this does look like the moulding bladder remains that where not extracted properly.

Is that an issue or not really?

Any recommendation on an endoscope? I might buy one.

But am still wondering how that wheel did pass quality control. One of the valves was too short as well.
I'm scared it won't hold in that area and also the unbalance it's causing is close to valve so adding up with the valve's weight  >:(

I've reached out to Kelly, let's see what she replies.

Hi,

today I was finally about to install my new Yuanan Wheels today which I received some weeks ago.

But then I noticed that the rear wheel is unbalanced. While it is (to my eyes) perfectly trued it is wobbling (uneven weight distribution).
The front wheel doesn't have this at all.

I then did try to look into spoke holes with help of a fleshlight and noticed amassed and displaced carbon fibres and resin at the point of unbalance.
I tried to take pictures but it didn't work out too well.

Is this acceptable? I had expected my new wheels to be well balanced when coming fresh from factory.

Regards

PS: Not sure if what I did photograph is actually causing the unbalance, but it doesn't look fine in that area for sure.

There's several threads on Yuanan here. Reach out to them directly (Kelly, ...).

Well CSC wheels fail. One of the wheel wasn’t holding air well, couldn’t get the tire seated properly (clincher); after much faffing around, at attempt number 6 or 7, I inflated the wheel and started to hear some strange sounds, then the outter skin started bulging. Air got on the spoke hole side and delaminated the carbon I think, one wheel is good for the bin…

That sucks. How did you end up with the seller?
Asking cause I ordered similar one which is soon to get here...

I tried some Cooma pink pads. Most of them went in the trash. Using galfer wave rotors I burned through a set in a couple of weeks and they were noisy af when wet. I was not impressed at all.

That's interesting. Ordered them too but haven't tried yet.
They had lots of good comments in forums.

Elita now offers a longer rail version of one of my favorite AliX saddles.

https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256806853095715.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.46.5c491802A1CBq9&gatewayAdapt=glo2usa

I did order a 3270L and it was crap. The rails where not parallel and I was able to break the carbon base with hands.
So directly requested a refund.

I'm useing the following Bibs from Spexcel.
They are okay for the 2 - 3h Winter rides in the Northern Part of Europe.

Anyone can recommend a long bib for autumn/winter with extra long legs for tall riders?
