    Comments about Easton EA50 SL Wheelset:

    This wheelset looks a lot better than the stock ones currently using.

    Service and delivery comments:

    In the photo you can clearly see the white rim tape with the red easton text but when I received the wheelset, there was no rim tape included. I checked the easton website after purchase and in it's faq section it states: "Note that the EA50 and EA50SL’s do not come with rim strips." So if you do buy this wheelset make sure you also buy some rim strips/tape.

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

    Comments about Easton EA50 SL Wheelset:

    I bought these as an alternative for training. However, the ones I bought had a strange defect where the diameter was out of tolerance and too large for any tire to fit on. The guys at REI took a look at it and confirmed the defect. I ended up, upgrading to the Easton's EA70 wheelset for $100 more. I would probably have a better opinion on this model if I did not have the Lemon.

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
