This competition is now closed, and we have a Winner!

Congratulations to James Bradford; Scribe Cycling will be in touch with you very shortly.

Many thanks to everybody else who entered and better luck next time.

This week's competition is brought to you by Scribe Cycling who burst onto the scene last year with a range of well received wheels. Scribe might still be a new name to you, but if you've been reading road.cc this last year you've probably spotted a number of high scoring reviews of their wheels.

The team behind Scribe have used their vast experience of the cycle industry and combined that with what they say is a "zero compromise ethos", with the aim of bringing you some of the best pound-for-pound wheels currently available. Our reviewers have certainly been impressed so far!

With the full Scribe range to pick from, we've listed a few of examples of what you might choose and will leave you to check out the rest at www.scribecycling.co.uk

Scribe-Competition 2020-50s-v2

Scribe Aero Wide+ 50D wheelset

If you’re running a disc set-up, Scribe has you covered. We reviewed their Aero Wide+ 50 Discs back in July, and our reviewer Stu was impressed with the aero benefits, commenting: “Overall, the Aero Wide+ 50-D wheelset brings a noticeable difference to aerodynamics over many narrower carbon wheels, and, more importantly, at the speeds you are likely to find yourself riding in the real world."

Scribe-Competition 2020-Race-v2

Scribe Race-D wheelset

Weighing in at just 1479g, Scribe’s Race-D wheelset proves aluminium still has a place in cycling components. Using the same ratchet drive technology that’s found in its carbon counterparts, the Race-D is no slouch. Our reviewer on this occasion was Jamie and he was impressed with the overall package, saying: ‘Scribe has managed to create a seriously competitive package that provides all the durability, robustness, lightness and speed that most riders could ever wish for.’ You can read the full review here

Scribe-Competition 2020-38s-v2

Scribe Aero Wide 38 wheelset

Back in October, it was Stu in the saddle testing Scribes Aero Wide 38 rim brake offerings, awarding them 4.5 stars out of 5. The 38s are designed to be incredibly lightweight and seriously responsive. They could be a good option for those looking aero benefits over rolling terrain without having to worry about the front getting caught in crosswinds. With a 19mm internal and 26mm external rim profile, you’ll be able to run wide tyres too. Stu summed up with ‘Durable, light and stiff – these wheels deliver all three without breaking the bank’  You can read the full review here.

Scribe-Competition 2020-Gravel-v2

Scribe Gravel Wide++

Alternatively, if the state of our roads is getting you down and you want rims that are easily able to cope with them and some off-road terrain, check out the new Scribe Carbon Gravel option (700c 1316g / 650b 1242g). The Wide++ 25mm internal profile gives you the option to fit wide tyres for increased stability when cornering on and off-road, and increased speed due to improved rolling resistance - especially when you set them up as tubeless.

Scribe Competition 2020-Gravel-Rear-Hub

Scribe Gravel Rear Hub

For all of their carbon and alloy performance line wheels, Scribe uses a ratchet drive hub system which is similar in design to DT Swiss’ new EXP hub. Scribe says: “The ratchet system offers high-speed engagement and as there is only one moving part, the hubs are exceptionally durable and remarkably easy to service”.
