This is a review of the Farsports Ventoux C series carbon wheels. They are 56mm depth
Overall review was these wheels were very well made and performed well. Their aerodynamic stability was good and will manage gusting conditions well. Build quality of the wheels was excellent, there were no mechanical issues and there was no damage beyond wear and tear over the 4000km test duration.

Farsports have given Hambini viewers a discount code Hambini50 which can be used for the purchase of wheels. (This is not an affiliate coupon and I DO NOT receive any financial compensation.)
For clarity, the reviewed wheels had steel Sapim spokes and TPI bearings. These wheels are available with ceramic bearings and that option is not recommended - there is a likelihood of severely diminished performacne over a short period of time.

I have four sets of Farsports wheels. Well built, thousands of miles on gravel and road. The only "issue" with them is that because you aren't paying for crash insurance when you buy them, if something does happen, you need to pony up for a rim and arrange for someone to build it up. Highly recommended. Fantastic value for money.
FWIW, I wouldn't classify the rim's optimization for tubeless as a bad thing. It's more just a noteworthy thing. Obviously, not for everyone, but as you note it's totally fine to run them with tubes if you want to roll that way.
A few points:
0.5 I'm on Instagram but I don't know how to use it @hambinieng
1. There is a discount code in the description. IT IS NOT AFFILIATED
2. Some of the technical aspects around testing and how the things work will be covered in a separate video - I've had lots of requests for it now and judging by the comments, I think viewers are much more technically aware than they used to be so I'm going to do that.
I bought a set of SuperTeam carbon clinchers with aluminum braking surfaces and I really like them. We have a lot of wind in the San Francisco Bay area and I seldom have steering difficulties with the deep wheels. About the same as box section rims. The aluminum braking is something you really need here. I think having a stop sign at the bottom of a 9% grade pretty much precludes carbon braking surfaces. After 3 years of running tubeless, they just weren't worth the mess and often flats for a slight loss of rolling resistance. And I bought the best tires. I've also gone to titanium. Yes they are heavier but I am not joe racer. And carbon forks are more reliable than carbon frames. Though you wouldn't know that until your 10th year on a carbon frame.
Thanks for the stability response 👍, not quite that good at "in depth" (your profession) i did do basic lift and aerodynamic principals when I was in the Airforce some years ago. Looking forward to your follow up. So my question is more about the shape of the tail on the rim changing from older wheels coming to more of a point vs the rounded back and if this affects the collapsing of the air flow between the two designs when you recieve a yaw/sideways gust. From my limited training, rounded back will help reduce the pressure difference on the opposing side near the rear of the rim. Or is this not such a big difference at bicycle speed?
Same here no clue
@@Hambini cheers 👍
@@waynosfotos mmm.. Interesting my reply has been deleted
I got come 38mm carbon Farsports last summer, running them with vittoria Corsa and latex tubes with no issue. Had them built with sapim cx ray and DT swiss 350 hubs. They've been faultless. They let me change the colour of 2 nipples (either side of the spoke hole) and their communication was perfect. Don't forget these guys are no longer closed as "cheap chinese carbon" since the Austrian lady won the Olympic road race with their handlebar/stem combo last week. *rolls eyes*
Which of their rims did you go for (which series)?
@@olisharp6801 hey dude sorry it's late I got a pair of customized ones so I think it had their "classic" rim
I just checked the prices, and they’re higher than I expected.
@@petesjk how much are you expecting UCI approves carbon rims with DT 350 hubs and Cx Ray spokes to cost?
They’re the same price as Mavic Ksyrium, and less than half the price of Roval.
You’re entitled to your opinion of course, but they seem like pretty good value to me!
have 50mm, other than that same wheels. lowsided 36 mph and they have a couple tiny scratches, other than that, amazing wheels. If they survive that crash, theyll survive many crashes and beatings. consider that my structural test.
You cleaned the wheels with Meth? I think that explains a lot, especially the "helloooo, Hambini fans!!!"
Funny .Meths or methylated spirits will make you go blind and clean your brake blocks at the same time 😂
It's not cool to make drug addicted ghosts clean your stuff :/
He's talking about methylated spirits ("meths") not methamphetamines ("meth"). One will clean your brakes, the other will turn you into a tweaker.
I especially took my headphones off, and I was nearly deafened by the intro. Well done Hambini :)
Nice indepth review! How many other TH-cam can do what you do! Super well behave too in this one, it will take some getting use to but I like it!
