don't buy anything from velobuild.
you can find the same thing elsewhere
and you won't get banned from their website the moment you have an issue requiring warranty.

Hi Swanbird,

Thank you for the warning!
Can you reference me to the "elsewhere"? I"m looking for a good deal with some kind of warranty so I have some confidence on the product. :)

what wheels are you looking for ?

I'm looking for a value carbon wheel around 60mm. It doesn't have to be brand name but I don't want a wheel failure either.

what was the total out the door price
for the wheels you wanted at velobuild?
clincher or tubular ?

Have you considered Flo?

I think he said he was looking for carbon wheels. I don't think flo wheels are carbon.

Hi All,

The velo build ended up being $485 for the wheelset. There's not much data or review on those wheels so I'm paranoid about build quality.
I looked at Flo just now, they look nice! :)

tubulars or clinchers ?

for 485 shipped you should expect at least the power way r36 hub set in your wheels.
and really light spokes
for around 347 shipped you should atleast expect novatec hub set. f372- f271

i have owned 3 sets of novatec hub wheels and they work really good.
but the power way hubs weigh less and work better.

then i add a set of titanium skewers for 18 bucks

i just transferred my old tires over
-------------------
bike hub store also has wheel set deals
if all parts rim spokes hubs nipples are bought as package.
you just have to have someone build them up for you.

Our wheels have aluminum brake tracks with carbon fiber fairings. The only exception in our line up to that rule is the FLO 30 is an all aluminum fully toroidal wheel.

Take care,
