DT Swiss

E 1800 DB23 Spline Wheelset

Built like a tank.

Familiarity:

I've used it several times

I've swapped tires out on these and have gone between road rides and gravel rides. Robust build, stiff, and can take a beating. For the price, they offer great value. I'd say they're comparable to Mavic Aksiums, but with a more refined feel & finish. According to CC's Star Rating system, I'd give them a solid 3.5 if I could. Better than "Adequate for the job", but not quite in "Almost perfect" territory. My only gripe is the pawl engagement, the engagement is spaced out quite a bit; it could be a bit tighter.
