Re: Current Wheelset Offerings for Climbing
I sent an email to Leon, hopefully they can make it happen. Not sure if they carry the 711/712s, but I asked.

For my new gravel wheels I went with RD13 hub and pillar wing 20 spokes. This is the same hub Elite is using in their top wheels like Elite Edge. Here if You choose You can build elite edge wheels without elite logo which reflects the price :)

In the attached file You can see rims they offer.

Re: Current Wheelset Offerings for Climbing
This the the Alibaba shop for Yuan An: https://xmcarbon.en.alibaba.com/index.html. It has some prices listed which could be useful as a reference.

Direct Link to the GRO2 wheels, I mentioned earlier: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/GRO-2-NEW-Forged-Pattern-Gravel_1600449606803.html. I would also go for the the Wing 20 spoke option.

Unless you already have a trading account on Alibaba, I would go through kubackjeees contact, sounds like you can get a better discount and probably better service.

Here is the quotation for GR02 and this is before discount. I think the price is extremely good. Way better deals then those heavy narrow aliexpress wheels or low quality ryet stuff.

I decided to go for a custom build 34 depth 25 iw hookles. The GR02 with 45 a little too deep for gravel for my taste.

Re: Interesting Aliexpress finds! - good deals, interesting stuff, new products etc!
Yeah, I don't get the 2x10 either.. That's ancient for most people...

It looks great though... Now make it 2x11 and hydraulic  :D

This 2x10 is really good with the cassette 11-38. If you look at the gear spacing they've done a good job. On the other hand 1x10 makes no sense to me because I hate the  3 teeth jump from 15 to 18. But most of the 1x11 aftermarket 11-46 cassettes also have this stupid spacing. I think 2 x 10 sword is a great groupset for bike backing and recreational riders. And with the 48/11 and 11-38 even I as a racer would choose this over grx 2x11. Becuse the top end speeds are the same but with microshift you get better climbing gears.

Re: Current Wheelset Offerings for Climbing
Thanks Jakub! :-)

I already have answer via Whatsapp - unfortunately the email address does not work anymore.

But I already have feedback and confirmation - I asked in parallel to the EliteWheels Edge and am curious what price is called ;-)

"You could purchase the carbon rims from us directly. We have no brand premium and the price will be more cost-effective."

As for the email now I see it is my fault! It should be sales@yuananbike.com ... I ate the "an" when typing it here. Sorry for that! Good to here that You managed to contact Leon anyway. Curious about the asweel :)

Re: Speeder wheels
Heya I paid the following!

SC-28WHD45TL: US$515/set (built with Chosen 8526/8527 hubs and Sapim CX-Ray spokes)

 

The weight for the carbon wheelset is 1460g+/-30g.

 

The shipping cost to Canada is US$120.

Thanks to this thread I saw speeder for the first time. They have really nice products, not only the wheels. I really like the handlebars they offer and the seapost is genius as they have this little knob to adjust the saddle angle which is great for saddles without cutout. nice

Regarding the Aliexpress app.  I don't want to put a Chinese invasive app on my phone.   I am sure there are ties back to the Chinese government.  I am sure they are tracking you...

Have U maybe ever heard about Edward Snowden and US government?

Re: Recommendations? Wide and deep wheelset It would be nice if You would just read few newest threads before starting a new one. We are discussing wheels in few other threads.
If You want a deep and wide rim You can use this contact. They have nice catalogue of rims and hubs. I've myslef ordered 35 deep and 25iw deep rim wheels with rd13 36t ratchet hubs, same hubs as Elite wheels, because yuanan is a manufacturer foe Elite.
