3.0/5
Usage: Heavy
  • One of the few carbon/aero handlebar that are compatible with a Aerobar.
  • Partially internal routing, very fickly, because there is no guide or anything, use some wire
  • In combination with aluminum (aerobar mounts or stem) it seems to be you need quite a bit of torque, otherwise all the stuff will rotate accidentally sooner or later.

EDIT: After about 7000km I changed the handlebars and found it to have delaminated where the clamping to stem and aerobars happens. It was always hard to torque correctly, switched back to aluminum, now it's firm.

Usage: Heavy55mm depth 28mm, Clincher Tubeless, Black Decal, RD07 Center lock

Great wheels, Even after couple thousand kilometres (2500km) they are still quite true and no issues so far!

Installation:

Tubeless rim take was applied twice (as suggested by them) and it's keeping the fluid inside so far. center lock disc brakes had no issues. Make sure, to also order long valves or valve extensions. But of course, there is not much benefit in deep wheels, maybe 0,5km/h faster, tops 1 km/h in good conditions (Side wind). I would opt for a smaller rim next time, so I can swap the inner tube in emergency situations better and don't have to deal with long valves. Hubs: Hub spins good, but like other commenters found out, the noise is not really pleasant. If you can, try to opt for a better quality Hub (DT Swiss etc.) instead, which ELITE also can build the wheel with.

Usage: Heavywith rotor 160 140

Works as a brake, comparable to a rim brake at the most though. Still, having a disc brake is still advantageous: - no rim wear, - better brake performance in the wet - easier to install than hydraulic - With the included disc I have the problem, that the brake does not center itself perfectly every time, so I sometimes have to tap the brake to recenter. Could also be the brake pads (Switched to Shimano metal)

Usage: Medium170mm, 50-34T, BB86 92
  • very light, stiff
  • the included Bottom bracked worked for about 2,000 km after it got rough and replaced (See last point)
  • optic is a little mixed, but pictures show it: Might be not great for a road bike, but looks more "rugged" so great fit for Gravel, CX, MTB etc.
  • Did it job, but I regret the SRAM DUB standard a little, so I switched back to Shimano's because it is so much harder to get (good) Bottom brackets for SRAM's.

  • Great glasses, for me
  • Photochromatic is ok... BUT it does not get totally clear, so it is not usable at night.
  • If you need prescriptions, most models have the clip already provided.

  • VERY bright
  • mount is ok
  • Battery was NOT included and must be ordered seperately
  • Cone is not useful for city or traffic, as there is no cutoff and you will blind upcoming people
  • if you ride over rough terrain the battery or light will flicker. In the end, a good extra light for the dark forest nights, and price was very ok.

Surprisingly heavy, not particular long battery life. But nice decent design. I already lost it (not the fault of the light, I put it on a saddle bag which is very prone to lose it)

Total crap. It's impossible to see anything in this. Compared to brand stuff "The Plug", the mirror is useless, as it zooms a little and is not clear, so it's impossible to see anything.
