Light Bicycle Carbon Rims/Wheels (Review Included on 1st Post))

Awesome fellas, much appreciated.

Rims actually showed up today, so I could just get off my arse and measure them, but then I've gotta find spokes, and bleh. I'll order 266/268 tomorrow!

This will be the graphic I'll probably run on them too.

Here is my build. It's the second set I've done. 38mm hookless 26" on profile elite hubs with Sapim CX-Ray spokes.

ENVE stickers on wheels that aren't ENVE's. Why do people do this?
Also your wheel sticker spacing is asymmetrical, you hack!
 
Oh yeah, we're all bikebro's here! And as long as you ride you're going a good way to being an alright person in my books.
I guess that's what hurts, that they're lying to me. :sad:

Might go the other way in the end. Maybe the people who buy ENVE's will be laughed at for having to spend 3-4x as much for a wheel of comparable performance.

EDIT: The ridiculousness of that last sentence just hit me.

Would enve wheels be so popular if they didn't have such garish and obvious stickers?

Never seen an enve wheel with the stickers pulled off, so I'm not sure who is motivated by what

( of course could just be jealous - I mean if someone gave me a set, I wouldn't say no)

Funny my you mention that.... Some guy on here actually did remove enve stickers off his genuine wheels for less trail head turning :loco:

can't remember who it was.....xgthyo? Or was it some guy who won them in a DIY video contest? Can't remember... But true story lol

im totally against putting stickers/badgers on things that aren't the real thing.....
I love rolling down my windows and telling the tosser he has a nice AMG.....c200

Fake


Sport pack usually has a toned down body kit, firmer suspension (maybe)
but doesn't have AMG logos on the side... Nor does the C200 become a c32/63

Minty did it, he has murdered out decals on his Enve's now that you need to squint to notice. Looks SEXY!!
 
Steve24 removed the stickers from his Enve 26" XC wheelset on DT240's and couldn't GIVE them away....

He ordered a new set, applied them and they went in minutes!

Shows what a bunch of twats people are!

Enve or wannabe Enve decals on chinese rims just scream dickwad poser to me!

Get some Schwarzbrenners or AX Lightness and we'll talk.... :boink::boink::boink:
 
Visable red nipples = ENVE fail. I've rolled my eyes at this like when I say my mum's LV purse for $5 from Thailand :mmph:

I've seen some LB33 stickers or similar which look nice, and aren't lying.

if it has AMG parts, i see no issue with the badge. they aren't badging it as a C63, so the badge doesn't misrepresent it.

you put an enve decal on your yeti. i dont remember yeti making an sb66 enve edition...
 
Each to their own. I thought the rims looked boring the way they were. I had a screaming newborn when I was attempting to attach the decals hence I stuffed the spacing. Sorted now tho..

I just couldn't find a nice decal to finish it off and these worked for me. You better join the kit car forums and tell them of your disgust for copying the Caterham.

Here is my first set. Let the anger continue:
