This is my second video in a set of three, where I look at some of the lesser know, but apparently very good Chinese wheel brands. In my first video, we looked at an entry level wheelset, and in this second video, we’re going to the other end of the scale, and look at what can be achieved when you don’t compromise.
Nepest was founded in 2017, and started life as an OEM manufacturer producing for other brands. In 2022, they started their ‘Direct To Consumer’ side of the business.
Nepest offer various wheel options, and the ones I’ll be testing today are these, the MAUI 35’s.
