- Reviewing the Black Inc FIVE - which, might I stress, was not a paid gig. They are team sponsors but I was under no duress to do this. Just really rated the wheels!
If you want to get some yourself, here's the link and Alex10 gets you a 10% discount on all wheels. 5% of any sale also goes to my charity Little Bleeders. Could say that's wheelie nice.

Thanks for the video, what tires are you using on these wheels? Would you use other ones? Any tire recommendations for wet, dry, mountains???
@@Olguini91 don’t think he’ll say much as this is something he is sponsored by
Good to know I have been running my tyres with 30% too much pressure…
It just seems wrong to hit the road with 60psi in a 28mm tyre (I weigh 76kg).
But I put in the system weight and measured width right so guess I’ll give it a go.
Interestingly, Pirelli’s recommended tyre pressure matches up with what the calculator would tell me if the width printed on the casing were the width of the tyre when it’s on the rim…

YES, we the people want to see Chanel do many reviews as possible.
Finally a wheel that is easy to clean!
Let the people hear Chanel's bike expertise. The people demand it.
Yes, please!!!
Chanel, ffs just do a review already! we're waiting for the longest time!
Yes Chanel MUST definitely review something soon. One of the best videos ever was the review of your Canyon bike.
Yes. Absolute classic that was (I still laugh playing it back in my mind)…..not sure how many times you can ‘re-create the wheel’ though….
Chanel, rise to the challenge 😋 the bar has been set, now let’s see some more ‘reviews’.
Chanel's review of your Katusha bike is one of the best and funniest cycling reviews on TH-cam, she should really do more
Yes we want Chanel to do a review of kind of anything!
New video idea: "how aero is a baby? UNBELIEVABLE wind tunnel results!"
Ironically, during my ride this morning, I was wondering when the next Chanel review would be! Then I watched this video, and the comments are absolutely clear….
Five spoke wheels are revisited every few years. I actually
like the look of 5 spoke wheels probably from my old bmx days. If the rigidity increased and you don't have to worry about spoke tension its a plus.
Black Inc should gift you the wheels Alex the cost to them is small for your exposure by just riding them outside of racing.
Chanel needs to review anything at all she wants to. Loved this vid. Love this vid - thanks Alex!
Seated sprints ✅
Standing sprints ✅
150km Sportive ✅
4000+ meters of climbing ✅
Ridden to the café ✅🥇☕️👈 This is the most important content as it’s where these wheels will no doubt spend most of their life. Cycling can be a fashion accessory. Don’t worry about the performance, do they look good outside the coffee shop? 👀👍
To be fair, for a wheel of that complexity it's quite competitive with the good carbon wheels on sale. Still can't afford them . They are cool looking though !!
Can see the hill climbing guys using them.
I would love to see to Chanel do more videos about the thermomix. I saw her do one last year and because of her we bought one. It has been life changing. Keep the videos coming.
Your reviews are great. Chanel’s are on another level. She MUST make a comeback.
God, that Mavic wheel is gorgeous! 😍
Nice review @Alex Dowsett. Since this is non UCI, I'm guessing it can be used in triathlons! Now to find that sort of money!!
More in the aero part….. that almond shape you drew replicates an airplane wing to a degree. The upper half of the wing on a plane is more rounded than the bottom. Why? High pressure seeks low pressure, so, the air over the top of the wing has a longer distance to travel to meet up with the airflow speeding almost straight across the bottom. The result is a lower pressure on top of the wing and higher pressure on bottom, thus high seeks low (high pressure below wants to meet up with low pressure above) and creates lift. They also use something called Bernoulli’s principal. As air is squeezed pressure drops and velocity increases, and vice versa. That’s why the upper half of the wing is more rounded than the bottom. Apply Bernoulli’s principal to high and low pressure, and this is what makes planes fly, and the bike industry has copied for decades. Tube and wheel shaping is literally playing around with these 2 principals to maximize aerodynamic efficiency within UCI rules if that’s what they’re following.
