I was in your position this time last year. > [@How do you feel about the current Carbon Wheel market?](https://www.trainerroad.com/forum/t/how-do-you-feel-about-the-current-carbon-wheel-market/99211): > > I’ve decided i’d like to get my first set of carbon road wheels. I’ve fallen into analysis paralysis with all the content surrounding the topic. There seem to be two main camps: Inexpensive Asian brand wheels with varying levels of post sale support Mainstream western brands at a comparatively insane price point. Superteam, Elite, CRW, Lun, etc. fall into bucket 1 and can have me with nearly any depth carbon wheel for under $1000 USD Zipp, Enve, Vision will cost nearly twice as much and guar… I ended up with Farrsports and have had a great time. I recently had a unfortunate meeting with a pothole and an already lowly inflated tire which resulted in a total loss of my rear wheel. Farrsports gave me a 35% crash discount and sent out a new wheel. I’m overall happy with the customer service and quality of the wheels. I have to believe any zipp or enve would have died in that situation as well. I purchased through Panda Podium who also offered a 35% crash replacement discount, however they had slightly higher shipping costs so I went directly through Farrsport for the replacement. --- _[View the full topic](https://www.trainerroad.com/forum/t/lets-talk-chinese-carbon-wheels/106850)._
