Hi Andy,
A quick note of thanks for your
wise advice and wheelbuilding skills. After 15 hours of varying
rides I am a believer! The Aero 30 Wheelset is an impressive
all round performer They are stiff during out of the
saddle sprints and climbs, are relatively aero and
lightweight, deliver immediate engagement and are well
engineered with oversize bearings, Sapin spokes etc, etc,
etc. They have a habit of attracting positive comments from
other riders to whom I am happy to pass your contact details.
Congrats on a great wheelset.
Regards, Les Tokolyi
Hi Andy,
Well the Aero
30 wheelset is going very nicely after a month of use, I
have used
these for a mix of racing & training rides since the start of
december. These wheel have given me some
extra confidence on the bike and have been very reliable. They
are stiffer, lighter and go much faster than anything else
I've ridden.
I'm
also really happy with the quality of the hubs
and freewheel body as this has given me the most
problems in the past.
These wheels
definitely get the thumbs up from me.
I do however have a few warning for your prospective
buyers.
-
These wheels
are very impressive at high speed and feel amazing
through corners
-
They make racing
easier
-
They really
transform my bike when I swap them back and forth with my m****
training wheelset
-
You will want to ride these
wheels all the time
-
I try not to
use them on training rides as I feel like I'm cheating myself as
they are so effortless to ride
-
These wheels look
good
Thanks for
taking the time to source good quality parts at a reasonable
$$$,
Cheers,
Steve
I just finished another race using the T50 Carbon wheelset and
just wanted
to let you know how happy I am with them. I'm finding the T50s are
my
favorite wheelset for most courses and my Zipp disc is getting left
at home
more and more.
The first thing I noticed with them is how light and particularly
how stiff
they are so accelerating out of the turns has been fantastic. But
its when
I'm up to speed that they really put a smile on my face, they
really hum
along (Really impressed with the hubs and good choice in
spokes).
It's great to feel so confident in the strength of the wheels and
I'm pretty
happy with the way they look too. I've been recommending them to
anyone
who's after a new set of carbon wheels. There isn't another
wheelset
matching them for price and performance, you should sell heaps of
them.
As always your help and advice (and now your wheels) are making me
faster on
the bike thank you.
