HEDArdennes Plus SL Clincher Wheelset(Return to Product Page)

Let's get the one little negative out the way. The front wheel came with the bearings so loose it actually rattled once on the bike. A quick adjustment by my LBS cleared this up.

The Good My 32mm tires measure 31.4 in width on my Mavic Ksyriums. On the Ardennes the same tire went to 33.4. Bearings are very smooth and my LBS said it almost felt like a mechanical assist when he test rode them - haha. The WB sale price on these was a deal clincher. Two of my friends have the LT and love them. Another buddy has this SL and likes them. These are becoming sort of the standard wheelset in my group of rider friends for our gravel or all-around road bikes.
