Got my Chinese carbon wheels. Put them through 200K hills sufferfest.
38mm. Light and fast. Love them.
One suggestion: Make sure there's no loose spoke.
Nipples can be loose through shipping.

There's something nagging at me, wishing I would have gone with a more "name brand" manufacturer. Oh well. They look sweet and they're light!

Can only happen if it's a really bad build.

It seems like the "reputable" brands are getting more expensive, ie. light bicycle, farsports, etc.

As they should be. Some vendors basically have no functional warranty. They require you to pay shipping both ways if there is a problem, regardless of the problem. The good ones will replace with photo evidence if that works.

Carbon-cycles on ebay is another good one.
