KEY FEATURES_

Weight

The consequence of the fanatical attention to detail is an outstandingly light 964-gram wheelset weight. Your acceleration and climbing will be super-charged. There are no other wheels specifically designed for the demands of British Hill Climbs, that deliver like the Hill Climb SL.

UD Carbon Spokes

Incredibly strong (achieving over 450kgf per spoke) TaperLock UD carbon spokes offering 30% increase in stiffness against steel ones. Only 2.7g per spoke. Due to the TaperLock technology, these spokes can be trued easily using a spoke key from within the rim bed.

Rims

Ultralight but robust 30mm-deep wheelset that offers a 26mm width, ideal for modern width tubular tyres capable of providing the traction needed to fly up steep hills, and the strength required to get back down safely. Disc-specific tubular profile.

H_Ratchet UD SL Hubs

Providing strength and enhanced power transfer, meaning more of your power pushing you forwards. 40-tooth ratchet drive offers 9-degree engagement with pop out end caps for easy serviceability and a drilled out high-strength axle and freehub body (Shimano HG) for further weight reduction.
