Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Re: Considering Winspace SLC3, any thoughts?
« on: March 31, 2025, 05:58:10 AM »If I were to guess...sponsoring that women's conti team while also not exactly innovating on their primary sellers (wheels) has really put them in a bind. The competition especially for wheels has surpassed Winspace. And what was their response? Increase prices LoL. We basically have reached peak carbon spoked wheels for the time being.
Just like with the western brands Winspace was making huge profits coming out of the pandemic. But eventually they were stuck with large amounts of inventory they couldn't move, as the consumer moved on to other brands. You really don't hear much about them anymore like we did back in 2020-22.
Also Joe from China Cycling/Panda Podium has left the building, so marketing wise they are not up there anymore...
