ELITEWHEELS ENT 1.0

The Elite wheels ENT 1.0 wheelset is the entry-level wheelset from Elite wheels on Aliexpress. It has been replaced by the Elite wheels 2.0 as well as the Elite wheels 3.0.
What changes will you tell me about?

Between version 1.0 and 2.0, the front wheel features 24 spokes for the 1.0 and 21 for the 2.0. This helps reassure riders who have transitioned from climbers to rouleurs to sprinters 😉
The Elite Wheels 3.0, for its part, has a greater width (from 28mm on the 1.0 to 31mm on the 3.0), and it is also lighter.

Elite wheels ENT 1.0: A decent upgrade for your entry-level bike

The ELITEWHEELS ENT Disc 1.0 are carbon road disc brake wheels designed to offer a durable and affordable entry-level option. They offer a wide choice of rim depths, tubeless compatibility, and you will surely be able to find your freehub body. Their design prioritizes reliability and ease of maintenance, at the expense of the pursuit of extreme performance or maximum lightness.

The wheels use Pillar 1423 spokes like the ENT 2.0 and ENT 3.0, a classic steel choice, known for its robustness and availability. This type of spoke favors durability and ease of replacement over weight savings or aerodynamics.

The announced assembly is 24 spokes in the front and 24 in the rear, a setup aimed at cyclists who want something sturdy over lightweight.

The wheels are equipped with ELITEWHEELS proprietary hubs (ENT-HUB / AS511SB – FS522SB). No information is provided on the manufacturing method (forged, CNC machined), which places these hubs in a functional category but without any strong distinguishing features.

Bearings are available in steel

The wheels are available in a wide range of heights
38 mm depth 28 mm
50 mm depth 28 mm
55 mm depth 31 mm
60 mm depth 28 mm
82 mm depth and 31 mm width, allowing the wheelset to be adapted to different course profiles, from rolling to more aerodynamic uses.

The material is a full carbon fiber, with a matte UD finish. No details are provided on the origin or type of fiber, which suggests a design focused on reliability and controlled cost rather than the pursuit of maximum performance.

Weights ranging from 1,633g for the lowest rim to 2,002g for the highest.
The pair is 100g heavier compared to the Elite Wheels ENT 2.0 and the same for the Elite Wheels 3.0

My review of the seller

The seller on Aliexpress is the official brand. You should know that the brand does not offer the same products between its range on Aliexpress and its range on its website.
On Aliexpress, you will find more entry-level products with an older style (stickers).
No problem with the seller! You can go for it blindly!

My product review

It is a consistent product; however, for about 20€ more, you can get the Elite wheels 2.0, which will be lighter due to the lower spoke count on the front wheel.
If you don't mind having 21 spokes on the front wheel (this is not particularly risky), go with the Elite wheels 2.0, otherwise this one is interesting.

The positive points of Elitewheels ENT 1.0

  • Rim profile versatility

  • Tubeless ready

  • Good transmission compatibility

The negative points of Elitewheels ENT 1.0

  • High weight

  • Little difference in weight compared to aluminum wheels

  • ELITEWHEELS proprietary hubs (ENT-HUB / AS511SB – FS522SB)
