Specialized Rapide CLX II Front & Rear Wheels

The Specialized Rapide CLX II Unpacked are brand-new, never-used wheels — original and of course with warranty — removed from complete new bikes and therefore lacking their original specific box; because of this, they are offered at a much more competitive price.

They are Specialized's flagship and represent the pinnacle of innovation in carbon road wheels, combining superior aerodynamics with extraordinary lightness. Successfully introduced in World Tour competitions in 2020, these wheels have dominated races with their exceptional performance.

The Rapide CLX II were designed with distinct profiles for the front and rear wheels, optimizing aerodynamic penetration and significantly reducing air resistance compared to traditional 65mm wheels. Additionally, their ability to maintain stability in windy conditions is improved by 25% compared to 50mm rims.

This wheelset features advanced tubeless technology that not only increases efficiency but also ensures unparalleled handling. The Rapide CLX II bead retention system allows for easy tire installation and a maximum pressure of up to 110 psi, offering a safe and responsive riding experience.

Built with Rapide CLX carbon rims for disc brakes and tubeless-ready, these wheels are equipped with AeroFlange hubs optimized for aerodynamic excellence, and DT Swiss SINC ceramic bearings within DT Swiss 180 mechanisms featuring the Ratchet EXP system.

Weighing only 1,520g per pair, the Rapide CLX II are among the lightest and strongest wheels on the market, exceeding current durability standards by almost twofold.

These wheels are not only a high-quality component for cycling enthusiasts but a true investment to significantly improve road performance. Hand-assembled with care and precision, the Specialized Rapide CLX II are ready to take you faster and farther, with unprecedented control and safety.
