pandapodium.cc/2026-crw-cs-series - All about the wheels.
When these wheels burst onto the scene two years ago, they blew everything else out of the water. Since then other brands have had time to catch up, and especially Farsports did a great job of bridging the gap to CRW. So, is this 2026 update enough to give CRW the crown back?

Disclaimer: I've been involved with the development of these wheels and my business Panda Podium is one of the main distributors for CRW, take everything I say with a pinch of salt! That said, we because the distributor for CRW because we love the product, and this 2026 version is just small tweaks to a great product. I've been riding these in prototype form for probably half a year or more so it's great to finally be able to share them with everyone.
