Exceeded Expectations in Every Way--Responsive Communication--A REAL 1000 Day Wty; UPDATE 12-31-23
4th Update (12-31-2023) Another 1,500 miles , another update. All is good. Were I not superstitious I'd sell my truing stand. Both wheels are still true in every direction. I've added a few more scratches to the rims which annoys me -- my responsibility of course -- but everything else about the wheels is as you'd want: trouble free. 32 months of ownership. Solidly 5 stars.3rd UPDATE (10-4-22) 7,000 miles total and the wheels are rock solid. Even after a crash while turning with a flat front tire (my fault) which knocked me out yet not the wheel, the spoke tension and trueness are holding. If we're giving up something with this $400 carbon wheelset (weight?) compared with known brands I have yet to find it. Noisy hub if I have to come up with a negative. NBD. Amazing value and quality.2nd UPDATE (12-30-21) I've put on another 1500 miles after the last update bringing the total mileage on the wheels to 3,500. They continue to be rock solid. They are true and holding spoke tension. My previous comments and recommendation have been reinforced. Quality for price is outstanding.UPDATE (10-7-21) after 4 months and over 2000 miles: Still true with consistent spoke tension. An unexpected bonus is that the tubeless tires hold their seal without air when I'm refreshing sealant. I can use a floor pump to reinflate. Reflects the quality of the wheel build. Solid all around and a great value. Very pleased with my experience (The front wheel is a bit scratched from carelessly putting in my truck bed. Obviously, that's on me! )ORIGINAL REVIEW: Except for two issues which were a nuisance but not worthy of one less star -- I'll discuss them later -- I'm very pleased with these, my first set of carbon wheels.I'm an experienced cyclist and I do all my wrenching. Can I give you an opinion on the relative merits of this wheelset compared with others made of carbon? Of course not, but I did considerable research in general, and specifically on ELITE, a company I was unfamiliar with, I took a chance on it, and after 470 miles I'm completely satisfied. I hope to add to this review at the end of the year after 2500 more miles.I purchased the 50mm X 27 MM tubeless set and installed 700X25 Continental 5000TL (tubeless) tires (despite the colossal pain with mounting them.) . I wanted wider rims to get the proper aero effect (Look-up 105 rule), which were not easy to find at this price level. I ride in Tucson AZ on roads that vary in surface quality and I was concerned with harshness from the new wheels Coming from custom-made tubeless metal wheels which were very comfortable on rough surfaces I was apprehensive. To my pleasant surprise, these are even better -- something I did not expect. No harshness and they roll beautifully.When the wheels arrived I checked the true and spoke tension. Absolutely spot-on. After the 470 miles they're still true, if just a wee-bit off on lateral, and spoke tension is holding. Nice.Undoubtedly it's partially a placebo effect, but my metrics are up over the three weeks I've been riding with them. Road feedback is great and they are stable at any speed. Over 18-20MPH I could feel the aero effect.The 3k brake track is as advertised -- with carbon-specific pads the brake feel and action is very good. Carbon wheels with rim brakes are known to have a delay in braking versus metal rims. I found that to be minimal.One thing I don't like is the noisy hub. I came from an Ultegra freehub which was very quiet. I expected more noise. and. alas, I got it. It's a personal thing and not a big deal. I'm already adjusting to it. It's a form. not a functional thing.Some customization is possible. I asked for red spoke nipples, 3K gloss finish and black logos -- no problem.Inside the rim of one wheel was a lump of dried resin which should have been removed before leaving the factory. I was concerned my tubeless tires would not seat correctly. ELITE owned the issue immediately and gave a remedy that it admitted I should not have had to employ. I mounted the tires without sanding the bump and the tires seated fine. A bonus, is that both wheels with sealant are holding pressure longer than with my previous wheels.The company's estimate of one month to get to you is very optimistic -- at least in my case -- and I advise patience when a week or two could go by without an update particularly if it uses a certain carrier. Think Singapore.Could I have bought lighter wheels made of better carbon, better spokes and a ceramic hub housed in carbon which was less noisy? Of course, but not at this price. It sells widely in China (you can probably guess where) and is relatively new to Amazon. It's a big company and I'd reckon an OEM manufacturer as well.I confirmed in writing that its 1000 day warranty does NOT require you to send a wheel back IF it is covered. In my experience that's where disreputable Asian sellers earn their bad reps.This has to be one of the best values for carbon wheels extant today. I'm a very happy customer.

As described, fast delivery!
Love how it looks with the black decal. The wheels are well trued, gives you that li’l advantage than using your stock wheelset.

So far, so good!
Running 28mm tires on my rim brake Motobecane Immortal Spirit with 700c Weinmann aluminum rims I have barely 2–3mm of clearance. Despite Conti Gatorskins and tire liners I was getting constant flats, so decided to try tubeless and upgrade at same time. I bought these as "Used-Very Good" for my first try of carbon wheels, not wanting to splash out $500–1000 if I didn't care for them or if they didn't fit my already very tight wheel spacing. Tried to give my LBS some work to set the wheel up tubeless, but they declined! So i gave it a shot myself.The wheels arrived in immaculate condition, perfectly true, albeit completely stripped down—as expected for this price. Included rim tape was barely enough for two total wraps, which should have been enough, was difficult to apply, and it did not work for me. It had zero stretch and seemed more like acetate. I ended up taking it off and buying Stan's which went on perfectly and worked first time. Bought valves and installed no problem. Brand new Schwalbe Pro Ones TLE were VERY difficult to get on the rims—after getting the front on with hands only I had blisters and sore thumbs, and had to resort to the tire hand tool for the rear, which made it much easier. Dry fit the tires okay, let them sit for a day to check any leakage—all good. Added sealant, reinflated, no leaks anywhere.I've ridden maybe 150 miles so far and they feel fantastic. They seem faster, much lighter and far less bumps and vibration. As noted elsewhere, the rear hub is LOUD, if that bothers you, and at 50mm deep, I do feel crosswinds a bit more, but manageable.All in all I am so far very happy, even though the conversion ($500 or so, with wheels, tires, valves, sealant) was at my admittedly very tight budget limit.
