Revin Cycling launches carbon wheel lineup
Revin is meticulous about all the details of the build, including the packaging and delivery to the customer.
What is it
Our friends at JensonUSA piqued our interest with a new line of components that they’re launching, Revin Cycling. Long impressed by their execution and commitment to quality and service, Revin Cycling is worth a look.

The Revin team is comprised of lifelong cyclists with decades of industry experience, backed by the bicycle retailer Jenson USA. Revin Cycling has access to the world’s premier manufacturing facilities in Asia and the relationships required to produce a competitive product. Wheels are built to our team’s specifications and meticulously tested in the real world, at the factory, and through our independent test partner ACT labs, one of the most highly regarded bicycle component test labs.
It’s a balance between the wheel components and a a build that the parts can handle.
From initial design to packaging and opening of the box when your wheels arrive, Revin touts the customer will have a great user experience from installation, riding and customer support should anything go wrong. And with carbon wheels, most riders like knowing that this very light, often abused product is backed by a good company.
Revin Cycling is launching five wheelsets that promise to improve performance. Wheel spec and build are paired to match what the components and the rim can handle.
From the semi-aero profile of our R35 road wheel to the asymmetric rim design on our E27 and E29 wheels, each rim is purpose-built to get the ideal balance of strength, stiffness, weight, and durability, according to product managers at Revin.
In the end, it’s about the ride. Revin tested the wheels extensively on the rockiest descents of Southern CA
DT Swiss hubs have become the standard of reliability and performance. Their hubs are lightweight, reliable, and have years of track record. It was the ideal choice to pair that hub with Revin’s rim even though they cost higher than most hubs. For spokes, Revin chose Sapim, Belguim’s premier spoke company a ride quality that is noticeably better than generic options.
All Revin wheels are put through Revin’s quality control process to ensure that the set that arrives on your doorstep trued, tensioned and ready to roll.
We want wheels that don’t call attention to themselves during the ride. But it’s nice when they look good as well and complement the rig.
