Just a heads up gents, my bike was stolen off my bike rack after the PPA race (in CT) this weekend 

 

loved the project building it up and the bike, completely customized - so if anyone sees it ram the dude off.

 

would love to know where these f......rs take the bikes as its going to be very hard to ride such a customized bike in public

Ag no man!!!!

 

So sorry to hear this! I remembered when you build this up... i really liked every part and now the F#@$#s just takes it!

 

Hope you get it back and found the oke that took it !

I'm looking to but a 50mm wheelset for my new bike and doing a research on the Chinese sellers I ended up talking to Yoeleo. They seem very professional and ready to help,asked them what are their best wheels and they suggested me to get this one

It's a new product and they don't have many reviews. What do you think about it?should I got with the normal hub they provide or the DT Swiss 240s ($230) ? is it worth to spend $1000 for it?

Take a look at Planet X wheels on special GPB300 http://www.planetx.co.uk/i/q/WPPX5050/planet-x-50-50-carbon-wheelset

 

Whilst there maybe an issue of shipping to SA, speak to Ryanpmb here on the hub as he is acting as a local agent for PlanetX/On One

 

Edit, i see you looking for clinchers and not tubbies.

I know yoeleo bike very well... when i did research on chinese frames and wheels i though their wheels were the very best!

 

I had no reason to doubt them and the reviews are solid! I havent bought from them yet but i wont think twice.

 

If you do buy from then please please post your reviews here...i would love to know! The blueish decals on them looks soooo hot!  :thumbup:

Ok I believe I'll get them.

 

Would you go with the new one or the older model with a lot of reviews?

 

Really want the bora but they are too expensive and the only second hand I can find are tubbies

Why not look at some local options as well

 

Dark horse makes some beautiful wheels and they are Cape Town based for after sales support.

If Darkhorse answered their mails I would have gotten a set of wheels from them. Could be that they had a problem with their internet or it just slipped through the interwebs.

That was one of my options but then seeing that I'm leaving soon makes more sense for me to get the Chinese one. But if the quality of dark horse is better that I don't know
