      Pros

        Cons

        • Bad spoke quality
        • Poorly Built

        Best Uses

          Comments about Altus RM40 / Alex X101 700c Rear Wheel:

          Within one year of casual commuter use seven spokes broke off (near the root, where they attach to hub). All my other bicycles never broke spokes during many years of use. This wheel uses bad spokes.

            Comments about Altus RM40 / Alex X101 700c Rear Wheel:

            I didn't expect that much, but I purchased this and the matching front wheel for my commuter bike. Both wheels arrived true and well tensioned. I have put a few hundred miles on them and they remain true. Braking improved as well over my existing wheel set. I was pleasantly surprised by this purchase. Note, they do not have stainless steel spokes.
