Even the difference is noticeable going from the 1st gen Elite Drive 65D to the D65CU-33 t1100.

Both have carbon spokes and are 65mm deep. But the Carbon Speed are stiffer and magically handle crosswind better.

I am considering to change my Elite Wheels Edge for D50CU-33 t1100. Is here someone who made the same decision and can share experience with us?

I have juts sold my CRW 50/60s for a set of T1100 D50Front and D60Rear CU31s
Also have another Chinese OEM brand of wheel 60/65 T1000 carbon spokes so far been great

Just need to be patient, i struggled to get hold of him
Last week but did eventually. Best to contact him during Chinese business hours which is +7 hours here in the UK on WhatsApp I found so had to get my ass out of bed early!

Hi all,

I just confirmation of my wheels being shipped, looking forward to having them in my hands 8)

Specs:
D60TU-31 T800 rims 24/24H UD matt
With access holes
Internal nipple build
In-house hubs 24/24H 36T rachets enduro steel bearings center lock straight pull for 100*12/142*12 with Shimano HG driver
Sapim CX-Ray spokes
Sapim self-securing nipples

I went with these after discussing with Peter my requirements.
Usecase:
I am 83kg, do a bit of road racing and some races include a tiny bit of pavé or gravel sectors. Never a lot of sustained climbing. Hence the T800 rims for peace of mind and 24 steel spokes. I went with internal nipples to offset (theoretical, I know) 24 vs 20 (carbon) spokes.

You think T800 is stronger/more robust than the other options, particularly the T1100? I don't have a strong opinion one way or the other, just curious.

T800 is more flexible, which makes it less brittle. Because it's more flexible, they need to use more of it to make the rim sufficiently stiff. Because there is more material, it will be more robust.

I followed the same approach (after consulting Peter and some internet research) and chose T800 + steel spokes for my Gravel bike. The weight difference to T1100 + carbon spokes is just ~ 163 g and it gives me some peace of mind. I clocked in the first rougher gravel rides on trials and a long 200 km ride last Sunday, 530 km total so far. I am still happy, the wheel set was a significant upgrade and the wheels survived all beatings on the trials so far (I was kinda nervous the first couple of km)

If you dont mind me asking, what was the cost for these? After a similar spec.
Thanks

As if I already don't have a backlog of gravel wheels to feature, Peter goes and drops these LoL

For my TanTan GR201 gravel frame folks...these will be the meta wheel.
