Xiamen Carbon Speed rims/wheels

[volan]

Fat wheels arrived today

Happy with the quality. Tyres seated well, but fitting them on the rim was... well, let me just say my fingers huuurt really bad.
28c front 30c back - thanks to SERGE_K guidance. They fit really nice. Also I ordered xc rims and managed to lace the wheels today as well. And I'm really happy with the weight. In a day or two, VB 268 frame should arrive and so will my road bike saga begin.

Hello everyone,
First of all many thanks for all your efforts on the forum, it's great and helps me a lot - keep up the good work.

Based on your experiences and reports I have ordered a wheelset (and handlebar) from Peter. And I can and will pass on your opinion - it was a great experience and the products are really very, very high quality products. Peter helped me a lot, even when my questions were annoying, he always answered immediately and helped me - thank you!

For the wheels I ordered the new D50CU-33 T1100 rims with carbon spokes and Peter's in-house hubs. Weight 1,225 gr. The plan is to use 30mm tyres. When I have fitted them I can give an update on the actual width of the tyres if you are interested.

I am also happy with the integrated handlebars, I just have to look for suitable spacers.

Guys I've notived the rear wheel is out of dish, and it bothers my ocp. Difference is not negligible, 4mm, or in other words, double the distance. On one side there's 4.1mm distance to the rim, and the other - 8mm. I know how to dish it, but it shouldn't be that big difference imo. And the problem is I don't have the spoke holder to keep the spoke from turning while re-dishing. Can anyone give me advice? I'm willing to try to re-dish it, but if the nipples are glued, and I don't have the spoke holder, that might be pretty impossible i belive.

I don’t know whether the chain stays typically would be completely symmetrical. drive side needs to clear the chain rings

Was thinking about that, but tire is offset with regards to seatpost as well.

You really need to put it on a trueing stand and measure it. The bike is not a reliable measurement.

I stand corrected. Wheels are in perfect dish. It's the vb268 dropouts that are causing slight misalignment. I managed to fix it though. Mea culpa. Wheels are 100% straight, round and dished properly.

D45CU-28 T1100 wheels built with in-house 54T rachets TPI ceramic Bearings hubs, carbon spokes with nipples, 1160g/pair

How wide are these spokes? Will hidden nipples be an option at any point? Considering a 65mm t1100 rear wheel when you get the new hubs. (unless I find someone who makes something like a wide, 70 mm deep rim)

The spokes on that wheelset in my last post is 3.8mm, same as Farsports uses on their wheelset, and 5.0mm too. We have a bit more expensive ones 3.2mm carbon spokes like some big brands use on their wheels as well as attached.
Actually the nipples on carbon spokes are already hidden, they are not like the regular stainless spokes, you can tell from the picture. The nipples on carbon spokes request special tool to screw, that is why almost rims built with carbon spokes have to be drilled with access holes in the rim bead.

We are going to release the new 20/20h hubs for carbon spokes end of this month. So the wheels would be pre-ordered to customize now.

Could you tell us which bearings will be used as well ? 6803 , 6903 or others ?

[Cnasta]

I just ordered a 50mm gloss, carbon spoke, wheelset from Peter with small gold logos on the rim. Communication went good. He replies fast to questions and did send me some photos to helpt me choose. I'll update upon receiving the wheelset. Looking forward

Current we use these sizes on our 24/24H in-house hubs with enduro steel bearings for regular stainless spokes, and 21/21H hubs 20/20H hubs with TPI ceramic bearings for carbon spokes: 6802 on front hub and freehub, 15267 on rear hub except freehub.
