Are the AR56s still the only 23mm option? Am looking for a similar setup but have seen in a discussion over at weightweenies regarding the V profile of the AR56 as being a bit dated. Would like to stick to 23mm as I am running 28s and not planning to change that. Any ideas here?

Yoeleo is currently having a Black Friday sale on both their wheels and frames.

My set of C60 DB PRO wheels came in real world weight of 1373g with steel spokes. Rim specs are 23mm internal 32mm external. I imagine the C50 version will be around 1330-1350g. Yoeleo said these can pull double duty for gravel as well.

The BF sale drops the price from $1000 to $800
Full Disclosure: I do have discount code to save an additional 10% which puts these at around $720. Anyone can send me a PM for the code.

Well before I was provided any promo code from Yoeleo, I had already done a video on these wheels months ago. And I've concluded this new latest line of DB Pro wheels will make it into my Top 5 favorite (ready to ship) wheels. The specs to weight to price ratio are pretty compelling. Of course it's very tough to compete with OEM suppliers on price if you're willing to wait a few weeks for fulfillment.

What's your kickback on such sales? At ~700, it's entering OEM territory, except the OEM can maybe spec carbon spokes - although i havent compared the hubs. So it's becoming a legit deal.
Fast on the flat. And nowhere else.

I built a pair of Light Bicycle AR56's last year on DT240's with Sapim spokes. Not the lightest setup available but I've been very pleased putting about 8000km on them this Summer. I've had them on the roughest of roads and even some gravel. I find them more manageable in crosswinds than the 51mm deep Bontrager's I had on the same bike when rolling a 28mm Conti GP5000. The whole process with LB was smooth but they do take a while to ship when customized.
