Light Bicycle Reviews 6

First the bad-long lead time.
Good- competitive price and after a year of use can attest to good quality.

Never had a bad wheel: in the last 5 years; 2021-2026, have bought 4 AR56 rims ( for front wheels only as that is the important rim for most aero effect) and sourced my own hubs, spokes and nipples. One has been built with DT SWISS 240 hub, DT SWISS spokes and nipples. 2 have benn built with DURA ACE WH-9000 front hubs; one with shimano spokes, Squorx nipples and the other with DA hubs DT SWISS spokes and DT SWISS HIDDEN/internal nipples. Also have bought and AR46 and an AR36: The AR46 is a back wheel with a campy Record hub; the AR36 is not built yet but will have the spokes, nipples and hub from a DURA ACE WH-9000 C35 rearwheel. If you want some real reviews take a look on Reddit! Communication and shipping is 2-3 months from ordering to delivery in Sweden. A pair of rims only will be about 500 USD to my door with no extra costs whatsoever.

Very bad experience: I ordered 2 road wheels the 27th of march with delivery expected in 2-3 weeks, what they said. They informed me today 15th april that delivery planned for ...mid may... In same time I seen that the rate they applied for bank change rate US$/€ was crazy prohibitive, almost 1 €= 1 US$, as normal rate is 1 USD = 0,9 €...I'm trying today to get my money back...

We do not recommend Light Bicycle Carbon mountain bike wheels. We have had 2 wheels crack under normal riding conditions on cross country trails. The user is a light-weight 55kg female rider. Customer service has been poor. The products we purchased were designed as cross country mountain bike wheels however they are not fit for the purpose they are intended for.

I placed an order at light bicycle (rim and spokes). On July 10th. Still no delivery even after several mails.

Now they even don't respond to my mails.

Situation is getting weird. I will ask my bank to refund and I will cancel the order.

I place a order on March 9. 2025 with expectation to get two bicycle carbon rims in three weeks from China. Month later I wanted to cancel my order do to my trip to Europe, that I will be not able to receive my order. They said I don't have to cancel the order, they will send me my order in two three months when I back. TWO MONTHS.???????? I didn't accept that and I insist to cancel the order, so they agree to sent my money back in a week. Week pass and NO money from them and they stop answering my last three email. Now I have to contact Paypal to get my money back. It's unacceptable to do business as Chinese do and wait for product what they don't have yet. They even want to charge you handling fee for product you didn't receive. Stay away from this company.
