Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Re: ELITEWHEELS Drive vs. SuperTeam EVO
« on: October 27, 2024, 03:02:51 AM »Tough question, mate. I'd probably say the LĂșn HYPER 2023 (I've only ridden the SE since, but they're basically identical) due to the combination of stiffness, durability and design (butterfly-weave). If the HYPER 3 (which I ride now) had a butterfly-weave finish, I'd vote for them. I find them more comfortable, the wider spokes make them look cooler, and they have a wider inner rim width.
With DRIVE wheels, the quality of the bearings annoys me, and with Superteam All-Carbon Ultra 2023, I am not 100% sure if they solved all the manufacturing issues they faced in the beginning (when I got a pair for a review where the real hub failed). Then, they sent me new rear wheels, and since then, there have been no issues. Ride-wise, they are probably most well-balanced.
Hello Petr,
I am thinking of buying the DRIVE 40D wheels after browsing this forum and your site.
Can you tell me which bearing (brand/model) you chose to put on your drives after 2000 km?
I think I will choose good steel bearings.
Thank you,
