<h1>Rims</h1><i>Using an adaptive filament winding process, which varies thickness and orientation across the rim, these rims achieve a very light weight and excellent transmission of force from the spoke to the rest of the rim.

Re:New Grading

RE:NEW wheels have been graded into three categories:

NO Grade (30% OFF) - As New - you won't be able to tell they have been ridden.

Grade A (40% OFF) - Light use - Slight cosmetic marks on the wheels.

Grade B (50% OFF) - Used - It may have cosmetic marks to the hub or rim and will show signs of use - they have been serviced and checked by our master wheel builders and will provide many more miles of use.

The Purpose _

The Purpose _

With up to a 30.16% reduction in lateral flex over equivalent steel spoked wheelsets, the 50 UD Carbon Spoke wheels have been engineered to provide you a significant increase in stiffness as well an impressively low weight.

Using an innovative construction method, the 50 UD Carbon Spoke wheelset offers carbon spokes that are held purely mechanically, with no bonding required. We call this TaperLock, and it allows for carbon spokes that can be trued and maintained just like a normal steel spoke. Plus the TaperLock UD Carbon spokes are incredibly strong achieving over 450kgf (kilograms force per spoke) maximum tensile strength, this compares to leading steel spokes wich only reach 300 kgf. The innovative filament wound rims feature spoke area reinforcement, which creates strength where you need it and saves you vital grams everywhere else.

Note

Please note these are refurbished wheels and some specifications may vary. These wheels have been inspected by our expert wheel builders and they come with our 3 year warranty as found on our new wheel products.

KEY FEATURES_

<h1>Rims</h1><i>Using an adaptive filament winding process, which varies thickness and orientation across the rim, these rims achieve a very light weight and excellent transmission of force from the spoke to the rest of the rim. The process also provides additional material to create high strength at the spoke areas while minimising unnecessary weight between the spokes. They are wide at 26mm (19mm int.) which creates a great tyre profile, resulting in excellent grip and lower rolling resistance.</i>

Rims

Tested in the Alps to ensure the wheels are put through their paces on long, steep and fast descents. Smart spoke hole reinforcement. Griptec friction brake-track with 3K reinforcement for excellent braking and durability.

<h1>Spokes</h1><i>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.</i>

UD Carbon Spokes 

Ultra-high strength TaperLock UD carbon spokes, offering 30% increase in stiffness against equivalent steel-spoked wheels.

<h1>Hubs</h1><i>Carbon spoke optimised TaperLock SPRINT hubs add strength and enhance power transfer meaning all your force pushes you forwards. Large 15mm diameter hub axles for sprinting and out-of-saddle climbing responsiveness. Circular dropout interface steps add extra stiffness.</i>

CeramicSpeed Bearings

The 50 UD Carbon Spoke will come fully equipped with CeramicSpeed's industry-leading hybrid ceramic bearings, even in the freehub body. The CeramicSpeed Balls feature unparalleled impact strength, smoothness, roundness and brittleness.
