Great Complete Road Wheelsets
The best way to get any bike faster is to upgrade the wheels.
We build custom wheels here if you cannot find what you are looking for, but many people do find a complete wheelset that makes them happier and faster without breaking their budget.
Mavic Completes
Please don’t misunderstand us when we say you will like your bike better. That same bike in your possession will magically turn into a new bike; a faster more responsive bike. With the Ksyrium SL or the R-sys wheel systems, your bike will be faster. The stiffness of the wheels lends itself to energy transfer from your power into the wheel turning. You will notice on the first tight turn you take that your bike is more responsive than ever. Mavic does a few unconventional things in wheel building:
The first thing is the materials used for spokes. On the Ksyrium SL, Mavic uses Aluminum for spokes. The reason they are able to do this is the tremendous tension that the rim can hold up to allows for the aluminum spokes to be virtually still through the movement of the wheel. The R-sys wheels use Carbon for spokes. The system is set up like a wagon wheel rather than a traditional wheel, so the carbon is holding you up, rather than you hanging on the spoke. It works. It works well.
The second thing is to offer a guarantee with their wheels. Simply buying the MP3 program at the time of wheel purchase gives you the freedom to push your wheels as hard as you want. If something does happen, Mavic will fix or replace the wheel at no extra charge to you. It is so simple; If you break wheels, you buy Mavic with an MP3 protection program.
Easton Completes
Easton does a few things we find amazing. They consistently make bombproof wheels at affordable prices and they do it with style. We sell many of the Easton EA50SL wheelsets because they offer an immediate upgrade to most entry level bikes and they last practically forever. The secret to their builds is the final human touch they offer. We cannot go to into detail on their ways, but let’s say that we rarely see problems come up with their wheels. The Owner of Salvagetti has a set of Easton EA90SLs on his Jamis Eclipse because they are light enough to fly with, but heavy duty enough to not be scared.
