Perhaps the most important speed upgrade you can make to any modern road bike. The Selcof 55 Carbon Rim Wheelset is aerodynamic, strong, and lightweight. 55mm rim depth offers high speed, watt saving versatility. The deep section 28mm external wide U-profile rim massively reduces aerodynamic drag across multi yaw angles, whilst minimising crosswind feedback. Lightweight for effortless climbing performance. A wide internal 21mm rim width allows for wider tyres and rounder tyre profiles, resulting in better handling and reduced rolling resistance.
The rims are constructed using only premium Japanese made Toray T700/T800 carbon fibre. Unidirectional sidewalls, 3K weave rim bed and spoke eyelets result in an extremely strong, vibration dampening, yet actively responsive wheel. High heat resistant compound brake track disperses heat and prevent reduced braking performance. Tubeless ready out the box, pre fitted with quality tubeless tape and supplied with tubeless valves.
High performance forged and CNC machined straight pull hubs roll incredibly fast and maintain speed with ease. Reduced lateral flex gives optimum power transfer. Precision machining and Japanese quality bearings offer incredible weather sealing and durability. The 6 pawl freehub engages with 36 tooth ratchet hub shell for ultra-fast acceleration, without affecting non pedalling resistance.
Hand built with Premium Sapim CX-Ray Aero bladed straight pull spokes, widely regarded as the best spoke available. Amazingly lightweight with unrivalled fatigue resistance. We only build with Sapim’s premium corrosion proof brass nipples. Accepting a slight weight penalty over aluminium nipples but removing the inherent risks of corrosion prone and more brittle aluminium. Ride with confidence through the winter, and we think you will agree the few additional grams are worth it.
