Cosine Wheels
After asking about wheels on another post someone advised about Cosine wheels ( wiggles own brand i believe)
I am not a light weight person 15st 5lb (105.7kg).
There is not much information about them compared to other wheels, so anyone who is using them I would be greatful for honest reviews.
Thanks in advance

Well what is that way? Are you suggesting that every bend on every descent can be barriered over a 180km mountain stage?

Good news you are not 105.7kg you are in my calculation 97.5kg still over the 90kg limit but not alot
Maybe he added the weight of the bike?
Thanks for info.
I will have to look at wheel options which have higher spoke numbers which i never knew.
Still like the Cosine wheels so hopefully someone on here has a set & can review them
I was looking at their wheels last night.
You're over the suggested weight limit of their carbon wheels.
As for the alloy wheels, only the 24mm version is in stock. The others have a May ETA.
A member of Wiggle staff has stated in the Q&A section "These [the 24mm version] do not have a weight limit but I would suggest that if you are over 100kg to keep a close eye on the spoke tension."
As the wheels have standard J-bend spokes, replacements should be cheap and easy to source, but I think if you were to ask a custom wheel builder, they would suggest a higher spoke count than the 20/24 that these wheels have, for a rider of your weight. 28/32 or even 32/32 would probably be more suitable, unless you were using very strong spokes and rims.
