Hey Everyone
As above, I bought a Pro 4 Rays carbon clincher 4spoke front wheel with braking surface in November last year brand new.
After fitting it to my bike I wasnt 100% sure it suited the frame (cinelli Vigorelli) but continued with it for a couple of weeks.
I then managed to mount a curb at speed and cracked one of the spokes. After speaking to 53-12 in Colchester they recommended I send it to HQ Fibre Products in Norfolk as they are the only people locally who have repaired carbon frames, wheels, forks to an excellent standard.
The wheel has now been repaired runs absolutley true with no impact to the rim just with the repaired section on the lower part of one of the spokes which is to a very impressive standard with new carbon fibre being re-weaved into the original section.
The repair was £110 and the wheel cost £450 (RRP was £900).
Comes with Pro wheel bag and shimano ultegra skewer. Obviously repair to one side the rest of the wheel is absolutely perfect and probably has covered less than 100 miles.
