I got a pair of the Falcon Pro WR50s this past spring and they have been excellent, albeit lightly ridden, as by end of July I had to come off the bike because of knee injury and replacement surgery. The WR50s felt immediately efficient, delivering easy speed regardless of my power output, and their slightly increased internal width compared to my previous wheels was evident in terms of perceived stability and confidence. Again, I rode them too briefly to comment on durability, but I had them built with CX Rays and drive-side CX Sprints laced to Bitex hubs, and despite me being a 245lb-er, they stayed true and solid right out of the box.
I'd definitely buy Lightbicycle again; I love the customization available, and the value is great, IMO. Easy and plenty communication from LB throughout the order/build/delivery process, too.
I hadn't thought about the tariffs issue, but I've been thinking of getting a set of aero wheels for my gravel bike for awhile, so maybe I ought to jump on that now and try to avoid any tariffs. Thanks.
