Hi all,
I am new to this forum and new to road biking as well. I would like to upgrade my wheelset and came across a really nice pair of Reynolds Shadow 2011 that would be a very nice fit for my bike. According to the specs from CRC, it says
"
The Shadow is designed to deliver solid specs and performance that rival any aluminium wheel, at any price. It features strong, and stiff, lightweight alloy rim with a low spoke count, internal spoke nipples, and a shallow-V profile, so it excels across a variety of conditions. The Shadow is hand-built, and loaded with quality for the long haul. It climbs fast, pulls through on the flats, and stands up to punishment mile after mile. If you’re looking for a value performer that’s way more than a training wheelset, Shadow is it.
Rim Depth: 31mm Spoke Patterns: Radial Front/2x-Radial Rear 20/24 Weight: 1633 g Hubs: Reynolds Front Spokes: DT Competitions Rear Spokes: DT Competitions
The Reynolds Assurance Program (RAP) allows you to ride with the confidence of knowing your wheels are covered by the best protection plan available.
"
But downside is I cannot find any additional review nor any information about it. It's not advertised on Reynolds website as well.
Has anyone tried these wheels? I am looking for something around that price range, USD 340. I know that the budget is very limited but that's all i can afford for now. I am around 92 kg if that helps.
Thanks for reading.
cheers
