Still no carbon spokes like we saw on remcos bike at the tour... but a lot of nice add ons to these TEAM edition wheels. If you have any questions about these wheels I would be happy to help you out :)

@WheelBuilder_SA Месяц назад

Carbon is a terrible material to use for spokes, for a few reasons: - Measuring tension accurately isn't easy or practical. - They may handle tension well, but torsion and impact, not so much. Weight saving is marginal and longevity is very poor compared to steel.

When wheels like the CRWs, 9 Velos, Farsports, Light Bicycle, new Elites with the double-sided ratchet, etc, etc, etc exist... there is absolutely ZERO reason to be spending $3,800 on a wheelset. It's over.

@user-dz2rn1iq4l Месяц назад

It's not over. Specialized has no problem selling these wheels. If you think people who buy cheaper wheels are the same kind of people who buy these, you are just wrong. Plenty of other more expensive wheels exist without having all these extra sinc bearings and free hubs. Take a look at Scope wheels. Also many people prefer other name brand cheaper options than LB and Farsports for whatever reason.

@joris818 Месяц назад

You’ve got the inertia thing mixed up. What matters is how much the weight is removed from the centre of the wheel. It has nothing to do with the distance to the bottom bracket ;-) solid video though !

@GCPerformance18 Месяц назад

I meant the bb is the middle off the bike, and the hweels are on the outside, the weight is removed from the outside of the rim, which is huge, why would weight being removed from the center of hub matter more then outter most part, thats the part it takes the most to spool up, is it harder to roll a 50lb ball? or harderr to have a 50lb weight on a string and wind it around

@GCPerformance18 Месяц назад

@WheelBuilder_SA Месяц назад

Roval still don't believe in interlacing the spokes on their wheels? This is obviously done intentionally on their part but it makes no sense. When spokes are interlaced where they cross at the intersection closest to the rim, they brace against each other. This makes the entire wheel structure more stable and makes for a laterally stiffer, more robust and durable wheel.

@NathanDMeyer Месяц назад

What do you prefer instead? Or what is faster than this on an average road?

@justsomedude7556 Месяц назад

@GCPerformance18 yea, more and more you see minimums of safety on tubeless even for hooked. 28 on a hooked is my minimum and even that I am not a fan of. I have been running Pirelli P Zero Race TLRs 30s and they are very good, but have 32 and 35s on other road bikes and have been very happy.

@justsomedude7556 Месяц назад

@@NathanDMeyer Well I prefer something a little wider, 30 or above, but more of the safety concerns is due to pressure on the small tire width. Pirelli says not to run tubeless less than 28 on hookless, and while these rims are hooked...I still would not run a 28. The benefit of the wide tire is the ability to get more contact on the imperfect roads at lower pressures. I have several bikes and 28 is the most narrow, and that is only because it is an old bike and a 30 wont fit between the rim brakes. Other wise, I have been very happy on the 32 and even the 35's I am running. Plenty of speed, better grip and handling.
