American Classic Victory
Not the lightest or cheapest wheels on the market, but neither the heaviest nor most expensive. This means these wheels also occupy a very competitive niche, but they come out fighting.
Built with heavier riders in mind, and built to last, they are solid, dependable and very well made. Machined braking surfaces add predictable stopping power, while 24 radial front spokes and 28 three-crossed rear save some weight, improve aerodynamics slightly but ensure top-notch power transfer while soaking up road noise and knocks.
Excellent bearings complement the wheel’s construction, giving a real ‘fit them and forget’ quality that should keep on giving. Traditional spoke nipples mean easy adjustment if any knocks send these wheels out of true. Broken spokes would be a cinch to replace, too.
