Description

Designed for those targeting the polka dot jersey or the great mountain climbs, the Roval Alpinist CLX III are the lightest road wheels ever made by SPECIALIZED: just 1,131 grams, which is 134 grams less than the previous model.

Developed in collaboration with Arris, they feature aerodynamic spokes made from composite material, which are 20% stronger than steel spokes, and allow for a weight saving of OLTRE 100 grams per wheelset. The result? Record-breaking climbing performance — as demonstrated by Demi, who improved her time on the Tourmalet by 5 seconds.
