Xiamen Carbon Speed rims/wheels

[patliean1]

I ordered a pair of 65mm deep D65CU-33 w/ 5.0mm spokes, plain gloss finish, no decals. 26mm int/33m ext

Except I chose the T800 version over the lighter T1100 this time. Ultra-light wheels at this depth for myself is asking for trouble.

Weight should be around 1460g which is still lighter than comparable Magene, Winspace, Elite Wheels. Yet wider.

What do u do with so many wheels and bikes? XD

Ordered a set of wavy gravel wheels on the 13th and they have been shipped on the 1st. 24mm internal should plump up the 32mm gp5000 AS to near 35mm. Hope they fit the frame !
Screen grab from their website. Fairly light for t800 carbon and 24 spoke wheels IMO

Haha! I have a weird emotional attachment to my wheels than I do frames. Bike frames come and go. But great a set of wheels can transform almost any bike. I only keep the good stuff in rotation.

I received my wheels today! The ordering experience was excellent, and I’m excited to get them on the road.

D50CU-33
T800
24 Spokes
36T Ratchet Hubs w/ Steel Bearings
Sapim CX-Ray Spokes & Aluminum Nipples
XDR Driver
Total Weight: 1334g
Planning to install Continental 32mm GP5000's w/TPU Tubes

During inspection, I noticed some small burrs around several spoke holes (images attached). Since I plan to run tubes, I want to make sure rim tape will provide enough protection to avoid punctures. I’ve reached out to Peter to see what he recommends.

For those who have received their wheels—has anyone else noticed this? Also, are there any other areas I should double-check before building them up?

Thanks!

That wheel was scratched a little bit during assembling and testion adjusting, that area was repainted, they insert those spoke holes with a stick to hold the wheel during painting, there should be some undried paint on the stick then left around the spoke holes, our workers did not check them again due to urgent shipping. I sent you an video showing how to deal with that. So sorry about this inconvenience.

I was able grind down the paint with a file and sandpaper - should be good to go now! Thanks for the help.

 They were ~$500 and should be here tomorrow but we have 2 feet of snow on the ground here. I won't get to ride them for a month probably. Was -21C yesterday LOL

If you want to experience loneliness, take 80mm wheels in the mountains on a windy day.
I'm not doing that again

Are carbon spokes models available also with other hubs (that are also designes for carbon spokes specificly)?

There are some companies selling carbon spokes with regular nipple end, but we don't, since those spokes without stable quality.

But we can build T1100 version rims with regular stainless spokes.
