I'm impressed. I'm a Campagnolo fan and, of late, I tend to buy Campagnolo wheels, but I wanted to try out a set of carbon rims and also tubeless tires. You guys made it so easy! Great discussion and great input. You obviously know your stuff. My competitive days are long gone, but I still love to ride and I do appreciate top-end components. Yes, I'd certainly buy from you all again. A++++

I took these out on my new build Synapse. Absolutely LOVE them! Incredible value and super strong wheel. Ridiculously quick spin-up and fast acceleration. My local bike shop was so impressed, he wants to find out how to be a dealer. Awesome customer service. THANK YOU!

This is the best wheels for the money: light, fantastic built, great hub selection, and astonishing breaking performance. I have tried them using 25mm and 28mm, and they feel faster using the 28mm. Will highly recommend them to my friends and anyone else that is looking for good carbon wheels without breaking the bank. And to top it all the online customer service was so helpful selecting the best model, what a great experience

Completed three rides totaling around 90 miles in the past week. Wheels have a very solid feel with no notable flex during quick bursts or short steep climbs. Wheels roll extremely well. Hubs are quiet. I ride in Atlanta which is not flat. Lots of hills, rollers, etc. These wheels have been most noticeable when transitioning from downhill to uphill - they extend momentum well. Excellent value and, so far, great wheels.

Today was a shakedown of #ffwdwheels, around the block, on uneven pavement, hard cornering and up the hill. Wow. World of difference from the old wheels. I'm in the upper third of the published weight limit(per the web research) but you can't tell because the ride was smooth and road shock tranmission low. Braking and cornering are stellar. We will see how a longer ride goes. Make yours a great day.

Here's the thing, I've been on these wheels for a bit less than a month now, but I've put in around 600 miles on them and I honestly can't imagine a more perfect set of wheels on my BMC Team Machine. But these are my first carbon wheels and it absolutely is a completely different feeling than the DT Swiss training wheels I had on it before. They are beautiful as well, and I don't care what people say, that is important. You can feel them especially when you're hammering at high speeds. They feel like they are pulling you, I don't know how to explain it any better than that.

Why Trust Verified Reviews?
Verified Reviews are real, authentic reviews collected from actual paying customers, using Shopper Approved's Verified Review Platform. When reviews are Verified by Shopper Approved, you know that you can trust them to make better buying decisions.
Unverified Reviews on the other hand, are reviews collected by Open Review platforms that allow anyone to leave a review, without any validation or proof of purchase. Unfortunately, most reviews you read online are Unverified Reviews, and can't be trusted.
As a consumer, here's how you can tell the difference:
Verified Reviews from Verified Review Platforms like Shopper Approved, have much higher review counts and higher overall Star ratings, because they attempt to collect reviews from every single paying customer.
Unverified Reviews from Open Review Platforms, tend to have much lower review counts and more negative Star ratings, because people with bad experiences are primarily those who leave reviews. This often creates a misleading, inaccurate portrayal of a companies true reputation.
So, when searching for Verified Reviews, look for the name you know you can trust. Shopper Approved.
