Reviews over the

Elitewheels Gnar XC

Superb wheelset at a very competitive price. Light and stiff, top finish.

Wheels look nice. Delivered neatly packaged. Measured wheelset itself: 1360 grams (slightly heavier than stated on website, but still very light). Lightest wheelset for this money. Price-quality seems to be very good, only I can't say much about it after three weeks of use. Made in China like so many products these days. Time will tell what the quality and longevity of these wheels is. My 12-year-old son uses them in XC mtb races, I myself am thinking of buying them for my hardtail MTB too.

Pros & Cons

The wheels exceeded expectations, offering great rigidity and lightness. A very positive note is the inclusion of tubeless rim tape (pre-applied) and tubeless valves (pre-installed).
