📝 Thanks to Farsports for inviting me around their factory. Farsports are one of the original brands of 'Chinese Carbon Wheels' - they've been doing OEM for a long time and been doing their own rims in their own factory since 2016. They've recently invested in a new hub factory, which means they now have a rather unique situation of controlling a large part of the production process themselves. This gave me the great opportunity to watch the full creation of a wheelset. From the hub manufacturing, to the rims, to the final wheel assembly.
❌ CORRECTION: In this video I wrongly said Mae's inspiration was Roger De Vlaeminck, I got the wrong guy... it was actually Etienne De Wilde. I got the wrong Belgian! Huge mistake on my side, my sincere apologies to both Roger and Etienne!

I also sell Farsports products on my website, Panda Podium, so of course I have some bias. However, this video is a real peak behind the curtain and you can judge what you see for yourselves. Thanks for watching, and thanks once again to Farsports for this exclusive behind the scenes tour!
