The MSC Transformer wheelsts have been tested side by side and TODOMTB concludes the wheels are extremely stiff laterally, smooth and fast rolling, highly durable after weeks of use and abuse and look fantastic. And the easy changing of the axle system to handle all the latest standards without additional charges is also a great plus.
This is what TODOMTB had to say.
"With such high stiffness, we had to lower the tire pressure"
"The wheels are stiff well above others we've tested, and certainly we can ensure that this parameter is well above the top end some of those that come to our mind when we change mind set of wheels."
"Some of the wheels we've tested in the past tend to be too excessive in lateral flexion, something almost non-existent in these three models."
"We faced very technical stretches where we escaped with confidence, as we have seen that not flex easily. The wheels feel very stiff over rough and technical terrain, more precise and direct feeling on the terrain."
"Something else we have noticed is the increase in the use of the brake, and that maintaining constant speed higher than normal, this forces us to abuse front brake, this is a good thing because it shows the smooth roll each set of wheels"
