Campagnolo Shamal

5

I have used Campy since 1971. You can't beat them for durability and smoothness. These wheels simply meet the Campy standard. My last pair had over 125,000 miles and the brake surface was worn thin.

Perfect Wheels!

5

I bought these wheels to upgrade from my old Mavic Kyserium Elite, and I am glad I did. They are super smooth and incredibly responsive. Excellent at climbing, and very stable when descending at high speed. They are the quietest wheels I have ever owned (no clicking whatsoever when coasting), which took some getting used to. They also look fantastic. Highly recommend.

From Euros to Shamal

5

proves to be a bigger jump than anticipated Lighter, smoother and the best bonus these wheels are quiet when coasting Straight line tracking and stability is much improved-although the slightly wider 25mm tires help as well Campagnolo quality wheels are durable and the Euros wheels remained true for a decade; I caught my heel while moving in the rear wheel and minimal damage I ride a Colnago Dream HP and 25mm is max clearance the new wheel/tire (Corsa G) breathed new life into a vintage bike Great help and feedback from PeoBike as well

Love these wheels

5

I purchased the Shamals with Shimano freehub body. The wheels arrived within a week to Canada and as promised, no duties or taxes, so what I paid to ProBikeKit was it. The wheels came with a nice set of wheel bags. The first time I rode these, I could tell right away the quality was top notch. It feels like there is no resistance whatsoever and the hubs are smooth as butter on a hot summer day. This lack of resistance is exacerbated on the descents as the wheels just seem to pick up speed as I roll downhill. Beautiful wheel, highly recommend. No regrets on my purchase and good experience with ProBikeKit for my first purchase with them.

State of the art fusion of conventional and advanced

5

These wheels are almost impossibly light and strong, and they spin up instantly on both acceleration and descent. Their alloy brake surfaces let you avoid the expense of moving to composite rims and heavy, complex, fork-stressing disc brakes. If you want billboard graphics, look elsewhere, but I like the Shamals' staggered front/rear rim depths, understated graphics, distinctive spoke patterns with chunky bright nipples and hubs showing their carbon fiver weave beneath the resin (although I could live without the cheesy "Extra Smooth Bearings" decal on each hub). The Campagnolo-signature cones and bearings, combined with their user-friendly tuning rings, are the signature of a product built to last. You'll need a 6mm spoke wrench and bladed-spoke holder for truing. Note that because the ceramic bearings ride on steel races, they need the same grease used in conventional steel-on-steel setups.

first purchase

5

Rims arrived well packaged with no damage or defects. the 10 speed cassette fit perfectly and the wheels are running smooth and fast. I'm even climbing better! wish the blue brake pads were sent with this purchase though.

Roll beautifully

5

I was looking for a replacement for my Mavic Kyserium SLS wheels which wore out after 40,000kms. These wheels had good reviews and the price was right. I’ve done about 300kms on these wheels over the last week and have been impressed. Not sure that these wheels make me any faster but have been very impressed with the quality of the ride and in particularly coasting and descending — the wheels roll beautifully and seem to spin forever

these wheels just arrived and I took them for the first time our on the ride. I was very impressed by how nicely the role. they felt extremely soled in the corners, and fast up hills as well. they are also very quiet and feel light.

Amazing wheels

5

These wheels are by far superior to a lot if not most carbon wheels. I have Reynolds assault carbon wheels. When I change them from the shamals i feel like carbon wheels are made out of cement. I only use the carbon wheels because they look cool but when its time to climb the sharmals get popped back on. Even on the flats they are fast.
