BikeWheelsets is a product-comparison site covering road bike wheelsets. This page explains what we do, what we don't, and where our numbers come from.
We compare road bike wheelsets using published manufacturer specs, current retail pricing, independent lab and reviewer testing that's publicly available (with sources named where a specific figure comes from an outside test), and general rider consensus from forums and long-term ownership reports. Every comparison is written to name who should choose an option and who should not, because most buying guides only do the first half of that job.
This domain published wheelset reviews from 2010 to 2015, then went dormant. The site you're reading has been rebuilt under new ownership as an independent comparison resource; it is not a continuation of the original editorial operation. Some historical prices cited here (clearly labeled "archive-sourced") come from that 2010-2015 archive. Where we cite an archive-sourced price, it's a real number that appeared in that content at that time, presented as a historical reference point alongside current pricing, never as a current price. Product photos credited as archived manufacturer photos come from that same archive and show only what is visibly in the photo.
