The ultimate carbon fiber wheel? XeNTiS Mark3 SL Disc Carbon Fiber Bike Wheelset Review

If there is one upgrade every cyclist lusts for, its carbon fiber wheels. Not only are they lighter and stronger than traditional wheels, but they can also have aerodynamic benefits as well. XeNTiS is an Austrian company that makes arguably one of the most unique carbon fiber wheels on the market. Unlike other carbon fiber wheels that are open mold designs with a few decals put on them, the XeNTiS are handmade in Austria. The Mark3 SL wheels are one of XeNTis latest wheelsets and are the lightest iteration of their popular Mark3 wheels. At over 300 grams lighter than the standard Mark3 wheelset, the Mark3 SLs offer the same aerodynamic 42mm deep, 26 mm wide rim profiles with a five spoke design. The 622x18c Mark3 SL are currently designed for disc brakes in either a tubeless ready clincher or tubular option with 23-33mm tire compatibility. Utilizing a monocoque carbon fiber construction, the Mark3 SLs aren’t just another pretty wheelset, they are designed for durability. The wheels utilize XeNTiS’s own XH00
