Reviews & Ratings
16:30The reviewer tests the LightFast X5 carbon wheelset, noting its exceptional light weight (823g for 30mm depth, 1039g for 50mm) and high overall performance. He praises the T1000 carbon fiber quality, clean internal layup, even spoke tension, and fast 8-degree engagement hub with ceramic bearings. However, he considers the wheels expensive ($1799, or $1439 with discount) and notes the warranty is only average at 36 months. He rates them highly, especially for climbers, but says they are not for budget-conscious beginners.
