Superteam Carbon Fiber Road Bike Wheels 700C Clincher Wheelset 50mm Matte 23 Width

I have a 2010 Trek 2.3. I had upgraded it over the years but it was looking 'old' with the 23c tires, natural aluminum colored rims, and the bundle of cables hanging off the front of the handlebars.I bought these to do one thing only, update the look of my bike. It definitely did that. They look absolutely fantastic and are worth every penny even before I talk about performance.I started with upgraded Mavic Aksium rims with cheap 23c training tires, which are a cheap update but were very lightweight and functioned very well. I bought these rims and added cheap 28c training tires. I did the same 36 miles route 2 days in a row, one with the old rims and one with the new. I also tried to control my heart rate so I wouldn't subconsciously 'try harder' one day over the next. Very unscientific and subjective results but long story short I finished the route with the new rims 8 minutes faster of the 36 miles.The results indicated I was able to ride faster with less effort. I actually think this is due to what you would not expect. Between the two wheelsets, I think the old wheels with smaller tires and purposely lightweight tubes are lighter than my new wheel/tire/tube combo. I felt like I was descending faster and once I got up to speed, I could carry that speed longer up the next hill before having to change gears.Maybe my theory is bad, but the wheels made a positive difference after one longer ride.One tip, when I switched over to the new rims, I took the 10 speed cassette off the old wheels and use it on the new. When I moved it I did not move over the spacer that allows the 10 speed cassette to be used on the 11 speed freehub. That was a mistake. The spacer between the two wheelsets were not the same size causing the new chain to make a strange noise when pedaling. I could have adjusted the rear derailleur to fix this, but I choose to just switch over the spacer from the old wheel to the new wheel and that fixed it. Just FYI.UPDATE:Please take the time to read some of the 1-star reviews and understand the limitations of this wheelset. Your safety very much depends on it. I live in the rolling hills (not mountains) of the Midwest. These wheels work wonderfully here with no issues at all. I still intend to put many many miles on them. If you ride in the mountains, or intend to do so with this wheelset, DO NOT BUY THESE RIMS. Long, mountainous descents with brakes applied can cause the bead to overheat and bulge or even shatter.

I have been an avid cyclist for 9 years, and I recently had the pleasure of upgrading to the Superteam carbon fiber bike wheels. Let me tell you, these wheels have been an absolute game-changer for my riding experience over the past 10 months! I was turned onto these by a guy riding cyclocross on these with 32mm tires at a MTB park, he said he's been riding them for years and haven't needed to true them.Right from the moment I installed them on my bike, I noticed an immediate difference. The first thing that struck me was how incredibly lightweight they are. The carbon fiber construction makes a world of difference in reducing rotational weight, allowing me to accelerate with ease and climb the small hills of Florida effortlessly. It feels like I have a jet engine on my bike!Moreover, the aerodynamic design of these wheels has significantly improved my overall speed. I've noticed that I can maintain higher velocities without expending as much energy, making long rides much more enjoyable and less exhausting. The reduced wind resistance has been a blessing during those intense sprints, giving me the confidence to push my limits.Another remarkable aspect of the Superteam carbon fiber wheels is their stiffness and responsiveness. Cornering feels stable, and the wheels track flawlessly, even on rough roads. The enhanced power transfer ensures that every ounce of energy I put into pedaling is utilized efficiently, resulting in a noticeable boost in performance.Let's not forget about the durability of these wheels. Despite enduring various challenging terrains and occasional bumps, they have shown no signs of wear or compromise. It's evident that Superteam has invested in quality materials and craftsmanship to create a product that withstands the test of time.The stylish appearance of these wheels also deserves a mention. They have garnered numerous compliments during group rides, and it's always satisfying to know that my bike looks as good as it performs.In conclusion, the Superteam carbon fiber bike wheels have transformed my cycling experience for the better. The combination of lightweight design, improved aerodynamics, and excellent durability make these wheels worth every penny. If you're a serious cyclist looking to take your rides to the next level, I highly recommend giving these wheels a try. You won't be disappointed! Happy cycling! 🚴‍♂️💨
