CSC Gravel Bike Wheels
« on: March 23, 2025, 02:43:12 PM »
Hey Guys,
Has anyone had experience with CSC Ultralight all-road wheels?

I'm looking for a lightweight, budget-friendly wheelset for gravel riding with:
- Internal width: 24-25mm
- Rim height: 40-50mm

I found these on AliExpress (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005008634411225.html) and they also have an official website (https://www.carbonspeedcycle.com/).

Would appreciate any feedback on durability, build quality, weight accuracy, and overall performance.
Also interested in how their customer service has been if you've had any warranty issues.

Alternatively, would it be wiser to go with more established Chinese carbon brands like Farsports, CRW, 9Velo or NO 6. for similar specs?
Open to recommendations for other wheelsets in this category that offer good value.

Thanks!

I bought these wheels
https://a.aliexpress.com/_Ez61LX6
and after 1000km I had a problem with the rear wheel, loose spokes and the wheel was out of center if I pulled at the indicated tension.
To keep the wheel centered I had to keep the spokes at low tension but after not even a few km I had loose spokes again.
Terrible support, they don't want to acknowledge that it's a structural problem.
Stay away from them and look elsewhere

Bought the same wheels, haven't ridden them, probably next week will.
First impression is good, no problem mounting the tyres either.

Bought them after a couple of posts with positive feedback on a Dutch cycling forum.

Although there is a difference in reviews between the wheels with their own CSCT31 hub and the D272 hubs. The latter is giving better reviews and less issues than the first.
