Winspace HYPER D33 Carbon Wheels - Are they any better?

[@thebespokecyclist3624]

The weight of my 38mm previous version is 1420gr total. My new D45 is 646 + 801 = 1447gr total which is an awesome improvement considering the 46+54 rims compared to 38 FR. The 38 was too heavy compared to the 1.2kg competitions. Will be installing them with 25 front + 28 rear tomorrow.

[@jasperverkuijl]

There may always be a lighter option but not sure if that always would be better. (For me since I’m heavy, some parts can be too light and just not strong/durable enough)

[@jasperverkuijl]

Anyway, nice upgrade!!

[@thebespokecyclist3624]

@@jasperverkuijl Indeed. Heavier but climbs better due to the stiff carbon spokes.

Nice video Jasper. Always like honest opinions. Been missing your vids though. I understand busy life with family and work. I'd watch a simple training ride video. You don't always have to edit them huge.

hey, thanks for the words. its nice to hear you're missing my content. I'm working on some new video's but have only little time. things got busy last few weeks. I cant just upload random shots, sorry, it needs to be adited properly for me to pass my own quality checks ;)

[@Mikeatcitycycle]

Good review sir. Good luck on Haute Route! As a wheelbuilder, I always preferred crossing spokes to touch either over or under the trailing spokes depending on lacing. Always thought they braced one another laterally a bit better. Otherwise you kind of end up with a radially laced rim. Just my opinion of course. I know lots of brands don't contact eachother at the cross.

[@jasperverkuijl]

Does it actually do anything though? Comparing it to radial spokes is a bit much imo

[@global_nomad.]

been happy with my hypers...no reason to change up but still waiting for your review to understand the differences...good luck on the Haute Route

[@jasperverkuijl]

The differences are there but they are small. I would not necessarily buy a new set. But maybe if you have the old hyper 50’s eg, the new 33 would be a good addition.

[@zeldon3684]

One question, 2020 hypers have ceramic hubs. And 2023 has steel. What difference does that make?

[@jasperverkuijl]

Not sure what you mean, thy hubs are aluminum. The bearings are ceramic All info is on the website. In general ceramic bearings are more high end than steel and more expensive All bearings will wear out eventually and are replaceable.

[@ryubatsoy2268]

Great video Jasper! I will purchase a set tomorrow but Im still torn between d33 or d45. How does d33 perform during climb? Is there a big difference in climbing performance from other hyper wheelsets you had before? Hope you can answer this mate, it will help me decide. Thank you!

[@jasperverkuijl]

Hey man, The d33 will be lighter (total weight) and lighter rim so less moment of inertia. (See more about that on my review of the “old” hypers) For climbing the 33 will be the best. Overall the 45 will be a very good choice. For me there was a year between the climbing event with the old hyper 50’s and the new hyper 33. I’d have to test them side by side to notice the difference tbh

what do you think. Should I take an additional d45 to my d33? or d33 will be enough? different trips, mountains, across the plains, training.

[@jasperverkuijl]

I would not buy the d45 when you already have the 33… but if you are looking for gains on the flat, higher rims are faster… But training rides and mountain rides you won’t need it. Maybe look at the new MEGA wheels, the 45 are lighter than hyper 33 🙌🏻

[@TheExtremePower]

great honest review. i used to think the same about Winspace and Lun wheels. i bought a pair of disc 50 hypers in November 2021. 1st impressions were so great that in Jan 2022 ordered a second pair. well, my 1st pair never held air for more than 3 days in the front wheel. i blamed it on other possible issues. after i received my second set, i noticed the same thing . front wheel not holding air for more than 2 or 3 days. i tried 3 different brand of tires with the same result. i contacted Winspace and they requested serial numbers and the likes. 3 weeks went by and no feedback from Winspace. i contacted them again and they recommended i replace the valve stem. i tried that and no improvement. after another 2 weeks of emails with Winspace they offered a $200 credit due to the fact that the only solution they could come up with was for me to use the front wheels with inner tubes. i agreed to it. it has been more than 3 weeks now and no refund and no communication from Winspace. i am assuming i have been taken by another chinese manufacturer like many people have. do not be fooled by all the great reviews. people are getting paid to post them.

[@jasperverkuijl]

I’ll pas it on to Winspace. Sorry for your bad experience. My wheels hold their air fine but tubeless wil ALWAYS leak! You need to pump every day! If you don’t want that, use inner tubes.

[@freerkduursma8210]

Great review Jasper! I've just purchased a set (D45) for my Road bike! I was wondering if you have an recommendations for tires to use on these awesome wheels.

I’m on 28mm corsa TLR. Works well

[@freerkduursma8210]

​@@jasperverkuijl Thank you! I will give them a try.