Just thought though - if they aren’t UCI sanctioned wheels then the spokes also don’t need to be 3:1, right?
yes, but here comes in place the mass to cda graph. These should be on the sweet spot between drag and weight, so it does make sense if you think this way
Anything reviewed by Chanel is of great interest: an egg, a spoon or a sock. Her style will make it fascinatingly hilarious.
Chanel, give the people what they want.
I would love to see a video of you reviewing video footage of you doing seated sprints :) , seriously I would love to see more reviews like this.
Upvote, just because you said Kamm tail :) Loved the video. Spot on. Now go get that hour record!
Nice wheels honest review, did wonder what the politics of tour riders reviewing bike tech was like, though I did think BMX when I first saw them.
So similar to Aerospokes, stiff with lots of road feel. Great assessment of these cool wheels. I wonder if they will ever be available for rim brakes.
Literally drooled on... Can't return them for hygienic reasons in a pandemic.
Priced perfectly for the target audience (62-year old lawyers looking to beat their dentist buddies on a week end group ride).
What an amazing channel discovery! Congrats from Spain!
Yes please to Chanel reviews about anything :-)
Nice review although they’re not in my price range. Yes to more Chanel reviews if that’s possible.
Alex, where is the link for the tyre pressures?
Wonderful review! Those wheels made you happy!
Nice improvement for the stability and the audio 🙂
Did you finally get a tripod? If so, perhaps Chanel can review that. Also are you at altitude? Not sure I've heard it mentioned recently.
Look it's simple; there are less spokes to clean. I'm in
This could be the answer to disc brakes applying braking forces through the spokes. This is i feel is a big negative to the disc brake design.
As to the wheel letting go, remember a spoke wheel has sideways flex, on purpose to act like suspension to maintain the tyre contact with the ground, over bumps and undulations as a road bike has no suspension.
Interesting wheel, thanks for the review.
Hey. Thanks for e review. Hear u abt the wheels being aero.. but any experience in cross winds? How did they handle in those situations...as its said that such wheels tend to succumb to cross winds more easily versus regular spoked wheels.
Hoping you do a review on the new Factor Slick when you get it.
Old school slide rule caliper! Not many people can read those accurately after the invention of dials and digital readouts.
Nice review Alex. Could u pls inform Black Inc that my 63rd Birthday 🎂🍰🍷🍸 is in Mid August & l could put them 2 Gr8 use. Unfortunately l dont ride a Factor Road Bike. ❤ the Factor climbing road bike in black with the Factor Logo in multi colors. Awesome 👀👀👀 Road Bike.
Thx 4 sharing Alex.
I think Xentis Mark 3 SL are the best of both worlds. Aero and lightweight.
I'm at the point where iv snapped my front wheels 3 times a month from me pushing extremely hard into a corner at 70+ kmh and it goes bang about 3kms up the road
That's a wheelie nice video Mr Dowsett
Glad he spoke up
Obviously since there is only one mold and you are trying to supply the whole World you need to price them so you can keep up with demand. I'm sure they did the analysis and figured out just where to price them and they don't want every BMX'r wanting them for their single speeds. But the serious Ironman would have no problem dropping the cash. I do think for several reasons the UCI is correct in not allowing these types of wheels. Pretty good coverage of your opinion of these wheels though Alex.
He mentioned they're aero but how does that compare to the deeper section Forty Five or Sixty wheelsets? The benefits of the Five include lower weight and more stiffness. The traditional spoked deeper section wheels are clearly more compliant but are they more aerodynamic?
If I win the lotto or just make alot of money someday I will buy both sets and a wind tunnel and find out.
@@cbb3062 I own the Fives now. They’re meant for perfect roads, which aren’t common in the US. Great handling with cross winds and climbing but very harsh. No compliance.
