9 Velo CD55 Wheels. Quite good
Added 2023-03-16 20:48:26 +0000 UTCPleasantly suprised with these wheels. They are quite good. Disc wheels are inherent slower because you have a cooling fan to power (the disc) but these were pretty strong and well made. Quite reasonably priced too.

I would go with the 9 Velo, the transition is good and unless you are going at super speeds the 9velo is a better wheel. The thing to note is that vibration losses from the wheels being out of balance are usually more than the delta in aero performance.
2023-12-06 17:30:17 +0000 UTCHow would you compare the aerodynamic performance of the 9 velo with, say the LightBicycle AR56-30mm deep? The LB wheels have a nearly perfect tire/rim transition for 28mm tires, and have more of a NACA profile, so I'm inclined to believe they would outperform these 9 Velo wheels.

2023-04-08 15:55:45 +0000 UTCI've heard some 'expert' guy on the internet say that he doesn't trust rim braking on carbon wheels. How do you feel about it?
