stay clear of Fulcrum Racing Sport wheels
How good should they be for £78? That's cheaper than tyres :-) I don't suppose they gave much thought to making them easy to service at home when OEMs asked for a Fulcrum branded wheelset to put on OTP bikes for <$50

The exact set is these

Just a note to stay clear of Fulcrum Racing Sport wheels. Got a set on a Planet X bike.
360 miles later the freehub has completely jammed up. Stripped them down last night (what a ball ache) to find I need a 12mm allen key to remove the freehub body (after you have stripped the rest of the hub).
Fortunately they were only going to be on it short term while I got something else built (which now needs to happen asap), what a load of shit. Worst design ever.
