cheap Chinese wheels introduce very exotic things, too wide rims, carbon spokes, ceramic bearings, etc etc which are not a result of engineering for speed AT ALL.
@GCPerformance182 ай бұрын
yea of course, I do not think the design really does anything, but also norcal videos are also a little bit of bro science, no matter what tech he has, there are always variables there that he can not control like weather and wind, its small things but thoise things can have massive changes to results
