You summation is correct; I registered on the forum to post a reply about the Tokyowheels because I felt it important to do so. I also posted some data on my youtube channel if you want to see data. To date my feelings are very positive and as I stated in a previous post if I experience anything I perceive as a problem I will first work with their customer service for a resolution and I will also post my opinion. Actually, I returned my 1st set of wheels for what I felt was a slight problem; my account was credited but then I kept thinking about it and decided to give it another go. I’m happy enough.
I have no idea if the data is “The Good, Bad, and Ugly” so I asked others for their input but received no responses. I actually just ordered another wheelset from Tokyowheel; these will be for my cyclocross bike so not sure if anyone on Slowtwitch will want to read about them. Subjective is what it is so I’ll do what I can to provide objective data for my 2nd set once they arrive. I ordered the Elite tubular 38mm with the Tokyowheel (house brand) hub and Sapim CX-ray spokes. My 1st order was the 50 mm Epic with DT Swiss 240 hubs and Sapim CX-ray spokes. These wheels have now become my go to training wheelset.
I’ve not ridden sew-ups on a CX bike before so I’m excited to give them a go.I’ll most likely post subjective and objective review on Cyclocross magazine forum and my youtube channel.
