Who on BR has bought cheap chinese carbon wheels?

kfinlay

following on from the chinese carbon frame thread (someone had to bring it up ), has anyone bought carbon wheels from china and what are your comments?

On ebay I've noticed most are tubular type but there are some clincher type although they don't seem to be that light?

I was also wondering if these rims are just Gigantex rims being sold direct?
Does anyone have any recommendations for these or alternatives or for that matter any warnings?

TIA

Generally I'd agree but as the carbon frame thread has shown you can get the same for less if buying direct