I've been running a set of Farsport with DT350 hubs and they have been great, ride them all year and no issues.
Nice review H! Enjoyed it!💪
I bought a pair of Ican tubular carbon wheels to ride on the track at the end of 2019. Due to you-know-what I never had a chance to race on them. I must add the service from Ican was brilliant, they even paid the import/VAT tax for me !
I have mixed feelings as a small bike shop owner.
I sell DT Swiss and now I'm an official dealer of LUN (Winspace) I think I will have to make a video on this subject as soon as I get my new camera. All I can say is Chinese products are getting better and the old boys of the wheel world are going to need to be nicer and drop their price a lot or they will see customers disappearing fast.
Would be interested to see this video when u make it.
The writing has been on the wall for at least a decade for me. It happened in the ‘70’s with Japanese motorcycles. If you couldn’t afford a Euro or American bike you got a Japanese bike. Those bikes started to sell really well and now they make the best bikes on the planet. Chinese stuff will eventually go the same way.
@@joelzylstra2971 Ducati are made in Italy
@@robbiddlecombe8392 don’t get me wrong, I have no patience or sympathy for the bad actors putting other peoples name on their fraudulent knock offs. I have never nor would I ever ride knock off parts. It’s a big industry there though, and there is a growing trend of honest decent stuff as well.
China are doing a great job of exporting. Their most famous export at the start of 2020 was free of charge to the entire world. How do you feel about supporting the China economy when they have stuffed virtually every Western economy? Time to consider the big picture.
I'm running 3 sets of far sports wheels. No issues ever with any of them over the years of ownership. Excellent wheels and build quality. Wet weather braking on my clincher wheels is next level good.
I have bought wheels direct from Chinese makers over the past 10 years, so far no problems and quailty builds at great prices in spite of import/tax duties
Great review, we want more!
I’m riding 50mm regular Farsports for 2 years now with DT240s and Pro One Addix TLEs. Just did some descending on them in Sicily this week at near 40C and the brake track is intact, no delamination. I can definitely recommend them as well. Solid quality.
I have some ICAN Wheels and they are just perfect! Running super smooth and super stable Downhill! I was always scared with my 60mm spin on these at around 70kmh... But with 40mm I would take my hands off the bike.. (maybe)
I like the noname brands - in the end it's about fun
Hambini video with no roasting is unheard of.
Just ordered my 3rd wheelset from Farsports one month ago. The two others (road and mtb) worked without any issues for thousands of miles. But you are right - over here in Germany my friends are still looking for big „brands“ …
I always make sure to turn the volume way down before I click a Hambini video.
i put farsports rims on my commuting bike - with blind spoke holes, on a disc brake - made up them myself, bit of a hassle to build!. but got them to < 0.1mm lateral and radial.
been very happy with them.
I recently bought Light Bicycle wheels with DT Swiss hubs. Couldn't be happier. The wheels, as well as many Farsports wheels, are UCI approved. Why anyone would pay double or triple the price for "name" is beyond me.
Thanks for the video! I appreciate all the effort you put into your videos. I have also been looking light bike custom builds. Unfortunately, the price for these wheels just went up to $1699. I can buy a comparable weight, 46 mm wheels set for $1300. It is crazy how prices are going up. I bought a Specialized Roubaix comp etap axs in July and the same bike is now $1900 more expensive.
I bought a Farsport carbon wheelset 50mm a few months ago. I built the wheels with Sapim spokes and DT 240 hubs. The wheels are of high quality and remains true. I am no light weight and weigh 100kg and so far the wheels have not given my any problems what so ever. I am running Pirelli Velo 28 tires and because the internal width is wide, the tires measure 31mm wide. At 50mm the wheels weigh 1335 gr which are very light. I experienced excellent communication with Farsport. They are not cheap but well worth the price of admission.
An assessment of the spoke tensions would be good to add to these reviews- if the runout is good and the tensions are even it's a good sign of a well made rim.
finally Hambini time !!!
I'm going to name you Lord Lucan, great video BTW👍🏽
I have a set of FarSport wheels. Rim brake, tubeless, road, standard spoke holes, 50mm. The are great, except that they pulse under braking. I have cleaned the braking surface, but that doesn't help much. I have about 4,500 miles on them. I built a set for my daughter's XC 27.5" race bike. Those have no holes in the rim bed. They came out to be 1300g on DT Swiss 240s hubs. No problems at all. I'm ordering a third set now for my CX bike today. I have had great luck with FarSport wheels. My Bontrager Kovee pro's have 2000 miles in the last 6 months...they are already creaking and moaning.
