Those look really nice. The weight is also great considering the size of the rims.

ACESPRINT Official Store

I found this store, their offers look like an interesting alternative to Elite Wheels, the reviews are good. they also did not erase the watermark of the manufacturer, here is the link https://www.crazycarbon.com/

The factory's website and the information about it looks reliable, they also offer a 2-year warranty and crash replacement with a 25% discount.

Link? Or did you contact directly?

The speeder wheels was a quote from contacting Justin at Speeder. They don't list their prices on the site.

Hi all, I'm new here and thinking about getting my first carbon wheelset for my gravel bike. I'm trying to stick to a lower budget and good reliability (e.g. I'd like steel spokes rather than carbon), but also ease of tubeless setup. I saw that 9Velo GV wheels have a rim bed without holes, which seems like a great feature for tubeless.

Are any of the other brand people have discussed here offering hole-less rims, hopefully at a bit lower price? Or should I just go ahead with 9Velo GV 45 for ~800 EUR?

If reliability is the key criteria, get one of the OEMs like FarSports to build you up some wheels with Sapim CX-Ray spokes, Sapim nipples and DT Swiss 350 hubs, then pretty much any bike shop in the world has access to spares for you. I got my wheel specced like that from Farsports for $850 USD shipped to Australia (including no spoke holes). Tubeless set up was extremely easy (just put tyre on and pump up with track pump).

Well, value and weight are also important :)
I don't know much about hubs yet, but it seems DT Swiss are a bit overpriced compared to other brands like Novatec ?
