I bought a set of DT Swiss Oxic 1400 wheels. The rims are coated with a ceramic material and I’ll tell these wheels have grip in the wet weather. These things stop you like dixx so c brakes.

I did well recently on a second hand set of Fast Forward carbon rim brake wheels for about £250 rather than £1000. But I have also bought a 2nd hand wheel only to discover that one of the spokes had pulled out of the (aluminium) rim, so bargains to be had, but beware and check everything that you can. Also, if you are buying carbon rims for the first time then get good carbon specific brake pads. Swiss Stop yellow are an excellent start point.

Don’t bother with Mavic. They’re proprietary spokes and nipples make servicing their wheels near impossible. At least here in Australia. I have two Mavic wheel sets, both with corroding nipples and spokes yet bikes shops cannot get spare parts for them. It’s a real shame as they ride beautifully

Some of my favorite wheels are Campagnolo Khamsin, which I had for about 20000km on my Planet X Pro Carbon. Didn't have to touch them a single time and they still span as freely and as straight as in the day of purchase. Then, unfortunately, a car pulled right in front of me from a stop sign and at about 45kph I crashed with them effectively into a wall - the fork was literally in three pieces, the frame was cracked in probably four spots, and the front wheel was unfortunately also bent heavily, but about three turns with a spoke wretch were enough to straighten the rear wheel enough to be still used on my no-cost commuter.

Not sure that's right. I had a pair of nearly new Wolber TX profil rims on Campag Record hubs. They had Swiss DT eliptical spokes. The year; 1989. PS.. bought my first copy of Cycling Weekly in 1987. Back on the bike after near 25 year lay off.

i'm about to buy remerx rtx tubular rims (i was waiting for them since 2022 november) for my commuter and one of my road bikes from the early 00s. the front wheel of the commuter will have a shimano deore m510 hub and either sapim or dt butted spokes. it won't be lightweight but very reliable. i don't want to ruin my gp4 rim and early production mavic hub anymore.

Trying to decide between Bora WTO 45 and DT Swiss ARC1100 48. I ride in flat-ish terrains with some short climbs. Any recommendation? I am leaning towards the DT Swiss because of perceived aero advantage (but no clue whether this is true) and because of the look, but I understand that Bora have better braking performance and are slightly lighter. Any advice?

I have both, boras and arc 1100 48 and the dt swiss ones with 180 hubs are superior. Faster, more cross wind progressives in reactions and nice hub sound with the ARC’s. Also, I feel that bike keeps speed more .. and more .. and more ...

Ask for a ruler on the brake track picture of each used wheel, so you can see if they are worn out and you shouldn't buy them.
