How We Shifted the Aero Paradigm
The Fastest Just Got Lighter.
Roval Aero Composite Spokes by Arris help cut 215g for a 1,305g wheelset.
The Speed of Control
51mm rim up front where 90% of the aero gains are, and a light 48mm rear for blistering acceleration.
39% More Force to Flat
FlatStop bead hooks—widest on the market—disperse impact and need 39% more force to flat.
Everything You Thought You Knew About Wheels Was Wrong
Conventional wisdom says aero wheels always have a deeper rear, but why when 90% of aero gains come from the front? The Rapide CLX III flips the script with a 51mm front and 48mm rear for max aerodynamics, acceleration, handling, resulting in the fastest all-around race wheelset we’ve ever made. Win Tunnel tested and race proven with the fastest riders in the World Tour.
