Farsports Ventoux C4 EVO Wheels - 1372g

[patliean1]

These wheels are quite lightweight. My Dengfu R12 (size 54) now weighs only 7.4kg without bottle cages, pedals, or GPS mount. Are they expensive? Yes. Do they perform well for the money? Absolutely. Are they overkill for a $600 USD Dengfu frameset? Probably only if you aren't planning to use these wheels for their ultimate intended purpose.

Now that's a properly high end wheelset

I'm guessing you went with the C4 EVO over the S4 EVO because of the Sapim spokes? at deeper depths, I think I'd go with the UFO6 rather than a C6 EVO if carbon spokes are out of the equation

I chose these for the ease of serviceability in the future should I need to replace a spoke or service the hubs. And since I already have a set of deep 65mm Winspace Hyper wheels, I wanted to try something else for the sake of performance.

The wheelset is all good and fine, but what's with the creepy doll in the background?

Ah!  From the video it looked like one of those old timey dolls that get possessed.
We’ve got a little female in our house.  She has Baby Alive. Also the creative source of the unicorn-theme of my bike. Lol

All-new 2023 Ventoux line just dropped. No more rim brakes. No more C4, C6, S4 & S6 depths for standard Ventoux non-EVO.





'23 EVO4 (1230g) is a massive improvement over the '21 Ventoux S4 EVO (1295g) and places Farsports on even footing with the Mavic Cosmic Ultimate UST Disc (1225g) and Lightweight Obermayer EVO Schwarz ED (1230g).

Is that 30 external for the rear and 26 for the front?

It seems like everyone is releasing new wheels this season

30 external for the front and 26 for the rear. EVO is still 26 front and back.
