WheelMaster Weinmann LP18 Wheel Set - 700c, 36H, 5/6/7-Speed FW, QR, Silver

These wheels came out perfect from the box. True, and spun like butter. Sealed bearings mean I don't have to worry about gunk getting into my hubs. Double walled aluminum rims mean my ride is a lot smother and my wheels stay a bit truer through the bumps. The hubs have a nice sleek design with a nice polish to them. The rims are classy alloy silver, and 36 spokes mean the wheel is pretty durable. I have only put about 100 miles so far, but I look forward to riding my old bike again and again. I work at a bike shop, and the owner was shocked and stated that even he couldn't get a wheelset like that at this price point. These make a good replacement set for worn out original wheels, and they add a little piece of mind with their quality hand built construction.

Ordered a wheel set for a classic rebuild. Front wheel was okay. Both wheels only needed minor truing and sealed bearings were smooth. However, the rear wheel locknuts had been mangled by pliers and the rear wheel valve hole was over-drilled even larger than car tire Schrader size when it was supposed to be small diameter Presta size. I had to fit a modified ferrule to prevent a potential valve hole flat/blowout. Might have been a resold returned item, but to avoid the hassle of returning a bulky item, I made it my spare backup wheel. Very, very disappointing!

You should read the exchange in the Q&A between me and Charles B. Guy. The rear wheel seems fine, but we both experienced the same flawed front hub. The cartridge bearings literally slide back and forth in the hub. During acceleration or a hill climb, you hear a deep "clunk" and--at least with my wheelset--the front rim/tire actually shifts 1 mm back and forth. Scary stuff. 3 stars because no issues with the rear wheel. Front wheel is likely safe enough, even with the flaw....maybe.

Really good wheels. They could use a little alignment, but I am not bothering. I used these to covert an old frame with 27 inch wheels to 700c. They have been fantastic. Very strong. I am using 25 mm width tires with no issues.Just dropped from 5 start to 1 star. The front bearings loosened up in the hub and I can't find a way to repair them. Another buyer had the same problem right out of the box. The Origin 8 front hub is probably machined wrong. If you buy them, you may like them for while, then they will go to hell on you.Edit after a few years:I was really unhappy with these. But I finally figured out how to fix them after they got some slop in the bearings fitment. I took an old cereal box and made super thin washers. and placed them under the sealed bearings. This was enough to tighten them up. No more slop. Its been a long time, no more problems.Edit 10/14/19. Cereal box fix still working great. Ride this bike all the time. Many miles, no issues. Considering another set for another bike.

Cheap bike wheels, don't think that these are durable double walls that can support a total of 180lbs on the rear.

The wheels came straight and tru.They look great and ride super nice.The skewer levers are a little too big but work well just look funny.Im not sure of the spokes .I had assumed they were to be stainless steel.They look fine but are magnetic and most stainless steels are not.I went back to the ad on ebay which stated DT 2.0 spokes.This doesnt neccessarily mean stainless steel spokes.Oh well thats why the low price I guess.The wheels are a really good buy though and roll very well.

I had a crack on the front wheel of my old Nishiki road bike. I didn't want to replace just the one wheel because they are bronze in color (If I am going to ride an old antique at least I want the wheels to match!). This set is nice quality and fit the bike perfectly. I like that the spokes are stainless steel. The old wheels had plated steel spokes and they were covered with rust spots and looked pretty bad. I am happy with the purchase and expect them to out live the bike. These are double wall construction and should be stronger than the originals that are single wall, and they lasted 25 to 30 years!!

Best wheel set available at this price point. The sealed hubs are very low friction, extremely smooth, and the rims are true. Reminder: this is for use with freewheels, not cassettes. It's an excellent replacement wheel set for 1960's-70's-80's era 10 speeds/road bikes, and allows your bike to be fitted with the latest 200 gram folding kevlar clinchers, if that's what you want. Although the rear wheel will accommodate a 7 speed freewheel, your older bike frame or rear dropouts may not be so accommodating, even with an extra washer installed on each side of the axle. Choose carefully.
