Great value upgrade for entry-level bikesPurchased the RS330 wheelset as an upgrade for my entry-level bike. Bought them from Ribble when they were ~155 USD. Worth every dollar. As far as I can tell, they are a quality pair of wheels with a minimal aesthetic. Perfect for training, or for recreational riding. Freehub is on the slightly quieter side, doesn't bother me though. Will keep this set when I build up a new bike. QR skewers and cassette spacer are included.
Note 1: Use the included spacer when installing a 9-sp cassette.
Note 2: (Random) BMC uses this wheelset for their 2016/17 TMR02. Discovered this after buying the set. -
Simple choice for an Aero wheel setNeeded a good training wheel for my tri bike when spokes started breaking on the old ones. These wee a good choice and I may just use them for racing too.

- Can I run an 8 speed shimano Claris cassette with these wheels and will I require a spacer?

Thank you for your question.
Yes, you can run an 8-spd cassette on these wheels, using the included spacer.

Hi

What is the inside dimension of the rims and can you fit 28mm tyres on them?
I'm used to riding with 32 spoked wheels front and back, do I need to be worried about lack of strength with 16 front and 20 rear on these RS330s.
Many thanks

Hi Terry,
The rims are 20.8mm wide externally, 15mm interally, so they are suitable for tyres between 23mm and 32mm.
Spoke and rim strength has dramatically improved so most factory wheels are using spoke counts which would have been unreliable not so long ago. They don't have an explicit weight limit but I would expect them to be fine up to about 120kg (rider and bike combined).
Regards
Ben @ Team Ribble
