Bought a 27.5 12x148 boost microspline wheel as a replacement while getting my rim warrantied. Wheel arrived next day . Very fast shipping. Also picked up my warranty rim a week later. Great customer service and warranty. Highly recommend all raceface products.

Couldn't get a matching mavic deemax elite for the rear so the shop recommended one of these and i am highly impressed. They look great with the offset spoke pattern, they are light, strong and so far so good. Really happy with the recommendation 👍
