Alpina Vs Kineo Wheels

I've had both Alpina and Kineo wheels on my bike. My personal preference is Kineo as I think their tubeless design is much better plus I just love their looks. However I have to say that Alpina customer service is excellent. I bought my Alpina wheels second hand and a few months later they developed a slow leak from both wheels. The Alpina agent talked with the factory and they agreed to repair my wheels free of charge, and at a time of my choosing. They were happy to wait till the end of the riding season to let me enjoy my bike (was only a slow leak). When I chose to send the wheels I just had to pay the shipping costs. Considering I was not the original owner that was a great deal. So I take my hat off to Alpina for this.

In fairness I should also point out that they were the old V1 model of the wheels, not the new V2 version. I actually sold the wheels to a forum member and I've not heard any bad things so I assume they are still going strong.

The Kineos don't lose any pressure at all...
Considering Kineo wheels but can’t decide on colour combos any photos ?
