Superteam Carbon Fiber Road Bike Wheels 700C Clincher Wheelset 50mm Matte 23 Width

UPDATE . . . .SEPTEMBER 2022 - So far, I am EXTREMELY PLEASED WITH THESE WHEELS. THEY HAVE PERFORMED ABOVE EXPECTATIONS. I HAVE CYCLED ABOUT 500 miles this summer and I have NO COMPLAINTS. I HAVEN"T HAD ANY ISSUES WITH THE PADS (I opted and paid for better pads when I had them installed). Assuming they're still being manufactured the same way, I wouldn't hesitate to buy these again.After reading several reviews and mentally going back and forth for weeks, I finally pulled the trigger on these wheels (September, 2020). Glad I did! I am extremely happy with my purchase. Here's my experience:Due to the madness in the shipping industry because of the pandemic, it took almost 3 months for my wheels to arrive. I knew they were coming from overseas so the lengthy wait was expected anyway.Upon arrival, I took them to my bike guy and was met with a questionable stare. He stated "you know these are from China, right?". I informed him that I read numerous reviews and was willing to try them out. Against his wishes, he installed the wheels. They instantly made my bike look great and my aura as a cyclist skyrocketed. The included hub(s) sound very clear and serve as a "heads up" as you approach others from behind.FTR, I am a VERY BASIC rider. I ride an average of 60 miles a week. I now have over 1000 miles on these wheels and they have performed BEYOND THE CALL OF DUTY. Believe me when I say that. I am 105 kg (230 lbs) and these wheels have held firm. The wheels are over a year old but you can barely notice the wear lines around the area where the brake pads meet the wheel. I am very satisfied with these superteam wheels and I WOULD NOT HESITATE to buy them again.If you're on the fence, don't be. You'll definitely get your money's worth (assuming manufacturer has maintained same level of quality and assembly).On a final note, if you're the type of cyclist that likes to look "cool" and having top tier brands is an absolute must for you, then you'll probably skip these. For guys like me, it's more than enough and an excellent bang for your buck item.

If you are considering these wheels, but are unsure if they are really for you, I understand how you feel. If you also agonize between these wheels and something more expensive (e.g., Zipp), I completely understand you because only two weeks ago I was agonizing the same way. Without further due a few points of my 2-week and 300-mile-long experience.Out of the boxThe wheels present well; sharp, modern, and true. A few spokes extra (perhaps with a reason), a manual, valve extension, a set of brake pads, and that is it. If you are still unsure if you have made a right choice, please do not read the manual. The lack of quality of good English in the manual could undermine your trust in the wheels. The wheel tape is already in place and you do not have to do anything about it.Riding impressionsNot bad at all. The wheels are relatively fast and comfortable. Started with about 100 psi; a nice and smooth ride. Cross winds will put pressure on the wheels due to their wider/deeper profile, but nothing extra-ordinary. Strongly recommend buying 80-mm long valves and forget about using the extenders provided with the product.The soundsRegular pedaling sound is on a louder side, but not too loud and you will get used of it rather quickly. The coasting sound is also on a louder side, but rather pleasant at the same time. The braking noise - if you like the sound of the dentist drill, you will love this sound too.BrakingMy only experience has been under the dry weather. Not great with the pads that came with the wheels, but doable. Getting new, apparently better, brake pads for carbon wheels. Riding under wet conditions is an enigma for me at this point.LongevityThe first three hundred miles are just a drop in a bucket and insufficient to make any predictions in terms of the longevity. Time will tell.OverallIf you are having low quality wheels, these wheels will be a quick, substantial, and inexpensive upgrade. If you are setting your eyes on a more expensive carbon, keep looking though this could be a temporary set to meet your immediate needs. If the money is tight, these wheels are great.
