The reviewer discusses the Super Team Classic 2 carbon wheelset, which is the same as the SUPERTEAM 700C Disc Brake Carbon Wheelset. He notes that it is one of the most affordable proper carbon wheelsets, costing $312 plus postage, but he bought it for $251 with a discount code. He has ridden 500-900 km on them and reviewed 15 other wheelsets for comparison. The main upgrade from the original Classic series is the hub, which now has a six-core design for more engagement points, resulting in sharper acceleration and more direct power transfer. The rims use T800 carbon fiber, contributing to a total weight of 1540g. He finds them stiff laterally and says the ride quality is not compromised. He plans to release a full detailed review soon.

AI Summary

Pros

  • Very affordable at around $250-312
  • Six-core hub design provides sharper acceleration and more direct power transfer
  • Uses legitimate T800 carbon fiber with known strength profile

The reviewer discusses the Bondhus Allen keys, noting that he bought them with his own money. He mentions the build quality is good and the Bondhus name has a decent reputation, but he does not recommend the yellow case set because they are imperial and do not fit bike bolts. He recommends the red case metric set instead, though he has not tested it. He then mentions an orange hex key set he bought as a replacement, which has more sizes and works well, but notes the plastic case hinge is thin and may break.

AI Summary

Pros

  • Good build quality
  • Solid feel
  • Bondhus has a decent reputation

00:15:46

The reviewer praises the ELITEWHEELS Carbon Wheels ENT 2.0 as an exceptional value carbon wheelset, especially for its price point of $300-$350.

VB-R-177 in 2026 – still a good buy? Headset issues solved + long-term feedback?

The VeloBuild R-177 is a budget-friendly frameset praised for its looks, stiffness, and aggressive geometry, but suffers from quality control issues such as poor press-fit tolerances, bottom bracket creaking, water ingress, and seatpost delamination.

Overall, it offers good value for the price but is not recommended for those seeking high-quality finishing.

Cons

  • Poor press-fit tolerance causing bottom bracket creaking
  • Medium to low overall quality and finishing

I have been using this light for over a year now. I love it! It is very bright when in it brightest mode, and it has 2 different light frequencies, a more yellow color and white light. On my has bike camping trip, I thought I would be smart and only bring this headlight. I tried using it in my tent and it was way to bright as a nightlight. (LOL)
