Title: Sub-1000g XC wheels — Chinese options?
Post by: chapeu131 on October 28, 2025, 12:20:03 PM

Hi! Looking for XC/XCM wheelsets under 1000g like the Roval Control SL WC (~998g).

Any reliable Chinese options? Carbon spokes OK. Real-world weights and feedback appreciated. Thanks!

Probably Light Bicycle helios XC930 or Nextie Alpha 36S or Omega 36U. Both will sell you full wheels with carbon spokes, nextie, or berd spokes, LB, to get you under the 1000g. I like my set of Nextie 260g 36U rims just haven't ridden them enough to speak to durability.

Thanks a lot! I’ll definitely check out those models. I’ve heard about Light Bicycle before, but Nextie is totally new to me.
260g rims sound crazy light 😳

depending on where you are from I have some around $2000 with fiber spokes, ti nipples, and h-works hubs around 970g.
