Review on 🚴 Unleash Your Cycling Potential with SUPERTEAM U Shape Bike Wheel Clincher 700C Carbon Wheelset - 38/50/60/88 UD Matte, 25 Width by Kevin Witherspoon

Revainrating 3 out of 5

They exceeded my expectations, 38mm

I wanted a set of 1500g tubeless carbon wheels and I found them. The wheelset description doesn't say they are tubeless compatible but I converted them anyway so I bought 25mm tubeless tape, 60mm valve, tire sealant and mounted some 25mm gp5000 TL tires. I've had the install for over a month and haven't had any problems. The wheels lift well on inclines of 7-15%, they roll fast and maintain their speed on level ground. Every Wednesday night I ride in a group at a fast pace averaging 24+ mph on a 27-32 mph course and the wheels just roll fast. Most of my rides are flat, but I do 8-15% hilly climbs every once in a while, so I haven't decided whether to ride the 50mm or 38mm. These 38mm reels are so fast that I don't think the 50mm reels can roll much faster, maybe 60mm where you can feel a difference at 43+ km/h, but it gets about 300 g heavier, which is approximately 3/4 lb. 38mm for climbing and fast group runs and somewhere in between 60mm for individual time trials.

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Unreliable
