Hi, those who have these wheels, do you also have a kind of "scratch" on the "V" of "LEVANTE" side of wheels? I just got mine (brand new) and the rear has a strange scratch behind the gloss paint (or whatever it is, you cannot feel this scratch from outside)
See here https://imgur.com/a/GUhGn7c
There was also another small scratch on the rim.
It is very visible on the back wheel (pictures are of that one), but slightly visible on the front one as well, exactly the same spot. I also googled some pics of the wheels and all seem to have sime kind of "line" on the V from LEVANTE. Could be that this is from the machining, but mine is a bit more visible than I would like (almost looks like a crack)
Wrote an email to the seller and Campy as well...

As always, it depends on your location. The cheapest current price for Levante is 1000€, but for the Rapid Red Carbon it is 1200€. Both examples from big German shops.

What are the narrowest tires people are running on Levante wheels?
They're a really good price on bike24 at the moment and I am planning to spec them on a do-it-all bike build for my wife. It would be great to be able to take narrower tires for road-only days and the 38mm minimum in the manual seems conservative.

I have run Vittoria Terreno Dry 33mm, René Herse Stampede Pass 32mm and now I'm running Challenge Strada Bianca HTLR 36mm on my Levantes, without any problem. I know this is all forbidden by Campagnolo, but with the 25mm IC and hooks I've been totally confident with all mentioned tires. The wheels are fantastic.simbikotic wrote: ↑Sun Mar 10, 2024 9:25 pmWhat are the narrowest tires people are running on Levante wheels?
