Re: Ace Sprint carbon wheels on Aliexpress Have since sold that wheel and bike but my wife and I both used it for the entire summer race season without any issue. $395 is a great price. I would suggest the upgraded shipping. It only takes about a week vs sometimes 3 or more weeks.

I've also had good experiences with gozone.

Re: Ace Sprint carbon wheels on Aliexpress Interested to see the Tri spoke.

The disc is good quality. It's exactly the same as the nine velo disc which is in the $1200 range. Just be aware that with the ultra light weight, it sacrifices a bit of lateral stiffness. So if you have super tight clearance on your rear stays, you might get a bit of brake or tire rub on hard efforts (standing up hill).  Personally it can be an issue on my Cervelo p3x.

I went with a different disc on the p3x which was from Gozone.  It's about 200gr leaving but stiffer.  I prefer this gozone disc overall. It gives a bit more clearance on the drive side so if you are running an OSPW RD you don't have as much a chance of rubbing against the disc. I personally prefer the Gozone disc wheel for that reason but it is more expensive.

I have 3 other sets of wheels from Ace sprint varying from 60mm to 80mm depths. All carbon spokes. They're great wheels. Well built with smooth hubs. No complaints at all. Shipping can take a little longer if you make customizations like decals or finishes, but Edwin communicated well.

Re: Ace Sprint carbon wheels on Aliexpress Disc wheel seems pretty decent quality, no dodgy bits of carbon sticking out or rough edges. Not ridden it yet to test ride feel etc. Both wheels will be getting road tested this weekend.
Rather interestingly, Evolve Aero (formerly Revolver) have just released a new superlight disc wheel dubbed the Helikon (https://www.evolveaero.com/shop/disc-brake-wheels/helikon-disc-wheel/).
This looks identical to the Acesprint disc i received. My disc came out at 1017g, with a standard hub. Evolve disc; 950g+/- 30g with a DT Swiss hub, make of that what you will...

Re: Ace Sprint carbon wheels on Aliexpress Following on from previous message, this is how they look on the TT rig.

Ah, thats where that Power meter went then, had that on my watchlist :D

Sick looking bike and below 1300€ is incredible. Koudos.

I have my frame ordered and some parts already lying around, will be a first time build, so fingers crossed.

I want to build it up 1x12 with the GRX 827Di2 and a 44t chainring, so I can easily swap in my road tires between the seasons.

Im more in it for the building experience than anything else.

Yeah, sorry - I could not resist the price ;) Actually just got lucky. It looked like he was selling the crank only but when I opened the add it was with powermeter also. Don't think many noticed before me.

Thank you.

Also my first build! One of the reasons I went for a budget build was also to learn. The Di2 will help you a lot - the only real problem I had was with the cables through the handlebar. So hopefully it goes smoothly for you!
