The indisputable superiority of ICAN mini-velo wheels

by nicole hu 17 Jul 2021 0 Comments

When you want to improve the performance of your mini velo, the quickest and most obvious method that comes to mind is replacing the wheels. Simply changing the wheels from aluminum to carbon will lighten the bike, make the ride more comfortable, and provide a snappier performance.

But then, you wonder which brand to choose, don't you?

To get straight to the point: go with ICAN! (laughs)

I'm not saying this just because I want to promote ICAN.

After much consideration, I ultimately landed on ICAN.

Let's look at the amazing qualities of ICAN that make me want to declare, "ICAN is the best!"

 

ICAN's Amazing Quality ①

Above all, the main reason I recommend ICAN is its outstanding cost performance. If you search online for well-known brands for main 20-inch wheels, a set of genuine DAHON option wheels (aluminum) for front and rear totals 50,000 yen, and higher-end models cost 100,000 yen for a set. Spending 100,000 yen just on wheels is a bit much. Even the Taiwanese brand Idaten, which has been gaining momentum with its cheaper prices, sells aluminum wheels for around 35,000 yen.

 

In contrast, ICAN's cheapest 20-inch carbon wheelset is 24,490 yen, which is incredibly cheap and simply no competition! It's truly surprising that we're comparing it to carbon, not aluminum.

 

There are very few carbon options in the mini velo wheel market to begin with, and ICAN has marketed itself to this niche. While many people might gravitate towards well-known manufacturers, I personally think it's a huge missed opportunity. Once you experience carbon, you'll understand its appeal, and when you can get carbon at an affordable price, there's no reason not to choose it. You won't lose anything by buying it as a repair spare either.

You'll want to use any money saved here to purchase other items, won't you?

The second reason is that they fulfill users' individual requests (customization) to the maximum extent. You can customize the wheels to match your mini velo, from whether or not to include the logo to the exterior finish. I personally like the ICAN logo, so I'd keep it as is, but you can remove the logo for a cleaner design. They even do it for free.

If you want to include your own original design, it seems there's an extra charge, but they can do it. Of course, you can also paint it in your favorite color.

Oh, but they won't put another company's brand on it (laughs).

You also have complete freedom with the surface finish, choosing between a glossy finish or a matte finish.

 

If you have any ideas for customization, don't hesitate to ask the ICAN team. They will respond kindly and politely in Japanese, so you can feel at ease.

 

Also, the extensive lineup is not to be overlooked. In addition to the popular 20-inch (451, 406) sizes, 16-inch (349) and 24-inch (520) wheels are also available, so you can install them on any mini velo.

The performance is also impeccable.

Often, people have the mistaken preconception that "Chinese wheels are cheap but have poor performance," but that is completely wrong.

While I've heard strange rumors about weak lateral rigidity, they provide products that have passed international standard tests, so it's all just misinformation.

 

The hub rotation is very smooth, and starting is also seamless.

You might not feel much of a difference on flat roads, but you'll definitely notice the lightness, especially on uphill climbs.

The carbon material used is Toray T700, which is an entry-level carbon and a softer material, but it's finished sturdily without any flex.

Not just me, but many actual users have positive feedback, and there are numerous voices confirming their satisfaction, so please check it out.

ICAN's after-sales service is also perfect.

They guarantee products against manufacturing defects for three years from the date of purchase.

During the warranty period, ICAN will replace or repair (if possible) defective parts free of charge. If you purchase directly from their website, ICAN also covers import duties.

 

I believe you now understand that ICAN is an excellent brand after comparing these various advantages.

 

ICAN is currently running a Summer Campaign 2021!

A discount sale is ongoing until July 31st for ICAN fans who have previously purchased ICAN products.

 

Not only the mini velo wheels introduced this time, but also FL series wheels, road bikes, and F1 folding bikes are incredibly good deals, with discounts of 6% to 10% off the usual prices.

 

Furthermore, those who purchase over 60,000 yen will receive an original T-shirt as a gift, which is very generous. Is it the design worn by the person in the video? You'll have to wait and see (laughs).

Even though their products already offer excellent cost performance, this is simply delightful for users.
