Review: Prime Baroudeur V2 Disc Alloy Wheelset - heavier than their predecessors, but bargain price & roll nicely cycling
The updated Prime Baroudeur budget wheelset still rolls very nicely even though it's put on a little bit of pork since the first version.The Prime Baroudeur V2 wheels spin up and roll along very easily. They're not instantly impressive like some very light or very aerodynamic wheels, but after a few dozen kilometres you realise that there's just something very pleasing about the way they bowl along. For a £250 wheelset they're very good indeed.
Prime makes a feature of the new freewheel design lurking in the rear hub: it's a dual-sprung star ratchet with 36 points of engagement so you only have to turn the sprocket through 10 degrees before the transmission engages. It's not obvious where the extra mass is lurking. I thought perhaps Prime had switched version one's aluminium freehub body for a steel one, but poking at it with a magnet reveals it's still aluminium .
Use different end caps and you'll get a different, lower, weight. The headline weight in this review is with end caps for 12mm thru-axles, but it's no surprise the 9mm version's heavier; there's quite a bit more metal there.For their modest price, the Baroudeurs are impressively well built. They're straight and round, with even, high spoke tension.
