LIGHT, AERO RIMS
Light, Aero rims
Light rims improve acceleration and climbing performance - they also improve the handling and overall agility of the bike, bringing the ride to life.
Our Elite rims feature a toroidal aero profile to cut through the air.
They measure 25mm at the brake track, widening to a maximum of 27mm.
Easy Fit Tubeless Ready
It's easy to fit popular tyres such as Contintental's GP5000 TL with just a standard track pump - no special tools required and you don't have to fight for days either!
Suitable for a wide range of tyre sizes
Elite rims are ideal for today's popular road tyre sizes:
They measure 18mm internally - perfect for 25mm to 33mm tyres for road and cx use but they'll take wider tyres too!
SUPER SMOOTH HUBS
Our all new carbon hubs benefit from a carbon shell, increasing stiffness
Best of all, they use 'oversized' bearings - normally only found in far more expensive wheel sets.
Bigger bearings are far smoother and last much longer than smaller bearings
Bigger bearings are far smoother and last much longer than smaller bearings
And because they use the long established star ratchet design, made famous by DT Swiss, they share the same tools - so if you ever need to replace the inner bearing (which is rare...) your local bike shop or mechanic should have the tool to hand.
COMPETITOR COMPARISON
FRONT HUB BEARINGS
On the left hand side you can see the size of the bearings used by some of our competitors.
The differences are substantial and easy to see
FREEHUB BEARINGS
Freehub bearings are often prone to wear - and it's often not cost effective to replace them unless you have the right tools and are prepared to do the job yourself.
Even our freehub uses a larger bearing than standard - keeping things moving smoothly and saving you time and money in the future.
SPOKES & NIPPLES
wheels are individually built with time and care, right here in the UK
Spokes are Pillar PSR XTRA - a straight pull, bladed spoke, triple butted to provide extra reinforcement where it counts.
These are laced with self-locking nipples for added security
But it's not just about the parts themselves - the wheels are individually built with time and care, right here in the UK
