Endurance test: DT Swiss XCR 1250 wheels
Carbon rims? Four years ago, this was a revolution and reason enough for an endurance test. The DT Swiss XCR 1250 carbon wheels have been spinning on one of my bikes since 2008.
They were passed around a lot, everyone wanted to try them out and gain a competitive advantage. At cross-country races, marathons, 24-hour races, anywhere where low weight was required. Even after these rigours, the bikes still run amazingly smoothly, the carbon is fine, there have been no complaints, no defects. Top!
CONCLUSIONVery light, very robust wheelset for (racing) sports use. However, a very expensive purchase.
