What would you miss more - comfort of 28 mm tires or convenience of tubeless?

To me the thing felt like a rocket ship. But I couldn’t test cornering, so I was wondering about hoe it handles …

Oh, yeah, way more grip with these wheels/tires. Like I said, can’t be for sure how much it’s the wheel/tire set up or the whole bike or just in my mind, but, it will be difficult to ride anything else. It’s pretty compact - for example, I have a little toe overlap.

Ordered my custom build from November bicycles on what is probably those rims and now I just have to wait

Did you get your wheels?

Not yet. I’m not expecting them to ship until end of June.

I opted to save a hundred bucks for a later delivery.

clearly optimized for 28mm tires.

Are they? 32mm external (or 32.5 for november) surpasses the 105% rule by a bit. I’d get some of these if I thought they’d mate well to a set of gp5000 tubeless 28mm but they seem just a little too big no?

28mm on the label is the rated width on a narrower rim. With these wider rims, expect the measured tire sized to be closer to 31mm. My 28mms have measured 30.5mm (specialized turbo pro) and about 31.5 (gp4000s II, they run wide) @ 50PSI on a 21mm internal rim width rim Roval C38.

I find the shape super interesting…

Shown is a 3D render of the final rim shape. The areas formed from carbon fibre are in grey, while the low density expanded polymer (foam) is shown in black.

Yup, love the company and had 3 rim brake builds with them. Are those cafe racers going to the regular ones or are you going for the “All Road”. I’ve been waiting for those 25mm internal builds and am seriously considering picking up a set.

I ended up doing the gigantic 50mm All Road wheels. It’s ridiculous:

I run a 30mm Gravel King smoothie and they measure 35.5mm after a couple months. Fills out bigger than my CX tubulars:

I won’t ever go back after using 28s. Just as fast and you can rail the hell out of corners, especially if the pavement isn’t perfect. And I’m using old timey reynolds dv66 from years ago. It isn’t by the book a great combo but it is good to me.

[Minty_One]

Ooooh nice! When I brought my All road 50s into the shop, the mechanics were like why are those mountain bike rims so deep? Lol

The ride is so smoooooooth. I love mine

Sorry, little off topic, but I dont see how to send private messages on this form and I noticed somewhere that you picked up a scalpel to replace your top fuel? I actually currently considering a 2016+ top fuel or a 2017+ scalpel, both carbon. Would you mind sharing what the differences are between them? Which is the faster climber? Which do you like better for descending?
