Xentis cf wheels, help from Euro bros
« on: June 29, 2004, 05:27:48 am »
Hi,







I came across these wheels on the net when I was going through the posts on the Spengle cf wheels (see rebonding cf to alum thread). It seems that Spengle is now Xentis and they make some really cool lookig and light cf mtb disc wheels. I had planned on using Aerospoke wheels on Blue Crush when I switch to discs, but these xentis wheels are much lighter at 1580 grams/pair. Anyway, they don't seem to sell them in the US. I emailed about availability and price in US, but no answer as yet.







For those of you who live in Europe, could someone please find out how much these things cost?







thanks, I would appreciate it.  [smiley=groucho.gif]







their website is located here:

and here is a pic of the mtb wheel:























pretty cool, huh? thanks for the help.

Simon,
thanks for trying. I noticed on their website that they list dealers in countries like Belgium, Austria, Germany, etc.
I'll try getting in touch with Sprucey.
thanks man.

Found this article on the net - gives the tech specs of the mtb version - which incidentally is called Xentis Kappa

The websites are in dutch - mine is a little rusty but if you need help give me a shout

http://www.wheelmasters.be/nl/News/Xentis%20Carbon%20wielen.htm

And here is the link to buy a set - retails @ € 1569 for the pair - is it just me or is that not a bad price?

4500 rider,
thanks for the info. as for price, thats close to $2000 US which puts them waaaay out of my price range. guess i will stick to the aerospoke plan.
thanks again.

Go to Bellatisport.com  website.  You can join their website and buy them at a discount.  They ship to the US.  I've bought stuff through them already, great shop.  
I agree, the Xentis Kappa's look incredible.
