Why Are These Chinese Carbon Wheels So Cheap? (£290 Tested) - Elite Wheels ENT 2.0

The carbon wheels I review in this video cost £290… Which already sounds a bit dodgy, right?

But here’s the weird part, these are the ENT 2.0 from Elite Wheels, that company that sponsors GCN, and sells other wheels for over a £1000 a set. But you can’t buy them on the Elite website, you have to get them off AliExpress.
Are they safe?
Are they any good?
Are they fake?
Are they even made from carbon?
Or should you just avoid them entirely?

Well, in this video, I’m going to put these wheels through all of my normal tests, and at the end of it, we’ll know whether these wheels are worth it or not.

Elitewheels ENT 2.0

Elitewheels ENT 2.0

Erstellt: 1. Dezember 2024

Der Rezensent analysiert die Unknown Wheels (ENT 2.0 von Elite Wheels), die £290 kosten und über AliExpress verkauft werden, nicht über die offizielle Elite Wheels-Website. Er bestätigt, dass es sich um echte Elite Wheels-Produkte handelt, die in derselben Fabrik wie ihre Premium-Laufräder hergestellt werden, aber mit anderen Komponenten und Marketing. Nach Tests findet er sie trotz einiger Nachteile als außergewöhnlich preiswert.

KI-Zusammenfassung

Pros

  • Echtes Elite Wheels-Produkt aus derselben Fabrik wie Premium-Laufräder
  • Hervorragendes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis bei £290
  • Felgen sind gut verarbeitet und laufen sehr rund (0,2mm seitlicher Rundlauf)

Cons

  • Schwer mit einem Gesamtgewicht von 1.740g
  • Verwendet ältere Naben-Technologie (Pawl-System statt DT Swiss)
  • Speichen sind dick und schwer (billigste Pillar-Speichen)
