Reviews
I'd had a set of Aksium wheels since I bought my Ridley Fenix in 2017. They are very durable and have held up well to my 200 lb. frame and not so delicate riding style through all four seasons and well over 10k miles without much attention beyond occasional truing.
I ordered a new set to replace the OEM wheels which were showing signs of wear on the rims and spoke nipples. The new set came true and ready to go out of the box. I feel they are a good value if you are looking for a basic set of durable wheels. I look forward to years of service from this new set.
