Got the 50mm Wave Whape wheelset and used since approx 11 August. According to Strava covered approx 400 miles in nearly dry conditions. Wheels have been all good except that front and rear bearings are completely shot. Rear seized and fronts on the way out.

Maybe a one off on a bad set of bearings but worth checking your bearings. Good news is contacted Serenade and they had no issues posting out a new set.

Just a follow up that new set of 6x SKF bearings arrived and have been installed. These seem to be an upgrade from stock but I'm no engineer or bearing expert. These are the new bearings - https://www.acorn-ind.co.uk/p/skf/single-row-deep-groove-ball-bearings/6210-2z-skf/

Wheels are running perfectly now - thanks again to Serenade for resolving.