I’ve looked at their website and noticed a “build your own” feature and they do sell wheels with standard spoke holes 👍🏿
From a MTB pespective I started to use CN products this season and I can't fault them. 11-46 cassette from ZTTO is super light and so far has taken the abuse pretty well. Pair of boost hubs from ARC are doing well too even after serious bike park abuse. Bearing are shoot tho but I suspect it is the disc side which always go first because of the heat made by the braking. In my 15 years in the sport I had all sorts of hubs including Hope and those are performing as I would expect from any other brand, difference is I get 114 poe and they cost me 70€ delivered. I will certainly keep using these 2 products for my future builds.
Bought a 40mm Asy/36 mm rim only combo from Farsports earlier this year, built up with some recycled Reynolds/DT Swiss 240 hubs and DT Aerocomp spokes. Rims are awesome although returning to carbon brake tracks, as good as they are, has been an adjustment.
I’m 7000 miles in to a pair of Farsports 50mm carbon rim brake hoops on DT 240’s with C X-ray spokes.
Cost me £750 delivered and were true out of the box and have been flawless . Braking with Black Prince pads is excellent. Highly recommended
I should add that I’m on the second pair of Conti 5000 clinchers paired with latex tubes. I have no issues with tyre fitting and can roll them on with thumbs alone. 🤷🏻♂️
general oppinion: Great wheels, been using them many years with 0 problems, (350 hubs)... One big negative, that hambini didnt mention: the delivery time for me was 2 months. So bare that in mind, even if they say its 1 month. For me it was 2 months (probably 1 month for manufacturing and 1 for shipment to EU)
I regret wearing headphones without first turning the volume right down.
I bought the most basic Farsport Classic 50mm rim brakes wheelset with Novatec hubs in November 2019. Arrived in December. I paid £470. Setup tubeless with schwalbe pro one's. Have done almost 400 miles. No issues so far. No issues with braking. I think only Prime RR-50 V3 comes close on value.
GODDAMMIT>>>>>>forgot to adjust volume before clicking.....oh well new windows again :))
School girl error
My old computer /lagging YT website saved me, had enough time to turn down the volume ;-)
@@Hambini In a silverbacks's mood? I hope for some proper power point presentation with Aerocoach and all in the video :-D
Every time! Just subbed yr channel btw, hidden gem right there.
To rule out the variable of getting sent hand-picked the best wheels you would need to make a friend or family buy a pair of wheels for you and then you can assess better if the quality of the build and the technical support is as good as the review units
His proper name isn't Sachin Hambini, but even if he put HAMBINI down at the order, the simple people who process the orders likely don't even know about this channel.
@@82vitt they know him enough to send them a pair of wheels for free in the hopes that his review on said wheels will make them more money.
I can only review what is sent to me. The possibility exists that I would get a more perfect set of wheels but you could say that about anything
@@rodrigomaero the same applies to anyone else sending in stuff for review and if they don't make sure it's correct before sending in they are idiots and deserve everything they get
@@francobones I agree with that, but what they send to reviewers is not representative of what you (regular customer) get if you buy it. If you're on the market for some product you read reviews in the hopes to get the same product that you see in the reviews and this may not be the case. This is why I take every review with a grain of salt.
Hes so funny and seems super smart. Great job
I bought some Elite SLR Chinese wheels, which look to have very similar hubs to the Farsport wheels $650 landed in Australia. Looking forward in trying them out.
If Hambini didn't clean his wheels, me Santa Clause and the Tooth fairy all agreed that we were gonna have to put down another unicorn.
Mmm two! Fiskars shovels, the best tool for shovelling without question, light and fast.
Basically all the big names are shitting themselves because you can get better quality goods at less than half the price direct from china and these less known manufacturers.Yoeleo-Winspce-Trifox all have came out miles ahead of big brands who rip us all off! I appreciate your roasts because they are no bull shit no nonsense just an honest review! You ,peak torque, cam-nichols all are spot on!
Had my far sport wheel set for 5 years. Had no problems. I run Michelin tyres.
Missed you man
I was anticipating a follow-up Team GB track bike reeming, but this will do.
That's coming
What about the Danes and their shin tape. I'd appreciate a PowerPoint on whether there are any aero gains.
