No6 wheels are actually Farsports wheels. From Wheelsfar (custom build site). They just put their logo on the wheels and add 50% to the price.
I don’t think so.
But what’s I do know is they make a quality product.
There are a few other companies I think using the SR270 hub rebranded.
No6 wheels hubs look fairly similar as well.
Now both 50-31 and 60-31 rims have been listed onto our website:Is the max weight limit the same for normal version of rim, as well as also for light and super light version of rim?

Max rider weight limit on our T1100 wheelset is 120kg, it is just 85kg or 90kg on some other companies' light weight wheelsets.
D60TU-31 24mm IW T1100 version UD paintless finish weighs around 420+/-5g due to new mold, as soon as the wastage rate of epoxy resin gets higher, the rim weight could be a bit lighter.So in theory, when mold is pretty new, there is more wastage left on the rim? And the more time the mold is used, there will be less and less wastage? Does the same aplies also for the frames?
D50CU36 rims with 34c tires. I figured go as wide as I can and the SLC 3 ended up clearing these rims and tires with room to spare. Feels so good that I will probably keep this as my only bike & wheelset. My D65CU33 wheelset is probably going to a friend and my gravel bike is getting sold.Do you also ride on heavy windy days?
Any decent options that would suit a 31.8mm / 1 1/4" steerer? Thinking about updating the bars on my Grail.Farsports has some good integrated handlebars. I have one as well. They have both for 1 1/8 and 1 1/4. I think it is the same handlebar, but you can get sleeve to fit 1 1/8. So originally is for 1 1/4. And they have lots of spacers matching for diferrent bikes.
Did some searching, but all options coming up were the smaller diameter.
Its a giant safety issue on the road. Good grief, they almost banned hookless in the peloton over this. New rules require strict ETTRO compliance regarding tire size/internal width. So I don't know if was the poster or the rim, but that needs attention.Definately a big safety risk.
¸..... There's one drawback however worth mentioning. I use my tires tubeless and when deflated, the bead tends to unseat probably due to the width of the rim. ......Did someone elso also notice that?
Are carbon spokes worth it? I'm worried they ride harsh and are more difficult to tension due to less stretching nature of the material. Looks and weight are great - price also justifiable. But are they actually better as for ride quality, serviceability and longevity?I will buy only carbon spoke wheels from now on. Have now already several carbon spoke wheels and the differance is noticable. Much better acceleration, stiffness,... And I find them just as comfortable as steel spokes. And if one worries about that, just drop a few psi in you tyres. The rolling resistance differance will be practicly zero, but you add comfort.
Just another data point - my DC50U's on 20H 5mm carbon spokes and a Shimano freehub came in at 1180g, so a bit heavier than others.Could you share some photos of your wheels? Am interested how UD paintless glossy looks like on these.
Box a bit smashed up but the wheels were fine and ok. Seem true, haven't tested spoke tensions or ridden yet.
This was for UD paintless glossy though, so people buying without a coating on may save 10-15g.
