Very good all-round wheelset, aero and lightweight
Wheels mounted on a canyon aeroad to replace the original DT SWISS which were 62mm high, in order to be more versatile on the way up and down and to stay aero on the flat, I find that the scopes are a good compromise between aero and lightness, I recommend them at this price, The wheels were sent quickly and were well protected in a cardboard box, please note that you need to use the 1mm spacer supplied to avoid play in the cassette if you have a Shimano 11-speed Ultegra (it was indicated that it should only be used on a 10-speed cassette).

Truly fantastic, should have done it much earlier
Since fitting this wheelset, my bike not only looks faster.... It is actually faster. It honestly feels like I'm riding a completely new bike. Fantastic. This is my first carbon wheelset and I am hugely excited about it. I have heard many times from bike mates and experts that a carbon wheelset is perhaps the best upgrade you can do to your bike. This turns out to be absolutely true. My choice fell on this set because of the price and because it is a Dutch brand. The wheels handlebars are sharp and combined with tubeless Continental Grand Prix tyres they also provide extra comfort. Kudos to the staff at Mantel Den Bosch for their good advice and help with fitting after purchase. Top service, I am happy to make a detour for that.
- Beautiful design
- Beautiful sound
- Comfortable in combination with tubeless
- Tighter handlebars
- Expensive, but cheaper than a new bike
- Wheel bags are indeed not a luxury

When in doubt, order!
After long hesitation I did order these rims, purely because I wanted more stability at high speed than the standard aluminium wheels. Was also a bit worried that I would suffer a lot from side winds but that is not a problem at all. The wheels roll super, nice and stable and efficient. The speed is more mental and physical than going faster because of the wheels. Do notice that at higher speeds the wheels do roll easier. So if you often cycle above 35km/h, it will really improve your speed. And what I personally like is that you no longer need a bell. So if you have doubts but you have the money I would definitely recommend them.
- Efficient transmission of power
- Noise
- Stiffness
- Tubeless was not a success, tyres went flat

No excuse.
After long hesitation, I decided to buy a set from Scope. Why the R4 and not the R5: slightly higher rims are only useful when the speed is very high and they are more sensitive to side winds. As I regularly ride in the Flemish Ardennes, the R4 is the perfect choice, even cobblestones are easier to digest. I put 32 tyres on it, which offer a lot of conformity but little rolling resistance. With tyres on, the rim still looks very high so looks nice. After first ride I immediately noticed the difference from the standard alu wheels that used to be on it. Tip: I put gravel tyres on my old wheels, so you get two for the price of one. The Scope wheels cut much sharper in corners and react much more directly when you want to shift gears. Ideal for demoing! You not only feel you're going faster but you're actually going faster. The ratchet is nice and loud, but it can easily be made quieter by lubricating it, which I am certainly not going to do! Why Scope a no other top brands? You're investing in an innovative local company. And for similar specs you won't find wheels at this price and looking this nice. No excuse.

Enjoy the ride. No Excuse.
After long hesitation, I decided to buy a set from Scope. Why the R4 and not the R5: slightly higher rims are only useful when the speed is very high and are more sensitive in crosswinds. Since I regularly ride in hilly areas, the R4 is the perfect choice. With tyres on it, the rim still looks very high so looks nice. After first ride, I immediately noticed the difference from the standard alu wheels that used to be on it. The Scope wheels cut much sharper into corners and react much more directly when you want to put a gear on. You not only feel like you're going faster but you're actually going faster. The rattle is nice and loud, but can easily be made quieter by lubricating it, I'm certainly not going to do this!
- Lightweight
- Looks very nice
- Performance
- Very good roadholding

Scope R4 ' Best of both worlds'
I had been looking to upgrade my old wheels (Bontrager elite) for several months and after a lot of research I ended up with Scope wheels. I was hesitating between the R4 and the R5 but am very happy with my choice. - The R4 wheels are light and aerodynamic. Perfect for Dutch roads but light enough to get up a hill well; - Fitting the wheels was smooth and easy; - Steering is sharp and precise and you are not bothered by the wind despite the high rims; - The 'hub sound' is really great, you have to love it; - The R4 scope wheels look great under my Emonda SL6 pro.
- Dutch manufacturing
- Great hub sound
- Lightweight carbon wheels

Beautiful wheels that make any bike better.
Rigid wheels of 45 mm height. Purchased in August 2021. Ideal for my fast group rides in the Netherlands, but also great for the hills and mountains. The wheels with black decals and skinwall Conti GP 5000 25 mm outer tires with latex tubes inside look great in my Scott Foil and roll, in a word, great. These wheels make any bike better.
- 30-day trial, 3-year warranty
- good height
- nice sound
- rigid!
