Quality

Quality is without doubt one of the most important factors that we consider when buying bikes, parts, accessories or clothing. As you’d imagine it’s especially important when buying Wheels. Let’s take at a look at the sort of things you can look at when trying to ascertain the quality of Sector CT30 Carbon CX Wheelset.

The first thing is material. Looking at what Sector CT30 Carbon CX Wheelset is made of will give you a really good idea of the quality overall. Take a look at the specs above and you should be able to see the material. It’s then up to you to decide if it meets your expectation.

Similarly you’ll also want to spend some time looking at the features too. Again the table above, listing the features will give you a really good overview. However you should think about the sort of features that you’d expect when buying new Wheels. It’s worth writing a list of the “must-have” features so that you don’t end up compromising and missing some important features, or alternatively end up buying an unnecessarily high specced product.

There’s also a lot of merit in checking out the brand of the product and looking at the various brands that are selling Wheels. Brands like Sector are of courses extremely well respected in the cycling community so you know you’re getting a fantastic product with them. But if you’re undecided on your product you should write up a list of brands that you’d be happy to buy. It’s a great way of filtering and narrowing down the number of products when you’re searching.

Next up you’ll want to think about the price and use that as a guide to set your expectations of the quality. If you’re buying the cheapest of the options in the Wheels category you should probably expect it to not be of as good quality as the most expensive. It sounds obvious of course. But this is where you can get a bit clever and use your combination of features, specs, materials and other factors to work together to get a really good quality product at the best price. We often draw up a list of “must-haves” and use these as filters when shopping online so that you’re only seeing products that meet your criteria. You can then sort by Price>Low to get the best deals.


Comparing Prices

Price, as you would imagine, is the most popular reason for someone buying one product over another. It is the single most important factor in choosing the majority of products we buy. The same goes for Wheels.

It’s at this stage of the buying process, when you’re looking at different options, that you should set a budget. Do some research to understand how much roughly you can expect to pay for the sort of level of product that you’re looking for. Then match that to your own personal circumstance and how much you can afford to spend. This will really help you in narrowing down the right product for you.

Sector CT30 Carbon CX Wheelset Reviews

Reading reviews is an amazing way of getting a good feel for a product without actually being able to try it or see it first.

There are two different types of reviews, and we also recommend reading both.

1. Expert reviews – In the cycle industry there are loads of really reliable trusted resources for expert reviews. For example if you’re looking to buy a new bike, BikeRadar Bike Reviews are great.

2. Customer reviews – these are probably your best resource for information. There’s no finances or influence involved, they’re purely just honest reviews from customers that have bought and used the product. The reason we love customer reviews so much is because no matter if their view is good or bad, there’s a very good chance that it will be honest and unbiased.

Our best advice is to head over to Chain Reaction Cycles and read the Sector CT30 Carbon CX Wheelset reviews there.

Owner reviews, as we say, are one of the most important pieces of research that we can do before we buy.

As we said in the pricing part of the review, brand is a really important consideration, but especially so when looking to buy Wheels. But as you’re probably already aware, you’re on to a great choice if you do go with Sector, as they’re a fantastic brand, making amazing products.

  • Description: Sector CT30 Carbon CX WheelsetDesigned in partnership with wheel industry expert, Paul Lew, this CX wheelset features a unidirectional carbon fibre rim construction that gives it phenomenal strength without sacrificing any weight. Sector has also equipped this wheelset with a 30mm deep tubular rim profile that provides the ultimate blend for weight, mud-shedding ability, stiffness and aerodynamics. Sector has custom designed the carbon CT30 laminate and impact performance within their existing tooling to meet the specific requirements for use as a Cyclo-Cross disc brake rim. This will ensure your wheels will withstand multiple seasons of brutal Cyclo-Cross races.Cyclo-Cross puts a demanding amount of torque on the rear hub, often in very muddy and wet conditions. Into the CT30 we have laced a rear hub with a four-pawl ratchet and oversized pawls to ensure engagement never fails. Both front and rear hubs are fitted with high quality double sealed bearings to keep the worst of the mud out. The lightweight 7075-T6 Aluminium alloy hub shells feature angled flanges to ensure that they follow the path of the spoke, reducing the stress on the spoke and increasing its lifespan.Features: Rim Material: T-700 Unidirectional Carbon Fibre Wheel Size: 700c Use: Cyclocross Spokes / Type: Pillar 1416 DB / J-Bend Nipples: Pillar Pro Alloy Hub Rotor Fitment: Centrelock Freehub: 4 Pawl, Shimano HG) Hole Count: 24h Rim Width: (Internal) 24mm | (External) N/A Rim Depth: 30mm Tubeless: No Single or Pair: Pair End Caps: (Front) 100x12mm / (Rear) 142x12mm Extras: QR End Caps Weight: 1400gBuy Sector Wheels & Tyres from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World’s Largest Online Bike Store.
