...because with the discount...

Did someone say, "discount"?!?! Who what where!??!?! I guess it doesn't matter too much as all the Winspace wheels on their web site that I've looked at are out of stock right now.

Chinacycling10 gets you 10% off, and with free shipping that's a smoking hot deal.

130kms today with 1700+ meters of climbing and gotta say I'm just blown away by the wheels.

If you are looking for a rim brake carbon wheelset, I can't imagine you will find a lighter set at this price that brakes anywhere nearly as well as these do.

Maybe not the most aero. Who knows? But they feel incredibly fast. 26mm wide and my GP5000 CLs measure just over 25mm.

How good are their hubs? I guess only time will tell but initial thoughts would be appreicated. And could you tell more about the brake tracks? They look quite different from other ones (e.g. LB and Farsports) and I wonder what makes them brake so well as you've mentioned? Are they textured?

What pressure are you running with GP5000s? Thanks!

So far, the hubs are great. Just as smooth as my Fulcrum Racing Zero hubs, and those hubs are fantastic.

The brake track is not textured in any way, and I don't think it has anything to do with the pads either. They are just cheap, unbranded Chinese pads.

I'm running 75psi in the front and 78 in the rear. Using Continental Supersonic lightweight butyl tubes.

Got it, thanks a lot. Too bad the rim brake versions are sold out now.

I got a set of the 50s in rim brake. After 2 rides so far so good. They are very stiff, roll smooth and paired with a tubeless Schwalbe Pro One they are good to go. Did not experience any brake rub putting out 1000+ watts on uphill sprints. Really like them. Hopefully they will hold up over time, but so far very impressed.

Wow, bike looks fantastic! How was it mounting the Schwalbes?

Thanks. Yours too. The Schwalbes were easy to install. Wheels held air overnight without sealant. I got to say though that I like the GP5000 TLs better, even though they are harder to mount and heavier.

Just ordered the GP5000s since I've got 3 flats in the last 3 months with the non-TL versions. Love the tire, it just doesn't seem to be nearly as durable as the 4000 or maybe I've just been unlucky.

Anyway, here's hoping I don't have any issues. Still loving the wheels.

would appreciate more input/feedback on the (rim) braking performance of these wheels. Also interested whether changing to a swiss stop or Campagnolo red pad offered any improvement in braking.

As I've stated previously, rim brake performance is outstanding. Not sure what additional feedback you're looking for? Anything specific you want to know?

I'm still using the original pads after about 2500 kms or so, so I'm not exactly sure what advantage some name brand pads would provide. But, given the current pads are just generic, I don't plan on replacing them with anything pricey. I'll first just try some cheap generic replacements first.

And, not that I needed his feedback after having ridden them, but it appears that Hambini gives them the thumbs up too. Fastest 50mm wheels he's measured:

Thanks for the feedback and the link to Hambini's review. His comments regarding their aero qualities was helpful. Hopefully his commentary won't distract from the intent of this thread...to share insight about a new wheelset.

I think he uses 23 mm tires in his tests and performance evaluation. Given that the rim is 26 mm wide (with 19 mm inner width) most 25 mm tires would expand to somewhere between 26 - 27 mm and will be therefore wider than the rim which will result in worse results. I wish there would be more rims in the 27 - 27.5 mm width range.
