Campagnolo Calima Road Bike Wheels

Fantastic budget wheels for my winter trainer

Bought to replace old wheels (Vuelta Crosser 700C) on my winter trainer. Located at Mantel for a budget price with Campag compatible freehub for a 9spd cassette (very difficult to find in UK). Wheels are not super lightweight, but sturdy, well built and supplied with q/r levers and spacers. Ordering was simple and delivery was quicker than expected. Mantel provided regular updates and excellent customer service.

Great wheels and service

1st class service and the wheels are superb.

Great value budget wheelset

After about 250 miles of riding, I am very pleased with this wheelset. Above all, I wanted something inexpensive yet reliable for a training bike, and decided to try out Campagnolo's offerings rather than my usual choice of Mavic or Fulcrum. Straight out of the box, the wheels were perfectly true and aesthetically very nice. On the road, I was pleasantly surprised by how well they rolled for a budget wheelset, and the rear hub has a very satisfying sound (not too loud, though probably not ideal for holding wheels without being noticed, if that's what you prefer). Sealed bearings are a great bonus, as is a slightly wider rim profile to accommodate bigger tyres more easily (though I am running 23s with no problems). This category of wheel is never particularly light, though they weigh very slightly less than other wheels at a similar price point. Only minor downsides are that the rims aren't eyeleted and the QRs feel slightly cheap. If they serve me well for the rest of their lifespan, I would definitely go Campag again. 10/10 for Mantel's service.

These are very good value wheels.

Theses wheels have improved since my previous purchase with the sharp edges now smooth. For just over a £100 a set they are great value wheels that work really well with my carbon bike.They also come with a cassette spacer if you are fitting nine or ten speed cassettes.They run quietly and true.

Wheels work well on winter bike.
