• HUNT RACE AERO WIDE WHEELSET here? Opinions? Do you know a similar or better wheel set (for price and rim size)?

  • Considering these too now, they look like pretty good bang for your buck.

    Though I'm also thinking of building my own wheels again. Kinlin XR200 rims on Hope RS4 hubs would make for a really nice set of wheels. Getting hold of some XR200s seems tricky though, & a Google suggests just buying a complete set of wheels for only another hundred more than just the rims. Anyone know if these are any good?

  • I built @Cycliste some lightweight wheels using Bitex RAF10/RAR12 hubs, CX-Rays and XR200 rims, 28R24F. They are indeed light at 1340g, and seem to have held up well so far. I had to replace the rear rim, but that was due to @Cycliste crashing and the rear wheel being run over by another rather large rider. They're very narrow rims though, and not in any way aero, so unless weight is the overriding consideration I'd say there are better choices out there.