Those wheels look pretty cool
I’d love a set, so when your finished with them just pop um in the post ta!
Maybe not there is no way to attach my speed sensor.
watching this before a ride
the bike ahead wheels are also pretty popular but this looks like its much more stronger and lighter.
"ceramic spread such a nice touch"
Uses an Ambini BB with NTN bearings🤭
Expensive but absolutely gorgeous 🤩 The craftsmanship that have gone into those wheels are out of this world. No wonder they are expensive
unreal video, such a good take over it but woof, goodbye ear drums with that between scene music!
You forgot the tyre pressure calc? 😬🙏
Can we get more reviews for this one year later?
Please do the section "Channel Reviews cycling stuff"!
couldnt you use them in an uphill TT ?
from my psychology classes the number of times Alex said it’s not advertising makes me think it is :)
Not an advert, but it’s hard for sponsored reviewers to say bad things about their sponsor’s products - easy just to fail to mention it. Alex isn’t the first and certainly won’t be the last and it’s fully understandable. Not saying they aren’t good, but you won’t hear anything really bad here.
Moto-Mags for the masses....how long before the Yoeleo or Winspace versions show up?
I'm only here for Chanel's reviews!
Hang on a second... Are you using osymetric chainrings?
Great video. Does anyone know if these are as or more aero then the black inc forty five wheels and are they as comfortable? Thx
Yea but you don't have to pay a specialist to Lace up your spokes so the cost should be closer to the 60 mm set surely ???
They look awesome
Sadly I'm nudging the max rider weight limit on these, a good incentive to get out riding and drop the kgs :)
hey alex thoughts about the maxxis high road sl are they better or the same as the gp5000s?
What are the Maxxis tubeless tyres called......any good?
And when the wind is anything other than straight?
Can the hub or the bearings be exchanged?
Hub no, bearings yes
Cmon Chanel, it'll be excellent
How much saddle to bar drop do you have?
more Chanel for sure
Have you got a comb
we could all push our equipment to the limit if we had an unlimited cache of fancy wheels.
Yup don’t know what you talking about mate, we ain’t got no 5 spokes. 😁
You could say you lost them, and send them my way LOL
Is it legal to use in time trials?
Skyway tuff mags
Some bugger gave u the thumbs down Alex.. guess they got out of bed the wrong way. Send'em a hug & kiss so the feel better about themselves. ❤'re ur wife's review of road bike a while back. Cheers
Osymetrics?
Does this wheelset support SH 12 speeds?
YES
How do you straighten them if they go out of true?
You have to sit on them overnight.
They attach lead strips like in car and motorbike rims
If they go out if true you'd probably have a story to tell
Long way from GP4's progress??
Code doesn't work anymore. :(
Sorry, it's a very old video/review now
The whole UCI regulations thing is such a bummer for the average consumer. Who, let's face it will probably never compete in a sanctioned event. I always wonder what our bikes would look and ride like if engineers had no constraints placed on their designs.

This appears to be the ONLY video on youtube about these wheels. They must be crap wheels if no one else is bothered to make a review on them.
“What I dodo is push”
It's been a year...would you sell those to me please? I am serious, please let me know.....
If I win the giveaway , I should buy a tt bike. Oh.. wait, there's no giveaway.
There're cheapo variants of these, i reckon they've used the same mold with better material..
I'll see your reckon, and raise you a nah.
Chanel could review a sheet of white paper, your view count would still increase
Hahaha deriving the price from effort, instead of designing it to market prize 🤣
Over 3k EUR for a wheel I cannot race on. Nahhhh. Get UCI to release it and we can talk again.
its costs 100 $ to produce.
Your baby proves that carbon fiber lust is genetic.
too bad about the disk brakes
1380gr for 3000 pounds? LOL
Lol
Go Chanel
This is some low ass video and audio quality for 2021
And comes with shitty bearings :p
Light weight with a disc brake, tsk, tsk.
