Miche SWR wheels I have owned a pair of Miche SWR wheels for around 2 years now. In that time they have seen service on both my steel Racer Rosa and carbon fibre Epoca racking up many miles in the process, mainly on the harsh unforgiving roads of Northumberland and the Scottish Boarders mixing training, social rides, not so social rides and some particularly gruelling sportives.

The hubs are as silky smooth and the rims as true as when I first lifted them out of the box. But what most impressed me is the ride quality and feel. They respond just as quick as my "lightweight" 50mm tubular race wheels and feel even stiffer but less harsh !!. And if I shod them with a lighter tyre the weight would probably be around the same. All in all a highly impressive all round carbon clincher set of wheels from Miche and from my experience of other Miche products I would expect anything else.

PS my new winter "hack" wheel set of choice is now a pair of Miche RX5s.
