Reviews & Ratings
17:35The reviewer states the YOELEO QianKun CS60 carbon wheels are possibly the best wheels he has ever tested, praising their performance, technology, and build quality after 2 months and over 1,000 km of testing. He awarded them his 'best performance award' and plans to use them for an upcoming Iron Man 70.3 race.
21:25The reviewer states the YOELEO QianKun CS60 is an ultra-premium carbon wheel that is unquestionably better in performance than budget wheels like the Elite Wheels ENT 2.0, with significant differences in stiffness, power transfer, and overall feel, though it costs about five times more.

The reviewer tested Yoeleo QianKun CS60 wheels on a Ribble Endurance SL, finding they significantly improved acceleration, speed retention, stiffness, cornering confidence, and visual appeal compared to the stock alloy wheels. Despite the high price of $1,650 (around £1,220), the reviewer concludes they make the bike feel faster everywhere and are a worthwhile upgrade, though not a necessary one.
