I’ll start with the bad. I ordered my 5.6 disc wheels in February and got stuck waiting for ages. Global pandemic, shipping from Asia was a mess. On to the good, tubeless setup is a breeze! I mean easy. No tricks needed, I think that shows these wheels are made with tight tolerances. Weight on these was ~1 gram less than expected. I also have a set of Tokyowheels 60mm tubulars which were perfect until I got a disc brake race bike. So far I’ve been impressed with the 5.6s they are very polite in most wind situations. They lightened the bike a bit over the alloy hoops I’d been on. The look the absolute business.

Outstanding wheels and support!
The Tokyowheel team is too notch in their support before, during, and after. The wheels are really well made, true, and smooth running as well.
