Technology
OPTBAL Spoke System
The OPTBAL rear wheel spoke system features 24 spokes - 16 on the drive side and 8 on the non-drive side. Cassette spacing in today’s wheels produces unbalanced tension in traditional 1:1 spoke systems. This unbalance is intensified with the 11-speed cassette, producing nearly double the tension on the drive side spokes. Generally high and low tension spokes have respectively tendency toward breaking down and coming loose spoke nipples. Unbalanced tension affects durability and strength. The OPTBAL design rebalances spoke tension, enhancing wheel rigidity and strength for a more durable wheel.

Just opened these C50 wheels. Haven`t install tyres yet. These are my first Dura Ace wheels. They look like are made in Malaysia... ouuu they are made in Malaysia! I read in advance the freehub is relatively silent. It is not. But the sealing should be nice, at least you can feel it by spinning the axle with hand. But also the freehub has a lot of drag. Probably the rachet will last longer then pawls would and will be more reliable. The design is very nice though. I find is strange that many of the holes for tightening the nipples are misaligned with the spokes up to 5-6mm. You will need a special tool which noone has invented yet or tighten or loosen from below, where the nipple is outside the rim. I decided to check one similar wheelset from URSUS that I got recently. To my surprise all the holes were in line with the spokes. And the freehub is more silent and with less resistance... But I will update the review later when I have some actual miles on these Dura Ace. Until now I can say FOSS wheels are way better and with completely silent freehub and cheaper. Gokiso - in another league by their own.
