Gnar XC are really excellent wheels

These are really excellent wheels, especially considering the price, weight, reliability, and serviceability. In my opinion, they are some of the best wheels available today.

Elite Drive 2 wheels

Super happy! After a month of reviewing YouTube and researching wheels, I settled on the Elite drive 2, 50 mil deep wheel set. After a month of use I am very happy with the choice. They feel light, responsive, they spine up fast, and feel solid when sprinting. The hub sounds good with great engagement. I as present I have three other sets of wheels (Trek, Specialized, and DT Swiss) but the drive 2 are my new favorites that I am using on my race bike. When considering the purchase, I had a few concerns, they were as follows; will the wheels arrive in a timely manner, will I get surprised with import duties, will the wheels be good quality, will I get good commutation after the purchase, will I get tracking on shipment. I spent a lot of time worrying about these questions. After the fact I am happy to report that It took about 3 weeks from point of order until I received the wheels, the price that I payed at check out was the final price (import duties wear taken care of by seller), they sent tracking with in a day or two, and once the package cleared U.S. customs (about 14 days) I could see tracking. Also they were very responsive to questions I had through the online chat option on the Elite wheels website. The reason I am doing the wordy review is to hopefully help the next guy or gal from spending the amount of time I wasted over thinking this purchase. I am presently looking at the new gravel wheels (Drive G50 CS) wheels for my next purchase. Hoping to have a similar experience with them. Will post a review regarding that purchase as soon as I can.

Elite Drive II carbon wheels

I’ve had an excellent experience with Elitewheels so far. The wheelset arrived well packaged, the build quality is outstanding, and the performance has met my expectations. What impressed me most was their customer support—they were responsive, knowledgeable, and always willing to answer my questions. Based on my experience, I would confidently recommend Elitewheels to anyone looking for high-quality carbon wheels and great after-sales service.

Excellent value for money.

On my third Elite wheelset now and still very pleased.
For the first time, with my new Drive II 65 wheelset, I had an issue with a small amount of lateral play in the front wheel. Elite (Martin) immediately sent both bearings and new end caps + reimbursed the bill to the bike mechanic for putting in the bearings.
Super quality! A+ service!

High quality, recommendable

I’ve bought 2 sets of drive 2 wheels (Black and Gold). These wheels are fantastic! Incredibly responsive, amazingly light and you can feel the power being transformed through them easily!

I prefer the look of the gold version on my bike as it matches the design of my frame.

I am very satisfied with my wheels and for dealing with Elitewheels.

Very good value for money, high quality and the customer service is probably one of the best experiences I’ve ever had!
They were writing emails to me during/after the shipping process just to make sure everything is ok.
Great job Elitewheels and special thanks to Sunny whom I was corresponding with during the shipping process.

I purchased a set of Gnar XC wheels for my Leadville 100 MTB race. The difference was immediate and profound. Spin up was faster, weight was better for climbing, engagement was terrific, and they held up to a very loose and rubble-strewn course. Not only are the wheels terrific, but the customer service was just as good. I liked the wheels so much, I wanted a second set for my other mountain bike. I had some glitches during purchase, but a representative was immediately with me on the chat, got me through the process and gave me the best deal possible. Elite Wheels customer for life!

Bought the Drive SL 48D SS on release. I recieved them in less than a month. The packaging was really good and without any damage. The quality of the manufacturing is better than many other brands. The wheels paired with Evolve Cima frame provide a really good riding experience. I will definetely buy more products in the future.

Just received and unboxed!

Just received and unboxed: they look amazing, especially with black on black stickers! First impression after a 60km ride this lunch time: very reactive and light although the wheel’s height profile. And with the wind coming from 3/4 front, actually very pleased with the stability!! So far so good. Look forward to other rides to further appreciate their qualities… let’s see how they climb….

Great second wheelset and even better service

I bought a set of Drive G36s so I could run two wheelsets on my gravel bike: one set up for road, one for gravel. They’ve been exactly what I wanted. Fit, finish and performance are excellent… They look and feel like a premium product, and swapping between setups is quick and painless.

My first ride with them was the 65-mile course at the 2025 Michaux Gravel Race in PA (not a gentle introduction for a brand new wheelset). They handled it without any issues and have been solid on every ride since.

I also want to speak to my experience with Elitewheels support/service. Sunny on their customer service team has been amazing…. he even tried to expedite shipping so I’d have the wheels in time for Michaux, and he’s been responsive and helpful ever since. That kind of support is hard to find.

Elite Wheels are some of the best carbon wheels money can buy. I have a set of Drive 65D II wheels, and they feel very responsive, light and comfortable compared to other Chinese wheels I’ve tried. I 100% recommend them.

Plenty of my friends uses Elite wheels for their road bikes. But I ride mtb predominantly, and through them I discovered Elite has MTB range too. Loved my first pair that I got a second pair for my 2nd bike. Just dropped off my bike at my go-to service center and the head technician was impressed at the wheels. Asymetric rims and bladed spoke and still running true since the first time I got them over a year ago despite hitting the trails at least twice a week. VERY RECOMMENDED! I even got one of my roadie friends who just got into MTB to get himself a pair sometime 2nd quarter this year.

Strong light weight at half the price.

Since most carbon wheels are not made in the USA you are just paying for a brand name. The Gnar XC is a very good wheel so far. I have about 400 miles of tough single track on them. Mine weighed in at 1370 gr. A Cannondale set was 1400 gr. at twice the price even on sale. I ordered the 36 Rachet since many reviews stated the 50 was too loud. I found the 50 was fine out on the trail and have not used the 36. The shipping time was only 2 weeks. I’m very satisfied with these Elite carbon wheels. A bonus is they hold air better than any of the 2 other carbon wheel sets I have.
