SET DI RUOTE SPECIALIZED ROVAL RAPIDE CL III

The Roval Rapide CL III wheels elevate aerodynamics to a new level, inheriting the DNA of the CLX III and delivering high performance for racing and road training. Designed to maximize speed in every situation, they combine differentiated profiles between the front and rear wheel to achieve the perfect balance of aerodynamics, weight, and control.

The front wheel, with a 51 mm profile, is optimized to reduce air resistance where it matters most, improving efficiency at high speeds. The rear wheel, with a 48 mm profile, weighs 35 grams less than the previous generation, offering quicker acceleration and greater stability.

The FlatStop heel design increases puncture resistance by 39% compared to category standards, ensuring greater reliability both in races and in training. The result is a pair of wheels that are fast, robust, and ready for any route.

The DT Swiss 350 EXP hubs with a 36-tooth Ratchet system ensure quick engagement, smoothness, and great long-term reliability. With a total weight of 1,555 grams, the Rapide CL III represent a high-performance and accessible aero solution, ideal for those seeking speed and versatility.