@@Hambini looking forward to that 😎
between the Hyper and Farsports, it seems a tradeoff for carbon spokes and raw finish or superior braking surface. Both are within $100 of each other.
To have such a technical assessment if fine but in the scheme of things after visibly looking at build quality, finnish, spoke tension would have been a prerequisite to graph. It shows what is going on in the wheel and displays build quality. It also can give an insight into potential future issues regarding longevity, also upper tensions, variability. You can have a wheel that's perfectly true with very fine tolerances in lateral, radial run-out with high variability in tensions.
FFS Hambini, please do this vid again and slag the f%@k out of Farsport, I really don't want proletariat finding out about these wheels, prices may rise! I've had a pair of their gravel wheels built on DT swiss 350's, covered around 10,000 miles of serious abuse. Still true, still the best wheelset I've ever used and they cost me a 1/4 of the branded equivalent.
Yeah noticed winspace put a $100 on their wheelsets recently.
@@swites Heaven forbid the folks in china building these wheels make more than $10/day...
@@jasonhendrickson2289 You think the workers are getting the money from expensive rebadged chinese rims/wheels sold under a western brand name? lol But seriously Yeah its good. Means they're getting more market share so can afford to put their prices up without losing sales.
Well I went with a set of Pro 50 Yeoleo wheels. For under a $1000 shipped they are amazing. No funky off name hubs, spokes or nipples. DT Swiss, Black Sapim CX-Ray spokes, Black Titanium Quick Release Skewers. Very easy to work with and have been at it for some time. For example I wanted a plated brass nipple, not alloy (that corrodes fast in my coastal area) and the did that no charge. I have put 10,000 miles on my set just this year at I’m a 225lb fat ass. Still straight and true. Not a cheap wheel but x100 better than my junk Mavic Cosmetics that fell apart.
Returning subscriber here, really enjoyed the stability slide and good amount of nerdery overall. Also, the reduced swearing was refreshing and hopeful that can continue. Anecdote, my 2021 Farsports Feder (discs) with Carbon-ti hubs has only seen around 2000km but took the Swedish autumn and some gravel miles like a boss.
I've got a pair of Yoeleo wheels and they've been great.
I checked out the link and chose a pair of 35mm tubeless Shimano disc wheels. With standard shipping (10-25 days) these were 1161 Euro. I'm guessing from the shipping times these are shipped from the far east which will incur another 10% in import duties and 21% VAT. This just isn't on for unsupported far east mail order wheels. This kind of money buys you a set of fully supported A brand wheels at your local bike shop. Fully warrantied and repairable when needed.
I have some 56mm wheels from Light Bicycle with an identical looking braking surface which they call "GGB" or grooved graphene brake track, which I gather is comprised of a high Tg epoxy and graphene powder to improve thermal conductivity. The quality is exceptional and the braking with SwissStop Black Prince pads is superior to my alloy wheels.
do you find them stable or easy to handle? ("how long is a piece of string" question, I know)
great review - another brand I've been looking at is Light Bicycle, wondering if you'll do a review on a set of those wheels?
elitewheels, CSC, btlos are a few that come to mind. Remember, many of these companies are builders, not manufacturers. they may manufacture the rims (to which we wont know, i think farsports does) but the spokes, hubs, nipples, bearings, all of them are outsourced. so these guys are predominately wheel builders.
There is no doubt in my mind that with the right amount of time there's nothing Asia won't do well. I think it will come down to differences that don't matter and that's going to be tough on brands trying to be premium. The bigger problem is going to be finding people with decent jobs to buy anything.
Poor people aren't buying carbon bike wheels and rich people got richer the last year so I don't think there's a shortage of customers for high end bike stuff.
@@jasonhendrickson2289 Even so the supply is going to overrun demand.
nice pointing out Badge smear, I am myself too hung up on it,needed that
thanks for very technical info !!
that being said these wheels are expensive
PLS test BA composites :-)
Salute Gambini 🙏👍🔥🇵🇷💯
I owned similar model, 50mm depth front/rear and wide 26, same spokes, very suffered crosswind! braking performance with fulcrum pads very very good. Changed only to go disc brake. My next carbon wheelset will be Farsport Feder but 35 depth.
What does "very suffered crosswind" mean?
@@StrategyPerformance I mean when the wind blows from side (or when meet a truck) the front wheel is hard to manage.
Great video. I ordered from Farsports with the DT Swiss 240 EXP? What do you think with that combination with the hubs?