[@BosHK]

Any update on the D33s? I'm thinking of a pair of D33 too with 28c tires, but some friends have suggest the D45s instead......just a little hesitant about the rear 54mm becoming a sail

[@jasperverkuijl]

It’s about what you want to do with them. I’ve ridden the old hyper 50’s in all conditions and they where great. I think they are fine in X wind and this won’t be a problem.

[@gudzu2780]

So. they didn't worked to increase the hub and freehub? I see a lot of people suffering with premature abrasion on freehub o'ring. This is the only reason that I don't order a wheelset to me. Thanks bro

[@jasperverkuijl]

Which o ring? Only my old hypers with the red body had a plastic ring that wears out. The current generation hub body has wider engagement points and does have this ring. (If we both mean the same..)

[@bernardo9202]

saw that problem can be easily resolved just by re lubbing the hubs, don't know for sure

[@marekchmiel2741]

Jasper, I think I might need some help 😀. The last two years I've been building bikes from used frames and selling them for profit - I've now reached a point where I want to upgrade to a good carbon wheelset, but I can't decide whether to go rim or disc. The basic principle is to keep the wheels long term while trading the rest of the bike for profit. I live in an area with steep hills and I'm not the lightest - 75 kg, so I'm thinking it's better to go disc for the longevity of the rims? The only thing I'm afraid of is the maintenance cost. Also, what would you pick as the best VALUE wheelset? 2023 Hypers?

[@jasperverkuijl]

Hey dude. Since the industry is pretty much forcing all cyclist to discbrakes, the answer is easy, discs. Rim brake bike parts will come unavailable at some point and they are worthless too because nobody wants it anymore. Same reason I built up my Winspace SLC climbing bike with disc groupset. Best value for money is probably still the “old” hypers but for a small bit extra you will have wider rims which suit wide tires and low tire pressure better so I’d still go for the 2023 hypers 👌🏻 Steep hills is go for the low rim like i have in this video. The hub parts are all replaceable so you can maintain it forever and keep riding them a long time! Let me know what you decide!👍🏻👍🏻

[@Davido0013]

Hi! 🙂 Maybe u could help to decide what brand and which carbon wheels should I get? My rides are ussualy 30-100km with 100-400 meters of total climbs, so pretty flat. I think I should get around 45-50mm deep wheels? I could buy new zipp 303s from local shop for around 700 EU, or it would worth to spend around 1170 eu for Windpace hyper wheels? Or maybe something else? Also prefer louder hub sound as there where i live many pedestrians walking on bike paths and i dont like bells 🙂

[@jasperverkuijl]

If you are not about the pure speed, the hyper d33 will be very good but also the 45. Nothing them are very similar and i would only recommend a specific one if you are very specific in your demands. Great set of wheels for the price!

[@irediicz]

I am soooo looking forward to seeing you rock this bike in the alps at haute route :) Can't wait for the footage!

[@kentwong3818]

are the 2023 hypers center-lock or 6 bolt? I want to buy them but Winspace's own spec.sheet page doesn't mention this important detail haha.

Awesome man!!🤙🏻🤙🏻

[@MarkBurghouwt]

Wider internal rim width doesn’t make a tire more aero right?!? It’s just wider so higher cda (surface)

[@jasperverkuijl]

the wheel/tire combination will get more aero because the transition from wheel to tire is more smooth (when they are similar with). So the surface may go up but the drag coefficient will go down making the drag go down. If you'd use a very narrow tire, you're better off with a narrow rim (like the old hypers). but the wider tire gives less rolilng resistance so in the end the wider rims with wider tires are probably faster on the normal road and the skinny tires with skinny rims are faster on perfect smooth indoor track e.g.

[@MarkBurghouwt]

@@jasperverkuijl That makes sense, thanks for clearing it up for me!

[@LoscoeLad]

@@jasperverkuijl do you think the old 19mm internals are better with 25mm, or the new ones?

[@zendzain7765]

how about wheel balance? I got the old one and it's not balance, it feel like a little bumpy on a high speed (idk how to explain it). so I have to add more grams on the wheels, about 15.

[@jasperverkuijl]

Check your tire? I think tires are more out of balance than the wheels. Maybe rotate the tire a bit to change the balance.

[@pennyblue6372]

everytime my wheel was wobbeling, was because of the tire.

Did you apply decals to these or were they shipped this way? The white logos are decals right?

You can ask Winspace directly. I don’t know

[@yonglingng5640]

I work in a workshop where we sell Winspace products, so I can try and see if the end caps from a rim brake wheelset can be used on its disc brake counterpart when I have free time as I'm quite busy these days. Mind you, the hub spacing is different for both open and closed dropout formats, although I personally doubt it'd work, like a DT Swiss 240 (non-EXP version), but hey, since you mentioned it, no harm in trying I suppose. Open dropout disc Front: 9x100 mm, just like a rim brake front wheel Rear: 9x135 mm, 5 mm wider than a rim brake rear wheel Closed dropout disc Front: 12x100 mm Rear: 12x142 mm
