press and Reviews
EXCLUSIVE TEST – MERIT WINDMILL WHEELS | ADVNTR.CC
So, unsurprisingly, the Windmill Wheels are stiff but they are not so stiff as to be uncomfortable.
Power transfer is excellent. Put the hammer down and expect an instant response, because that is what you get. These wheels are fast so speed junkies will love them.
Merit Windmill spins up aero five-spoke carbon gravel bike wheels | BIKERUMOR.COM
Looking to create something a bit more unique, Merit Bikes has developed a new 5-spoke carbon wheelset for fast gravel riding. Designed to crossover into wide tire all-road or even the other direction to cross-country, the Merit Windmill wheels use a mid-width hookless carbon rim, industry standard hub internals with modular thru-axle compatibility, and are engineered to deliver a balance of light weight & stiffness when paired with large volume tubeless tires.
