hey has anyone got any feedback about these wheels? Ive googled till blue in the face and cant seem
to find a thing

They are bucket loads cheaper than the alternatives and just wondering if this is related more to
exchange rate or product quality?

Thanks

Simon

That depends what you think the alternatives are. They are cheaper than other expensive prebuilt low
spoke count wheels, I guess being made in Australia helps there, but for the same or less money you
could get a very nice set of standard wheels built that would be as light or lighter and much
stronger, though maybe not quite as aero.

I have seen 2 standard spartacus rear wheels (not the pro model) have problems at races this season,
1 broken spoke and 1 completely loose spoke. FYI I race on 32 spoke wheels with Campag Daytona hubs,
Velocity Aerohead rims and DT 14/15/14 double butted spokes. They are quite light, strong and if
something does break they will be very easy and cheap to fix.

I had a set for about a month and was bitterly disappointed with them, however my riding partner
reckons they are ok. I am now riding mavic Cosmos wheels (old stock, last years model) They seem to
suit me better. The Aero's continuallly pulled spoles on me and I am not by any stretch of the
imagination a rider that puts much strain on any wheel. (57, Overweight and an amputee) So I would
like myself to see if any other rider has had the same problem with these wheels. Hop

I think they may be so cheap because of weight? The rear wheel is over a kilogram, and the front is close to a kilogram....there are far lighter alternatives for only slightly more money.
