Volk replicas found again
and I hate to bring it up, yet again, but if this offends you, Rota should offend you. It's literally only degrees of separation, there is no difference in what they are doing. Rota just had the smarts to scrub the lettering off.
I'm just sayin' and it's all I'm going to say.

It occurs to me that Volk engineered the TE37 to be as lightweight as possible, and that required forging to produce that design with those width of spokes.
If this is cast in the exact same dimensions (as it appears to be), I would not be putting my ride or my life in the hands of that.

The TE37 is not the lightest wheel ever made, not even by Volk. Volk does not set out to make the lightest wheels, but the strongest and most efficient.
Most of the Rotas I have ever seen fail, usually crack in the barrel area, although some have had fractured spokes, but they always claim it is from undue stress from road hazards.
whatever, this thread is not about Rota though, so let's not get this closed

Honestly, if they aren't selling them as Volks for the MSRP of Volks, why does it matter? Nobody that is actually going to buy a set of authentic Volks would even consider buying these. Volk isn't going to lose sales over stuff like this for that reason. If they claim affiliation with Volk, THEN it would be an issue for them to worry with.
I've seen the post on craigslist on those wheels and I don't know if they updated pictures or what but the one I saw doesn't say nothing that the real volk's say like MONOBLOCK,FORGED, RAYS its just plain no lettering inside the wheel.....here is the link....
