EC Wheels Carbon 50
Ultimate Aerodynamics without sacrificing handling.
Rims
The Venn Var 507 TCC road rim brake bicycle 50mm carbon rim is a result of our extensive experience with aerodynamics. The goal was to deliver a rim shape that is not only aerodynamic, but exceptionally stable in crosswinds.
What is the point of a wheel being aerodynamic if it is too scary to use as soon as there is a little bit of cross wind, or even in city traffic? The Venn Var 507 TCD carbon rim handles exceptionally well and achieves optimal aerodynamic performance with tires that inflate to 25-26mm width.
Hubs
EC Wheels Bitex hubs are competitively light, feature good size TPI bearings and good quality seals to keep the weather at bay.
The freehub features 6 Pawls working in teams of three against 48 engagement points, given you near instant pickup. The lightweight 7075 alloy freehub features anti bite strips to make sure the cassette does not bite into the splines of the freehub body.
Spokes
Sapim Cx-Ray bladed, aero profile.
The CX-Ray still receives the best results in fatigue testing of any spoke. Its unique strength and flexibility make the CX-Ray suitable for most bicycle disciplines. The middle section of the spoke is drawn then pressed in a special mould to form its specific profile. CX-Ray spokes are used by top bike racers and triathletes around the world. Even downhillers use them, recognizing their strength and flexibility. Special alloy treatment and sophisticated production make this all possible.
