Title: Low-key Carbon Wheel Set under 500€
Post by: kosmonaut75 on August 12, 2026, 02:24:06 PM

I want to upgrade my commuter bike. I live in Berlin, the mecca of bike theft, so I'm looking for a good, low-key carbon gravel wheelset:

- No logos, no decals
- Pure UD matte carbon
- Rim height: 35 mm maximum
- Price under 500 Euros

Does anyone have any ideas? Elitewheels is already too flashy for me...

CSC or Tagoola wheels on AliEx have some pretty good deals during holiday sales. If you can wait a few months, I'd look there.

I would also look at Serenade and OTVTO.

Got these, as ProX was recommended somewhere as part of Lightcarbon I think.

shipping took a while, but should be what you are looking for. Did around 3k kms and everything good so far.

Edit: its 38mm, but close enough I think ;)
