Great wheels - period!I bought these wheels yesterday and had them delivered today.
For £99 i was expecting them to be a bit chokey and well, worth the £99. Normally im riding on wheels that cost a bit more so my expectation was very low.
What an absolute suprise i got when i got onto the road with these wheels. I took them on a 50km commute test over some of Glasgows most horrendous roads and they were a joy to ride. There is a bit of flex there but it actually made them really comfortable on the arms and legs.
Forgetting the aesthetics, they ride wonderfully. I was expecting a much rougher ride and they just took a lot of the buzz out the road for me.
Ive got wheels that ive paid over a thousand pound for and they are in a different league but not that different - thats how impressed i was.
Im looking forward to starting my new job in 3 weeks even more now that i have these wheels to ride on everyday.
I rekon they are great winter training wheels or commuting wheels. Obviously i need to spend a bit more time on them but at the moment im impressed. Well done pro lite -
Winter wheelsOnly had them a couple of day but seam to be good wheels roll well only done 58 miles.

Better than I expectedThese wheels came with my sportive 365 2 years ago and didn't expect them to be anything special. I've easily cleared 11,000 miles on them and never needed to give them any attention accept for re greasing the bearings which wasn't even needed. I would easily recommend them as I've had to replace the wheels on my second bike over the same length of time.

Do the decals on the wheel say, " GARDA " ? And what depth are the rims ? Thanks.
-
Hi Stev,
The wheels have a small "Garda" decal between two the Pro-lite decals on each side of the rim.
They have a 30mm profile.
Best regards,
Team Ribble

- Will these work with a 10 speed group set?
-
Hello Rob,
I believe that these should be compatible with 10 speed groupsets. When you receive your wheels you will also get a spacing ring, this is placed on first before you mount your cassette, which will allow you to use a 10 speed cassette on the wheel.
Thanks,

Yes, this would be compatible. You will only need to use the supplied (10-spd) spacer.
