Shimano RS-100 - best wheelset for under $150?

I give my initial impressions on the Shimano RS-100 wheelset that I picked up directly from the distributor for less than $150. I do a lot of road biking and wanted to replace my Mavic Ksyriums as cost effectively as possible.

Just been looking at these $ 130 au each. Seems best option as my old Alex DA 22 are worn by the brakes.
My bike is an old Giant OCR 3 with Shimano 105 gear.

Thanks for the review.

How was it in terms of performance? Just saw a good deal on if for just a little over $100. Thinking of taking it.

I have this for my rear wheel. When I spin the wheel it lasts very short compared to my other hub which spins for over a minute untouched. How about yours?

[@farizrd]

Does it come with spare spokes? Can we put 28mm tyre on it?

[@bikerdude22]

Can they take 700x35c tires and tubes?

Excellent overview! I have a 9-speed and I was worried if these would work for me. I will be making an order soon. Killer soundtrack! Many thanks!

[@VincentStevenson]

I’ve been running 9sp on this wheelset since this video was made and it’s been working perfectly!

[@Zipking20]

Do we need a spacer? Please

[@KingRatDog]

For a 9-speed, yes you will need a spacer.@@Zipking20

[@benjomupas76]

Will this be compatible to vintage road bike? I dont know if the hubs size is compatible

[@ashkanahmadi]

Thank you for the video. I don't think you mentioned it in the video. Does this work with a 9 speed Sora cassette?

[@VincentStevenson]

Yes - I installed a 9 speed cassette and it’s working great.

[@ashkanahmadi]

@@VincentStevenson amazing. Thank you

[@leftyseel8658]

Just got these. Question. I got a 10-speed bike. Where do i put the spacer provided?

[@hugoforte1234567890]

the spacer is the first do go in

[@koenvantornhaut9226]

It seems the wheelset came with free hub already mounted? What is the type of the Shimano freehub please?

[@VincentStevenson]

9 through 11 speed Shimano

[@kurtmiranda2048]

Is this 8 speed compatible?

[@imamsubuh5990]

Is that ready for tubelesst tire?

[@VincentStevenson]

No

[@TrainerAce123]

Can 35c tires fit in this??

[@KarlosEPM]

No

[@ender4903]

Shimano WH-R501's are better imo for maybe 20 bucks more... Oops, sorry. They have almost the same price tag but R501's are 40g lighter.

[@henrycheang424]

If I am not wrong it can only have 10 speed...

[@jasonrichards9575]

Would of rather heard the hub spin than the music...
