i used many of them, R310SL 28h for gravel set, R180 for some road.
R240SL and R180SL just lately, but most of them is on that model that doesn't have model number, no logo, just ratchet 24h and weight around 290 grams. They are just normal ratchet and not to loud, best choice for most wheelsets.

So you used R180SL for a new set of MTB wheels, do you know what was the weight you got?

As far as I could see the M180 weights around 350 grams, https://es.aliexpress.com/item/1005006065318449.html and can´t see any difference from R180 version who weights the same https://es.aliexpress.com/item/1005006057668006.html.

I was just planning to use this Goldix 240EXP, 309 grams, https://es.aliexpress.com/item/1005003014289678.html.

I did some builds with GDR310 and they were reliable and if not, you could get the ratchets from DT Swiss 350, compatible with them.

What would be your recommendation to build a new XC Wheelset?

Around 400 grams, a bit heavy...

I would say that the TheOne A1 stem is the same like Kalloy Uno stem.

Then they are better than I expected, I didn´t check their factory.

So

Farsports: UCI approved
Elite Wheels (Yuan An): UCI approved
Carbon Beam wheels:
Yishunbike:
Deerobust:

I read once that Deerobust rims are made by Yishunbike, but I don´t know.

Hello!

I am looking for two new rims to mount a new wheelset for road disc and I think that Farsports are reliable rims. I didn´t test by myself but I read some good reviews.

Brands I tested:
- Yishunbike: the quality is very good but their clincher versions are too heavy (not really too but heavier than other options and a bit expensive in comparison:
- Deerobust: I have a pair of clincher 38 mm rim brake. The quality es very good, I haven´t had any issue with rims. Reasonable weight, customizable and reliable in my opinion.
- Carbonbeam Wheels: maybe the cheapest of all brands in this comparison. The only but, the weight.

Comparing Farsports Feder with the above options, I could say that they are the most expensive and the lighter option. Weight is one of the most important things for me but I want reliable/durable and good quality rims.

Do you have any other brands? Do you agree with me?

Regards

In terms of geometry are similar but not the same.

Also DT350 weights around 360
DT240 EXP weights around 310
And this hubset weights around 320, so in terms of weight they are more similar to DT 240 (internals are quite equal in 240 and 350).

About bearings, freehub are different, compatible but Goldix freehub uses 6802 bearings and DT 6902 bearings (in old ratchet). Comparing with DT 240 EXP, this are a bit better, it uses 1526 (15 x 26 x 7 mm) bearings, so bigger ball race than 6802, so we assume that they have longer life.

In terms of bearings lasting 6902 > 1526 (15 x 26 x 7 mm) > 6802... theoretically.

Just a note: Goldix front hub uses 6902 and I think that it could be enough to use 6802 in this case and this will save some grams.

DT240 EXP front hub 24 holes center lock -> 104 grams
Goldix GDR310 front hub 24 holes center lock -> 113 grams

DT240 EXP rear hub 24 holes center lock -> between 204-210
Goldix GDR310 rear hub 24 holes centerl lock -> 206 grams

I just dismantle, some more pictures:

I will compare with my DT350 hub that I have already... just to see if they are compatible like everybody says.

it could be good, DT replacements are easy to find.

I received the hubs, they look very good! Even one bearing (only one, I don´t know why) is from NTN. The others are from NRW.

My model is GDR310 so, no EXP240 version. The weight was 319, so very good, close to DT 240 in terms of weight.

Do you know any official website for this Goldix brand?
These are some pictures:

The most particular thing, from my point of view, is the red parts. The last one is like a lock ring to keep the spring in the correct position. This is missing in the DT Swiss desing. I think that these red parts are adding a bit of weight, this 10 grams of difference:
