If you know that already, just order without decals. They'll do it if you ask.

That is good to know. Thanks!

It's on top. The decals on my set of Elitewheels have scraped off a bit.

Thanks for the confirmation. At least knowing it is possible to strip is good.

Received the wheels earlier this week, tested them. Damn I love these wheels at this pricepoint.

This wheelset is on sale again! I should've waited for this day and bought this wheelset instead of Yishun's 206db-RSL50c which costs $634

I wonder if Elite can build a set of wheels using the same rims and 36t ratchet system, but with carbon spokes and ceramic bearings.

I think that yuanan (they are elites manufacturer) or speeder can do it for You. We have been discussing custom builds in this thread https://chinertown.com/index.php/topic,4484.15.html
I went for steel spokes and other user ordered carbon spokes. Check the thread

Isn't that the Elte Drive 40D, 50D or 65D that you have tested, Patty?

Where are you shipping to? The best price I’m seeing is $656.

Kind of haha. I'm looking for something like 60-65mm deep, but with 23mm internal and a 36t ratchet hub rather than their 4 pawl design.

I am from The Philippines. Well China is just north of us so shipping fees are quite cheap.

This is pretty much exactly what I’m looking for as well. Closest I could find is Farsports, which have a 58 depth, 24mm internal wheel with carbon spokes that use their in house ratchet hub (36 or 54).

I am not 100% sure, but I think their Far230 hub uses pawls? But they do offer carbon spokes with DT240 hubs, althought the wheelset  costs like 1300 USD.

Their hub for carbon spokes is the RD270, which uses a ratchet similar to DT Swiss. They offer 36 and 54 tooth engagement. Currently they’re $1050 with that hub.

Yishun sent me wheels with 23mm internals, 36t ratchet, enduro bearings, but they dont offer carbon spokes or anything 60mm deep unless 21 internal.

Magene's DB508 Ultra wheels (50 front/58 rear) with 23mm internals, carbon spokes, ceramic bearings, and ratchet hub. Probably my favorite wheels right now ($1200) but they don't have any plans to offer this setup in a 60mm+ rim.

Yes, seems like you are right - on their aliexpress store they have option of FD230 hub, but on the web shop they have listed RD270 hub, which is ratchet.
