Do you need a great value set of aero road bike wheels?
Our FL55 wheelset might be the aero wheelset of your dreams then. Constructed using Toray T700 carbon fiber our FL55 aero rim is a work of wonder. Our engineers have worked hard on the carbon fiber layup and technical spec of this rim. You can run our wide rim tubeless or with tubes, whichever takes your fancy.
Our wide rim is also designed to match up with wider tires to help direct air around your wheel. Wider rims help to keep your aero wheelset feeling stable and will offer you predictable cornering. There is no point in having an aero wheel that doesn’t do corners.We have also taken this predictable and reliable feeling and applied it to the hubs we have fitted. We have gone with ever reliable Novatec hubs. The hubs we feel are so reliable that we can offer our Fast and Light aero road wheels with a two-year guarantee. They also allow us to keep the wheels affordable, we want everyone to be able to utilize the benefits of a quality set of aero wheels.
To attach the Novatec hubs to our Toray carbon fiber rims, we have used Sapim CX-Ray spokes. Sapim is a leading light in the spoke business. They have managed to create the perfect balance of lightweight to stiff spokes. Perfect for a set of wheels for a road bike.
All of this and the wheels are UCI certified, just in case you suddenly discover you should be racing in the pro ranks.
