Review on ๐Ÿšด SUPERTEAM 700C Carbon Fiber Road Bike Wheelset - 50mm Matte Clincher Wheels with 23mm Width by Robert Long

Revainrating 5 out of 5

GREAT WHEELS, good for cycling

Great carbon wheels for the price, I have to admit I was a little apprehensive at first but after reading the reviews of how good these wheels are, i did a dive and i'm glad i did, saved me a lot of money on the super tall wheels, ok for the wheels, i only had them for a short time and i noticed a difference on the first day, the Bike is of course lighter, but the wheels really start to work for you when you reach speeds of up to 32 km/h. It's just as easy with my stock bike, I mounted the wheels on my matte black emonda sl6 rail, the bike looks feminine as you would expect, has only done 600+ miles and runs really well, they are so true, how you can get it They are packaged fairly well considering how thick the beau x they come in is about 7 inches wide but placed so they are fairly well protected. Unfortunately my bike got lost in transit and already canceled the order, Revain, as usual, refunded me very quickly, but they showed up again about a month later. I had to drive to have them shipped to another USPS location but after all that has been said and done I am very happy with the wheels and would recommend them to anyone looking to upgrade I paid for them again, the wheel comes with everything you need, type and back skewers, carbon spacers and valve extenders. Let me point out these extenders for those like me who didn't know the wheels were too wide for a regular As for the pipe valve, I have 60mm valves now and even they were too small for my pump to fit one to make a tight seal, valve extensions came in, you basically screw them onto your valve, now the valve should be open and ready for air before you screw in the extension cord. When I tried that, disaster, I couldn't seal tightly. I was having trouble pumping air, a quick fix for this and the only solution in my book is relatively simple, just wrap it with teflon/tubing tape, about 5 inches will do, you just wrap the top part where the extension bolts on , be careful not to wrap the valve head, you will have to screw it back on, I know some riders like to keep the extensions on all the time, I took mine off and keep it with me when riding you really only need one Extension once you do it, no problem. One more thing when you pump air you will feel like it is very hard to pump it it's only temporary what happens is the valve extension doesn't have that little pin that you see in all pumps , the pin is for depressing the air valve, you will also see a higher pressure on your pump momentarily but that is only when the air is pushing the valve down, it settles almost immediately and you get the correct tire pressure straight away I hope this info will help someone, buy rims, you won't regret it one more tip, wrap teflon tape on the replacement tube you need if you get a flat tire who doesn't want to deal with tape and extensions just buy 80mm tube and the problem is solved the valve is now long enough to use a normal pump

Pros
  • Warranty: 1 year with normal use
