Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Any idea what wheels these are?

Hi all, first post...

Just got a Felt F85 bike second hand, and they came with some wheels that are definitely not the stock wheels.

The only marking on the whole wheel is on the hub which is an "R" logo, though after searching I cannot find a matching company. I'm suspecting they are just a cheap unbranded pair from China or something, but I just want to be sure before upgrading them.



Cheers

Welcome to BF.

What's wrong with them that you want to already upgrade?

Those look like they could be a set of Rolf Prima wheels, maybe Vigor or Echelons. Either way, Rolf makes a great set of wheels. I have a set of Rolf Vigor RS wheels that I have ridden hard on for over three years and haven't had one issue with them. What does the rear hub look like?
