warick_wrx Posted May 25, 2017 Posted May 25, 2017 Hi Hubbers I am in the market for new wheels Full Carbon, Clincher ,Looking at 50mm Profile, Around the R20k mark, Preferably Ceramic Bearings What should I consider ?
Furbz Posted May 25, 2017 Posted May 25, 2017 or a good set of secondhand wheels. i'm tempted in selling my Roval CLX60's for R18k (i have access to ax lightness wheels)
Wannabe Posted May 25, 2017 Posted May 25, 2017 PM Sent I tested the 38/50mm combo of this wheels for two weeks.Mightily impressed with quality of wheel, quality of ride, and looks is also spot on. Not too flashy, not too understated.
Fast-er Posted May 25, 2017 Posted May 25, 2017 I know there is many wheelsets you can get at that price, But i can with out a doubt say look at Darkhourse wheels, the SLF50 is great They are super fast and very Aero

Jackson123 Posted May 25, 2017 Posted May 25, 2017 My opinion....Token. Have tried Reynolds, DarkHorse and Pro-Lite....but Token is by far the best rolling set I have ever owned.
Jurgens Smit Posted May 25, 2017 Posted May 25, 2017 Have a look at american classic carbon 40, they should come in at 20k. Been racing on them for 2years now and they are ????????
Veebee Posted May 25, 2017 Posted May 25, 2017 The tokens are a good option - http://www.tokencycling.co.za/wheels/road-tt/prime-c50p.htmlGod aftersales support from them aswell.
Furbz Posted May 25, 2017 Posted May 25, 2017 Dont go darkhorse. i had a set, had both front and back rims fall apart in under a year - warranty replaced.but also constant trueing. i have 3x friends who all experienced the same issue as me.they are light and cheap. but not strong. the old saying holds true: LIGHT, CHEAP, STRONG, pick any two
