should i be cautious of these wheels
 

too good to be true?

I almost feel like they are for that cheap.

Well, they definitely aren't the "Deep Vs" they claim to be, at least not the real thing. That said, they . . .

2900 grams!?!?

Wow. For a manufacturer to claim a wheelset weight of over six pounds is, I mean, my 29er mountain bike wheels weigh less than that. While I guess it could be that they are including the cog and tires and such, I get a bad feeling they aren't.

What are you trying to do with these wheel? Are they replacing another set, or are they for a new build, or what?

They will be heavy as Hell but most likely not dangerous.

A better bet would be the 1/8 inch julian deals

for that price.. just go to velomine..

velocity B43 to formula hubs - $210

velocity deep v to formula hubs - $180

The wheel set is for a new kilo tt build i'm planning on doing in the next month or so. and i didn't even notice that weight, that's rediculous.

I think i'll check those out, i was planning on buying a crank from them so i'll definitely look into that.

I have these, they don't really seem that heavy to me. They do come with the tires/tubes/cog so maybe that's why the weight is high. The cog/lockring sucks but everything else is pretty solid. Only issue is that I had to take off the tires and shake out metal shavings that got inside the rim when they machined it.

Nice bar angle on that bike in the last few pics luls.

oh god they're made by that arriv company

i'd stay away.