Any chance you can go into the stability and F plot in more detail? you said it was in an upcoming video, do you have a link?
I'm sure you delivered a honest review. My concern is that the supplier may have delivered a premium build set to you for review while the actual item for sale to us mere mortals is of a different quality. A review is only trustworthy if it's a blind review. This means that you as the reviewed purchased the wheels and reviewed them without the knowledge of the manufacturer.
Hambini A little question: Have you checked the balance of the wheels? I ride yoeleo’s C50’s which I’m happy with and been problem free for 5000 km. However they are a little unbalanced for my taste about 6-7 g each. My Dt Swiss P1800’s are spot on.
Did you notice anything with the Farsports rims?
Who'd want to watch this after we'd already had a Farsports wheel review from Tracevelo last month 😉
Hello and welcome Hambini
would like to see you do a review on Yoeleo's... I have a set of SAT 50/88 SL's 23mm wide, they were out of true, when i pumped tube and tire to 100 psi: the carbon split near the hooked rim part. Also: they are suppose to be tubeless, however the water drain hole was leaking air when i was trying to set them up tubeless....
I bought a set of wheels from #farsports back in May for my salsa cutthroat it rolls beautifully , I couldn't believe what was seeing when I unboxed them very well made .
I've pinged you an email
I’ve been looking for a new set of rim brake wheels and the shit sandwich known as Brexit means that no one seems to be willing to sell me the DT Swiss dicut oxic replacements I crave… I’m even more inclined to try Far Sport now especially the degree of customisation they offer. Great vid. Thank you.
PS given the choice which hubs do you rate higher i.e. carbon ti, DT Swiss, Chris King, etc?
I would get the far sports look or winspace hubs. Both are well made
Graham, I have a pair of the 21mm dicut oxic with DT 240 etc, they're great, unsure if I'd sell... But I'm pretty sure there's a set on eBay ATM. Can get you the link if interested
Super interesting plot regarding vibration loss. What kind of machinery do you use to get that data?
I much prefer tubeless non-spokehole rims as you don't need to worry about rimstrips etc. Probably a bugger if you break a spoke but had my yeoleo's since '18 and ultegra's since '16 and haven't broken a spoke yet touch wood. Cx-ray on former btw.
Well behaved mature review. Respect. Saves me having to go outside and hide before listening.
I have Farsport Kaze 69 tubeless and 35mm tubular; great wheels; 35 tubulars weight 1020g, both of them with carbon ti hubs; just cant beat it for the price
How much do the deep ones weigh?
@@elijahkwon422 1620g
@@janeztomazic5546 Do you think the 78mm ones would be too heavy or just insanely fast
@@elijahkwon422 from my experiance weight doesnt really mater much; i am using the 35mm only on steep climbs 8%+ and even there the results are almost the same as 69mm; so, if you dont ride only climbs lets say 6%+ I would have no problem buying 78s, my next purchase will be even deeper wheels, they really are a joy to ride
Have you seen the farsports RD230 hubs in the feder series these are crazy light. Disc wheel builds just over 1kg. Not sure if 21 spokes on a disc wheel sits right with me though 🤔
Direct to consumer sales may rise as small retailers fail. Sheldon Brown's popular bike technical website is still running but his shop just closed down (Harris Cyclery in Boston, USA).
that is quite sad.
@@Hambini The technical site is awesome. Hopefully some people get together to try to reopen the shop but I'm not sure that is realistic. Apparently, bike shops that can't get bikes or parts in have a rough go of it.
Noooooo!!!
Hambini - I notice a distinct lack of cussing in this one... that's got to be one of the most positive things you can (not) say about an item. Nicely done.
It was a good set of wheels, I can't say anymore
Any recommendations for brake pads that are "rim friendly"? Of course regular cleaning is important but which pads would you recommend? I'd rather wear out the pads than the rims especially since I do a fair amount of climbing here in the Black forrest. Viele Grüße und Dankeschön
Great review! Love the actual science behind the statements. Would they be more aero if covered in Danish kinesiology tape?
@@Hambini When a 5 year old corrects a 10 year old! 😂

the cones of my speakers almost flew through the room with the introduction LOL!
Hello Hambiniiii!
I'm wondering... In many of your videos you say, that aluminium spindles on cranks get crushed from the stainless steel races of the bearings. Is it normal, that the axles on hubs are aluminium? Don't they have the same problem as the spindles with the bearing material?
