Great pair of wheels, no issues

Road riding on my new custom bike, wheels were a great price and work perfect!

Fast, tough, stay true

I love everything about these wheels except one thing. In combination with GP5000's, mounting or changing a tire is a bear.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great for training on the road

I have been a tubular snob for a very long time, but no more. These wheels ride great with 25c Conti 5000 tires at 75lbs. The bearings are over the top smooth. Here in NE Pa. rides are always 100 feet of climbing per mile. When I compete I still ride tubulars.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great Wheelset

After 2 years of use (4,000 miles) these wheels have held up very well. Stayed in true. Roll nicely. Running 75 PSI on Conti 5000's. Nice ride.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great Quality and Value

Best mid priced aluminum wheels on the market. This is my second set. The first one went 12k miles over four seasons without needing to be tried once.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great quality!

Bought these to replace the stock wheel on my Transonic road bike. They look great and are clearly lighter, resulting in increased speed. The wider rims put more of the tire surface on the road giving better traction. The shipping was same day - got them the new day.

Thank you for your feedback.

Fair Weather Wheels

I ride year around (190lbs). I was looking for a wider option to a Shimano Ultegra wheel set (which worked for years under these conditions). After 600 miles, half of which was in the rain, the rear free hub started to make a loud crackling noise. On inspection the free hub body was badly scored by my Shimano cassette. HED claims to have fixed the bearing issue. They did not fix the scoring. I was very disappointed with the wheels.

Thank you for your feedback.

Wider is Better

These wheels are great! I have been running tubeless and have about 500 miles on them so far and no flats. What a great feeling to go out for a ride and not worry about flats. These are so smooth and spin up very nice. A great light wheel set for the price, cant wait to get my cross tires on these and run these for CX.

Thank you for your feedback.
