I thought they came built with DT Swiss Comps but I received a set with Sapims - are these old versions??? They are going back but just out of interest really.

2 q's to the OP;

1) why didn't you check before you bought?

2) What's wrong with Sapim?

Sapim just sounds too much like "snappin" for my liking and I wouldn't trust them. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Really though, there's nowt wrong with DT or Sapim, both quality spokes.

Sapim Race spokes are probably the equivalent to the Comps. They are lighter, cheaper and stronger than the Comps! Why on earth are you returning them?

Comps are generally very easy to find if you need to, not sure the same's true of Sapim.

You could, if you were feeling really brave, replace a Sapim with a DT if required.

Has the world ended?

You're not actually sending it back for that reason are you?

Oops - maybe it doesn't read quite right! They are going back as they have been used but were bought supposedly 'new' from an online shop. Just thought I read they were built with DT Swiss the Sapims were a surprise.

Glad to hear it, now we can avoid another company or individual being utterly rubbished or the victim of a strop out by you online, madam.