Thank you in advance,
Alles in Obi!
wheels don't receive the same cyclical forces as a crank axle so you don't get the load transfer. Additionally, the bearings are going into machined holes so the fit tends to be better.
@@Hambini thank you!
I bought a pair of 45 mm disc feder wheels that I'm about to throw on my bike. Only thing is I don't have a spoke tension meter.. How necessary do you think it is for me to check this right away? Do you think they have consistent enough build quality, or should I just buy a tension meter?
Hamibini, if I remember correctly you once told us about these Mavic wheels which had this rubber (?) thing which was put in the gap between tyre and rim. I think you said, that was great for aerodynamics, but the UCI banned it. My question: Could I just put some silicone in the gap? Would it make the wheel considerably faster?
Yes there is a video that shows just that. It's worth doing
I have found that pedaling harder gives more results. Also, what happens when the silicone comes loose and gets trapped in the brakes? Don't be that guy. Buy quality stuff and hammer!
@loopie007 you're missing the point of this channel, mate.
@@Hambini Cyclespeed Tours did a piece on the silicon gap thing on his channel - the man with a massive lawnmower!
@@Hambini silicone is so messy. I wonder if a siliconized acrylic caulk would be better? I may try that
Just waiting for Peak Torque to comment!
Any huge difference with winspace wheel? With one is your fav wheels @hambini
I’d like to see you test a wheelset from lightbicycle. 🥺
Hambini having a group barbecue?
How much charcoal does a person need? Is 8kg enough. 😀😀
I guess the question is the pros vs cons of the big 3 wheels then... winspace, far sports or yeoleo... all seem to stack up to usage tests, but it seems the far sports have the best brake track? Assuming all else remains more or less equal*
This is out of topic, but i'll shamelessly ask anyway.
I'm looking at Sensah carbon 2x11 groupset.
They came with carbon fibers (obviously) on the rear derailleur cage and shifters. Which got me thinking. Does carbon handles friction well?
I looked at a few forums (sailing forums), and they don't seem like the idea of having a metal rivet meet with carbon.
Looking at the joints on carbon fiber parts from trace velo is worrying. The carbon shifter lever has a gouge at the point where it is in contact with aluminium part. Derailleur cage is especially worrying because it rotates very frequently and possibly rubbing with chain on road bumps. The cage is non removable if i'm not mistaken.
In short. Will it be durable?
The customers are doing their validation testing for them. The customers tell them what breaks and then they will improve it. They have outsourced that job and you save $'s.
A clean wheel in a Hambini video almost feels wrong...
It's to make it Karen friendly
@@Hambini hopeless dream🤔🤪

Hambini’s had enough dirty rims in his time
Hi Hambinie! Do you know any carbon rim with 21mm inner width for rim brake ? Like Hed Belgium+ but carbon made. Thanks!!
Hambini, what kind of equipment do you use for the measurement of vibration frequency?

Hello Hambini! We've got a new set of wheels that's 69mm deep - the prototype is being evaluated locally in Singapore, but would you be interested in testing it once it's done?
That depends if you are happy to have them roasted if they are crap!
Incoming!
@@Hambini lol....probably regretting the offer.
@Hambini of course! Been watching your videos for years we know the deal. The local evaluation is so we're at least reasonably confident that they're not a pile of dogshite.
@@ascentbikes Okay let's go for it!
The braking performance of Farsport wheels is better than my al wheels. BUT. After 10K+ miles the front rim does seem to be eating Swisstop Black Prince blocks. Maybe the braking surface is starting to become coarser. Opinions welcome.
As a mountain biker on a limited income, I buy Chinese cycling parts and products.... pedals, grips, rotors, brake pads, brake hoses, tubeless bits and pieces... the quality is as good as ..... or better!
I've been using Yeoleo wheels around $1000 with DT swiss hub. Wanna try Farsports next year. But the prices of rim brake carbon wheels from major brands are also going down these days. So not sure what am i supposed to buy...
I'll never go back to tubes...
crash into an Opel Astra :D you're great, man
What kinda keyboard you using? Sounds like reds/browns or just normal toddler key smashing
Same one I've had since 1999
Does the brake track remind anyone of Mavic Exalith?
Can you also review the winspace hyper 38mm?
Chinese wheels are definitely on the rise, really exciting to see them getting better and more popular. A lot of my local fast group ride guys are using them (mostly LB but Farsport getting more popular now too).
