These wheels are certainly a superb buy, the rear wheel is RRP £99.95 and the front wheel RRP £79.95 make these a good contender in the disc brake upgrade market - they might be slightly dearer than the Mavic Crossride alternatives, but they do appear in both writing and close inspection to be of a much better quality. Now lets get things straight before we start with the review - these are great enduro strength budget wheels, somewhere between budget level and pro standard, but these wheels suffer a little weight wise. These wheels are ideal for off the shelf bikes that are due a new set of wheels (as these will be lighter then the OEM ones) or these would be ideal if you get through regular sets of wheels or your looking for your first set of wheels for a disc upgrade.

I have been running these wheels for two years now and I couldn't really ask much more of them. I have needed one set of bearings in the rear hub, but after a good few hundred miles and two years of riding you cant really quibble at needing only a few bearings. The wheels still run really true and the hubs are spinning fine. After two years there are no broken spokes or dented rims. One problem on the tech side as with several modern enduro rims is a tyre change is difficult - even with folding tyres and a warm spacious workshop and some decent tyre levers these can be a pain to change tyres on. But we cant really hold that against them, these are superb wheels, a great price, and a fantastic option over the Mavic equivalents.
