The Giant owned CADEX brand this week released an ‘All-Road’ wheelset featuring a w-i-d-e 25mm internal width on their 35mm deep hookless rim. Over the last three months I’ve ridden around 1000km on these wheels (and the 40mm AR tyres). In this video I’m out on the bike to give you my take on how they’ve performed.
