These Road Wheels are Fast AF on Gravel:

[@hansschotterradler3772]

Looks like a nice wheelset to roooiiide

[@GravelCyclist]

I really enjoyed riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiding these wheels.

[@thelmaviaduct]

Up there with my favourite Australians, Elle MacPherson and Mark 'Chopper' Reid. Keep up the good work Jom ❤️👍🏿

[@jesuscruz836]

I have i9 hubs on my Reynolds. I love them.

[@thecappy]

I love my i9 mtn bike wheels. I’ll have to give these a shot next time I need a set.

[@GravelCyclist]

Look at the AR40C's, those were the wheels I was originally meant to receive.

[@floydharris2808]

Enjoyed the review however I need more Tuesday and general madness😃

[@bonbonflippers4298]

Oh yah! The Lynskeys back for a ride.

[@abfutrell]

What are your thoughts on the X1s so far? I've been enjoying mine in 45mm. Previously I was riding the SS and SK in a 38.

[@GravelCyclist]

Not to post a spoiler, they feel faster vs the SK's that I typically ride in 43mm. Like you, I am loving the 45mm X1's. I have a set of X1 R's in 45mm to mount up shortly, which are the lightest option. I'll be posting my review of both X1 variants, hopefully late July?

[@abfutrell]

@@GravelCyclist awesome! I've noticed overall improvement in my speed (even on climbs). I was able to dry mount mine on Hunt 35-X wheel a floor pump with very little effort.

[@GravelCyclist]

@@abfutrell They fit much better to so many more rims.

[@pej0s]

It's absolutely not worth it for this kind of money. New DT Swiss GRC 1100 DICUT for €2,500 1:52 It looks like the spokes in the center are bent, should they be routed upwards? Very narrow rims. On the road I have an inner 25 mm by 45 mm

[@GravelCyclist]

I have the GRC 1100 Dicut wheels in for review.

[@pej0s]

@@GravelCyclist No, of course. It's about the rationality of purchasing these and the rationality of using them in gravel

[@GravelCyclist]

@@pej0s Definitely a hard sell for many riders, I understand. I was supposed to receive the AR40C wheels for this review, which are equally expensive.

[@mlee6136]

100%, hooked rims get my wallet share.

[@GravelCyclist]

Indeed, I 100% do not trust hookless rims for higher pressure pavement-going applications. With that said, I have had good luck with lower pressure gravel tyres, but I understand everyone's misgivings.

[@havindy]

What’s wrong with the pool?

[@GravelCyclist]

Nothing. Initial scenes from early in the year, $hit ton of leaves fell into the pool. Cleaned out later. Thanks for your concern.

[@Bikerider52x11]

I was in love until the 21mm internal width.

[@GravelCyclist]

Which is relatively narrow by road standards circa 2024, which these wheels are really intended for.

[@thebuddingmusician]

What is AF?

[@GravelCyclist]

Fast.... as faaaaaark.

[@whatwouldjacobdo]

Not bloody likely!

[@DanielHandorff]

Pool boy on vacation?

[@GravelCyclist]

Or... early in the year, leaves fall into the pool. So worthwhile to leave them for the comments that invariably follow.... and clean up later. Thanks for the engagement!

[@dukechatsworth7382]

Clean your pool😄

[@petersouthernboy6327]

That's where he keeps the crocs

[@GravelCyclist]

Hahaha I recorded the opening scenes early in 2024, bloody trees kept dumping leaves. I promise you it is pristine now.

[@dustind9242]

@@GravelCyclist Haters... Next they are going to tell you to pull weeds, pressure wash your driveway, and to fix the cracks ;)

[@GravelCyclist]

See the other comments, one keyboard hero in particular felt very aggrieved by the state of the pool. You have to wonder about the cleanliness of his mum's basement.

[@evdb7246]

Clean your pool. Disgraceful.

[@evdb7246]

Aww….looks like I’m not alone in this thought.

[@GravelCyclist]

Leaves falling into the pool early in 2024 are so disgraceful. Maybe you should come over to help cleanup vs having a cry.

[@GravelCyclist]

I do love the pool comments, awesome how it triggers so many. Worth the video engagement, thanks!
