I’ll be using several criteria to explain our wheelset selection, including the carbon fiber used, hubs, spokes, warranty, and any other features worth highlighting.

What Type of Carbon Fiber and Rim Profile Are Used in the EliteWheels ENT 2.0, CSC, and Trifox Wheelsets?

The specific Toray carbon fiber used in the EliteWheels ENT 2.0 is not specified. The ENT 2.0 is available with several rim depths, allowing you to choose a wheelset suited to your type of riding! The listing offers 38 mm, 50 mm, and 55 mm options, but by browsing other listings, you can also find 30 mm rims and options deeper than 55 mm. These wheels are fairly heavy for a carbon wheelset, but they can support a total weight of 130 kg (you and your bike). Wheelset weights range from 1,450 g to 1,950 g.

CSC communique d'avantage sur le type de fibre utilisée. Il s'agit de la T800, si vous souhaitez plus d'infos je vous renvois vers mon article dédié! 
CSC propose aussi une gamme variée 38/45/50/58 mm concernant la hauteur de la jante et a une largeur de jante de 28 mm externe.

Trifox also uses T800 carbon fiber for its rims, but offers a maximum rim width of 25 mm, which could be a limitation for those looking to run wider tires. With its W11 wheelset, Trifox offers several rim depths: 40 mm, 45 mm, 50 mm, and 60 mm. However, it does not offer a particularly shallow rim option for mountain riding, unlike EliteWheels and CSC.

So, CSC takes the win in this category.

Which Hubs Are Used on the EliteWheels ENT 2.0, CSC, and Trifox W11?

When it comes to wheels from Asia, they often come with proprietary hubs. This can be a little confusing, as it raises questions about their quality and how they perform.
We haven’t tested these wheelsets ourselves, let alone over 10,000 km, so we can’t provide any real-world feedback. However, it’s important to take buyers’ reviews and experiences into account.

With both EliteWheels and CSC, you can choose between steel or ceramic bearings (with an additional cost of around €40). In our opinion, the ceramic option isn’t worth the extra cost. With Trifox, there is no option for ceramic bearings, only steel bearings.

The TRIFOX and EliteWheels hubs feature 4 pawls, while CSC uses 6 pawls. This means that when you start pedaling again, the hub engages at 6 points instead of 4, providing slightly quicker engagement and a more responsive feel.

EliteWheels also offers a hub with 60 teeth, which provides faster engagement. Will you actually feel a difference? I’m not sure, but it’s still an interesting feature compared with CSC or TRIFOX, which don’t provide any information about this.

So, EliteWheels takes the win in this category.

What Spokes Are Used on the EliteWheels ENT 2.0, CSC, and Trifox W11?

For CSC and EliteWheels, we’re looking at fairly standard spokes: Pillar 1423, with 21 spokes at the front and 24 at the rear for EliteWheels, and 24 spokes at both the front and rear for CSC and Trifox. They’re not the lightest option, but they are strong and durable.
Trifox does not specify the spoke brand, but they are made of steel.

What Is the Warranty for the EliteWheels ENT 2.0, CSC, and Trifox W11?

EliteWheels and CSC offer a 1,000-day warranty. If you purchase through AliExpress, you also benefit from additional protection provided by the marketplace.
As for Trifox, the warranty is two years. Regarding the maximum rider weight, Trifox has a 100 kg limit, while EliteWheels allows up to 130 kg and CSC up to 125 kg.
So, once again, EliteWheels has a slight advantage in this category.

What About Resale?

In this comparison, there’s really no contest: EliteWheels has a stronger reputation than the other two brands. As a result, their wheelsets should be easier to resell on the second-hand market. Of course, the warranty is not transferable to the new owner for any of the three brands.
