It's rare I get this excited over a set of carbon wheels, but I really wasn't expecting much from these Goldix R180SL carbon wheels from AliExpress.

That is until I unboxed them and set them on the weigh scales...

They're good. Very, very good.

But are they better than the most popular budget carbon wheels on AliExpress - the Elitewheels ENT 2.0 and ENT 3.0?

In a word, yes.

🚀 It can be confusing when there are so many carbon wheels to choose from. Why buy one set of wheels over another?

So I created the Carbon Wheel Scoreboard. A comparison of all the carbon wheels I've recently tested.

🎁 I hunt through hundreds of AliExpress cycling accessories, buy them with my own money, and then test them out so you don't have to.

I scored each product out of 100 based on durability, functionality, and value, and created the Cycling Gear Leaderboard.
