The wheels are suprisingly unstable in windy conditions. This is due to the "Munk Moment" (which is a destabilizing force moment experienced by streamlined bodies in near axial flow). In fairness, this may be a characteristic of all "aero" wheels with a deep section; however, the instability, especially on windy days, makes these wheels almost unusable for me.The deep, aero section is supposed to reduce drag in a stable, axial flow. I don't know if it is possible to design a section with this depth that is stable in a cross wind; however, I will buy other wheels with a lower, more shallow profile.I have been an avid cyclist for many years. I ride thousands of miles a year and participate in organized (and spirited) group rides. I feel these wheels, for the conditions and speeds I ride, are unsafe for me. I will buy different wheels. Otherwise, the hubs and construction of the wheels seem very good.

The extenders I received don't work with my tubes. The user manual isn't any help with installing them. The wheels look very decent and looking forward to trying these. Unfortunately I have to wait for additional parts to use them.

Just got them delivered today and installed on my bike! Compared to the OEM wheels, they’re over 1kg lighter. They’re true and the new tires went on super easy with little cussing. Haven’t done a ride on them yet but I will update after I do!No spots and no blemishes in the carbon. The logo is pretty aggressive but it’s no worse than ZIPP or any other big brand logos. Actual weight: front wheel 707 grams, rear wheel 840 grams (total 1547 grams which is well under the listed total weight of 1715 grams!)Thus far, they’re great. If they hold up (which I cannot find any reason they won’t), they’re worth the cash. Don’t let the YouTube snobs tell you that you have to buy $1200 carbon wheels if you want quality. Only downside I found is that the seller sent 2 valve stem extenders (2 different types, one of each) and I needed a complete set. I’ll be reaching out to them for a new set. Other than that, I’ll update this review after a few rides and triathlons.**several hundred mile and one triathlon update**So far so good! The spokes settled in after a few miles with a few odd noises but nothing that any carbon wheel wouldn’t do! They ride super smooth and have stayed true. I got a lot of questions and compliments the other day after a triathlon about them and the quality as compared to wheels that are 4X as much. All in all, the quality is great for the wheel itself. I have TPU tubes in them to keep the weight down (as I am not fully committed to tubeless just yet).If you’re on the fence about these wheels, pull the trigger, they’re worth every penny and much more!

Have yet to test these out, but initial quality looks amazing considering the price. Uci approved sticker on them as well. Spins very true right out of the box. Specs say around 1700 grams for the pair but here were the specs for mine: 895 grams rear 762 grams front. 1,657g total with rim tape. Pleasantly surprised and happy that the weight is less than advertised. Overall quality looks wonderful as well. Hubs probably aren’t as water resistant as higher brands, but for the cost of these if they last a year or two you can take that savings and buy an amazing set of hubs to go with them down the road. I’ll update this review as I use them!Edit:Have been using these for over 1000 miles now with an elves aero bike build, and now having them built out for my canyon. They feel great, they make the swoosh noise at speed, the hub sounds great and is loud enough but not obnoxious (relative, I like loud). Hubs bearings etc all still spinning freely. Wheels still spin true like the day I got them. Paired with lightweight tpu tubes and turbo cotton tires, these feel awesome. Going to try and find some vinyl to make the rainbow superteam a matte black for my new bike since it’ll match better. From what I’ve heard and seen on YouTube, the internals are the same spec as DT Swiss so you can change pawl engagement etc with DT Swiss components if wanted.Further Edit: cannot have these wheels switched out to sram freehub body as the internals of the hub aren’t the same specs as shimano/sram and are only compatible with replacements from this company. Kind of a bummer. Will probably be selling these since I don’t feel like replacing the hubs when I could just buy a better brand slightly used
