Classic 50mm Carbon Fiber Wheelset for Road Bikes

The carbon fiber composite material used for the wheels is Toray T700, known for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio. The brake surface is made of basalt, providing reliable and consistent braking performance. The rims feature a classic unidirectional (UD) matte finish, contributing to a refined aesthetic.

Regarding the wheel dimensions, the size is 700C, with a rim depth of 50mm and an outer width of 25mm. The inner rim width measures 18mm, allowing for a tubeless setup.

The hubs are Novatec 271 models, featuring a black color scheme. They utilize J-bend spoke patterns and are equipped with sealed bearings - two in the front hub and four in the rear hub. The front hub has a 9x100mm old (O.L.D.) and 20-hole configuration, while the rear hub has a 10x130mm O.L.D. and 24-hole setup.

The spokes are Aero Spokes in a black finish. The spoke tension is meticulously calibrated, with the front wheel at 90kgf, the rear drive side at 130kgf, and the rear non-drive side at 80kgf. The front wheel has a 20-hole lacing pattern, while the rear wheel features a 2X cross lacing with 24 holes.

The nipples are made of black alloy, providing a harmonious aesthetic.

In terms of weight limits and recommended usage, the maximum recommended rider weight is 130kg/286lbs. The maximum recommended tire pressure is 125psi/8.6bar, and the suggested tire width range is 700Cx25 or 700Cx28.

The weight of the 50mm/25mm wheelset, excluding the quick-release skewers, is 1565g±50g per pair.

The package includes the wheelset, rim tape, skewers, brake pads, and extra spokes and nipples.

Carbon fiber-reinforced wheels offer several advantages. They are lightweight yet exceptionally strong, providing excellent impact absorption performance. This can enhance speed and reduce physical fatigue for the rider, as the wheels can dampen the impact from the road surface. Additionally, carbon fiber composites exhibit remarkable resistance to acid and alkali corrosion, ensuring the longevity of the wheels.

The 50mm deep clincher rim design with a basalt braking surface and a classic UD matte finish gives the wheels a sleek, wind-cutting profile, improving cruising ability. The specialized spoke weaving pattern enhances wheel stability and stiffness, while each spoke is meticulously calibrated to prevent yaw issues.

The high-performance hubs are compatible with a wide range of modern groupsets, including Shimano 8/9/10/11-speed systems. All Superteam wheels undergo rigorous testing and inspection, meeting UCI approval and EN standards, and are backed by a 2-year warranty.

The carbon fiber composite material's unique matrix structure provides exceptional safety characteristics. When impacted, visible cracks may appear, but even if a small number of fibers are broken, the load will be quickly redistributed to the unbroken fibers, allowing the wheel to retain most of its strength and ensuring a safe riding experience.
