If you are on a budget or want a robust set of training wheels, the ProX wheelset does represent a good offering. The rim construction is well above average. The spokes are of proven design and provenance. They are firmly aimed at the cost conscious racer and the only real compromise is the weight, the thicker carbon will hinder anyone who wants to accelerate quickly or go up hills.

This is coupled with a much thicker wall thickness of carbon. Internally, the rims are very lean, there is little evidence of tenting or layer displacement. The rim periphery uses a slit brake track, this is extremely effective in inclement weather wear the initial bite of the brake pads is much better than traditional flat brake tracks. This is a good design feature as it prevents the pawls falling out during disassembly. It has the characteristics of corrosion resistance, shock resistance, and high modulus. It is lighter than aluminum alloy but has more strength than steel. The hubs feature a 6 pawl ratchet engagement, the pawls and springs are held captive by an additional plastic cover plate that is an interference onto the edge of the freehub. The carbon fiber is flexible on the outside and rigid on the inside. The bearing fits were all very good and the use of CN clearance bearings means the bearing friction was low.Īfter 1000km of use, the bearings did not exhibit any indications of impending failure. The overall fit and function of the hub is good.

Hence, any replacement will be difficult to get from a tier 1 bearing supplier (SKF, NTN, FAG, NSK etc).

$389 (this will vary depending on local taxes and where you live) is firmly at the budget end of carbon wheel territory and at the time of writing it was the cheapest available and undercut several aluminium alternatives. The headline statistic on these wheels is the price. ProX originally sold via OEM channels but have recently started selling directly to the consumer, this is a change that is sweeping across the market. From dispatch they took about a week to travel to Europe for review. ProX is a Chinese company based in Xiamen and all orders are fulfilled directly from there. ProX is not a company that is widely known for it’s carbon offerings but it’s sister brand LightCarbon is frequently mentioned on the usual web forums when it comes to bike frames at affordable prices.
