Customer Reviews
This was a great sale, and we have always loved HED wheels, so we couldn’t pass them up!!
These are my first set of HED rims. So far they were really easy to mount tires on (Gnarwall's) and look like they're holding pressure (Tubeless). The free hub has a nice dull ratchet sound and feels like a very narrow engagement. So far I'm really happy with them. My one and only complaint was the use of chrome (Brass) nipples and 2.0 gauge spokes. I'll replace them later with some Competition DT Swiss spokes and alloy nipples. It's still a great deal!
I would have given this a 5 star but I was surprised the spokes were silver. I did not see an option for spokes which I would have go for black colored to compliment the overall scheme of the rims. I am not returning them just for that but I wish there was a warning or an option in the page.
Lightweight , tubeless ready wheels for an affordable price !
Purchased the HED aluminum wheelset to upgrade an older bike that didn’t have tubeless compatible rims, the design of the rims made mounting and inflating tires easy (this is only the second time I’ve set up tubeless tires and it went much better with these wheels) I don’t know how much rotating weight was saved by going to these lighter wheels and eliminating the tubes but it definitely feels better and takes a few less pedal strokes to get up to speed. I’m very happy with improvement
