Great price and quality. Good communications over delivery delay.

I ordered my wheels in December last year, and they still haven't arrived in March. Communication with them has been incredibly poor as there were no proactive updates informing of the delay, and they often ignored messages and emails. Look somewhere else if you want your stuff to arrive on time.

Love the wheels. Light and agile. A 1kg saving on my previous wheels.

Very good experience, wheels seem to be ok. Looking forward to try them on my new bike.
Please pay attention to FedEx, very poor delivery. They left the box outside the door and I didn't have the chance to check and sign the doc. I have already informed their customer service about it.

I recently bought a set of carbon wheels from Scribe Cycling, and everything went exactly as promised—the wheels arrived right on time. I did run into some challenges setting them up tubeless, but the support team was fantastic and helped me sort it out quickly. Great support really makes the difference, so thank you for that!
So far, I’m really enjoying the wheels—they perform great at higher speeds, feel stable in corners, and even handle crosswinds impressively well.

Great efficient service, friendly staff and regular updates. I would highly recommend Scribe

Incredible personal service in this day and age - prompt, kind and considerate help to solve my own oversight. Also the wheels are prefect - light and tight!

The wheels arrived as promised. Quick response when I reached out to query about timeline

After 2 delays I finally received my wheelset (Core 60 SL) and must say that the wait was worth it! The build quality, look, ease of tire mounting, rolling sound, freehub sound and of course sheer speed and behaviour in side winds are absolutely amazing!

5 stars for the wheels minus 1 star for the late delivery.

After riding around 150kms on paved surface with the Best Gravel 40 Carbon wheelset, I can say that the wheels are great. They feel responsive while riding out of the saddle, and remain stable in crosswinds. I was also able to ride through potholes and bumps without any issues. The hub is smooth, but a bit loud while freewheeling, which I personally like.

Regarding the shipment, it was delayed several times. I preordered the wheels at the start of November 2025, and the wheels were expected to be in stock by the third week of November. However, I received the wheels in the third week of February 2026. The was no communication from Scribe until I asked about the status of the order. But on the plus side, I always got a response within a few hours and Scribe also gave me a discount of 100 euros for the delay. But maybe good to know that if you need the wheels urgently, preordering might not be the best option.

Excellent communication. Wheels are amazing. Core 60mm.

The Scribe team is quick and finds straightforward solutions. I really appreciate that you always get personal feedback from support, and in a very short time.
The wheels are great too, and I would definitely buy another set of Scribes.

Great response to sales enquiry, resulted in me finding and purchasing the correct product quickly and easily.
Quick shipping as well.
Thanks

The wheels are fantastic. The packaging isn’t the best and was damaged but luckily the wheels weren’t damaged.
FedEx the courier company were rubbish! I had to keep submitting my email everyday to get an automated delivery update which was unhelpful to say the least. My advice to Scribe would be to change courier company 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️
All being said these are my second set of wheels from scribe and I would definitely recommend them 😎😎

Great communication, fast delivery, amazing wheels. Delighted!

Fast wheels at an affordable price. These are the second set of Scribe wheels I have purchased. The design and quality is very good and they are lovely wheels to ride and race with. Dispatch could have been quicker, with the wheels being delayed several times — this seems to be a regular thing with Scribe, so don't buy if you are in a hurry. But otherwise good experience.

Very happy I went with Scribe. I was a little disappointed when my wheels were delayed in shipping, but that was 100% out of Scribes control. Even though you didn’t have to, you guys made up for it by excellent communication and super fast turn around time after you did get the wheel components. Shipping from Ireland to Texas was very fast! Most importantly, these wheels are amazing!!

Pre-ordered scribe Elan Ultra 5 carbon wheelset after reading about them. Delivery got pushed back due to some material shipping delays, but they got them built/shipped ahead of their conservative updated commitment and arrived Monday. I went to pick up at FedEx location and when handed the box the associate looked at it and said “new wheel?” I picked it up and replied “new wheelset, I think...” (It was that light). I rechecked to make sure it was just one box and when I got to the car I opened the box before driving away to make certain there were actually 2 wheels in there so I wouldn’t have to drive back.
Getting home the pair weighed out to 1171g on my kitchen scale with tape (531g front, 640g rear), so before tape I’d imagine they’re pretty right on what’s advertised. Mounted Vitoria Corsa Pro 28’s. First ride impression, compared to my zipp 303 firecrests with corsa pro 30’s (note my first set of tires on those wheels were 28’s, not a significant difference in ride feel between that and the 30’s though I guess you could argue apples to oranges with respect to tires), they are noticeably lighter in their response to pedal input, and more responsive to handlebar input. By comparison the firecrests feel heavy and less responsive. For reference those zipps are pretty light wheels, under 1400g for the set. The difference in feel though was like when I went from alloy Stan’s wheels on my mountain bike to Enve m50’s. I haven’t ridden an enormous selection of wheels on the same bike like a bike mag reviewer, but I can tell you from the perspective of an avid cyclist, these wheels are next level coming from a generally well regarded high end wheelset. The Elan ultras are 1cm deeper, (they actually felt fast on the few descents and straights I rode in hilly front range area of Colorado), and over 200g lighter. Adding up the marginally deeper rims, carbon OSL8 spokes, hubs, ceramic bearings and you get a much faster feeling set of wheels. My guess is it’s likely the straight pull carbon spokes that result in a more compliant, plush ride feel on our rough roads out here as well. It’s interesting because in responsiveness they feel almost twitchy to input (in the best way) compared to the 303’s, yet at the same time they soften road feel/chatter, that has to come down to the carbon spokes. I know I’ll eventually get used to it as we do with all of our kit eventually, but these wheels make me giddy- smiling as I ride and actually giggling when I corner and notice the difference is confidence they grant me in turns, as they grab the road like I’m on rails, yet simultaneously mute the road buzz from the pavement at higher speeds.
I hadn’t heard much about Scribe cycling here in the US prior to reading a headline about their new fastest UCI approved wheelset. I took a leap of faith and tried them out. So far SO GOOD! Though I’m not excited for the day I may need to rely on their lifetime crash replacement, it’s good to know it’s there. I’m happy with my purchase and am excited for a season of new pr’s and lots of smiles.

Absolutely unreal wheels yet again!!! The only wheels I will ever buy, customer service second to none as always. Can’t even begin to tell you how good this company is

Seamless experience . Great customer support .
