I wonder if there are multiple red Cheji pads? I have a pair of Cheji bib shorts with a red pad, and the pad is average at best.

I also dont find the red pad that great.

Overall Ive been very pleased with these wheels. Crosswinds don't seem terrible. My stock alum wheels may have felt worse tbh. I kick myself for not asking for a spare spoke or two, but hopefully that won't be an issue down the road. But ya, really like these wheels. Feel quick.

mounted a set of GP5000 AS TR 32mm on my DAO 50 wave. Did a 60km ride today. Never had carbon wheels or GP5000s before, so can't compare, but bike is definitely quicker and holds speed more. Set a bunch of PRs and avg speed was higher on strava. But again, probably more tires than anything, but Im pleased with them. Tires mounted fairly easily, set up tubeless. Had to redo the front as I somehow mounted the tire backwards  ::)

The downside, after I flipped the tire, I forgot to align the logo with the valve. sigh

Mine are in Canada, says the 29th delivery. Exciting!

Just ordered a set of DAO Bridge50 wave wheels with upgraded hubs, CNaero 416 spokes, 23 mm rim width, laser silver logo and ShimanoHG! Incredible value for the specs and hopefully they'll roll nicely.

Ordering process was great and @Matter helped a lot with customization. Can't wait to receive them and try them.

I never seen a set of DAO 50 wave with 23mm internal on Ali...

Lordgun.com
GP5000 £35gbp
And I got Michelin Cups 20mm £30gbp each
Then delivery as well

Never tried Lordgun. Curious if they ship to Canada. Those prices are like half of what I'm used to. .

They are not super cheap can pick up Michelin Cups and GP5000s for that sort of money.
Buy I’m sure there will be more emerging competitor brands.
Anyone know Trace Velo

you've got a good source, they're at least half the price of GP5000s for me

Would love to see a 30mm option at some point.

Wheels just arrived as I was home on lunch break.

Pupper approved??

Well, pulled a trigger on DAO 50 wave with the Easter sale. First set of carbon wheels! Excited!

I had my eyes set on a set of Elite wheels but the value/weight on these seem like a no brainer. Do we request rim tape/tubeless valve or do they come that way?
