AERO VOLANT ROAD 8.6 FULL CARBON REAR WHEEL
Tubeless Ready Clincher - Rim Brake - Road Race - Front Wheel
Built for acceleration, speed, responsiveness and the tough British environment; the Aero Volant Road 86mm deep carbon front bike wheel defines the best of our 3rd Generation™ full carbon aero advanced road racing wheels. Built using the very latest in carbon technologies; the aerospace-grade resin ThermSet™ and unidirectional Toray full-carbon fibre are moulded into our latest CFD optimised Pro-Mach 2™ aerodynamic elliptical design, creating a technically superior carbon race rim on which to encompass the world's leading DT Swiss 350 racing wheel hub and Sapim aero spokes. We have strived for perfection and this road wheel is propelling us towards that perfection. This racing wheel is super light, super stiff, super strong and hand-built by Master Wheel-builders, a winning combination for a winning ride.
PURPOSE:
The super-fast Aero Volant 8.6 is a lightweight high-depth carbon racing wheel with outstanding stiffness and is aerodynamically designed as an out and out race day road wheel. The technically advanced Pro-Mach 2™ aerofoil shape reduces aerodynamic drag and is designed to cut through headwinds, mitigate side winds and help create maximum stability on all road surfaces. The 86mm deep full carbon Aero Volant rim coupled with the industry-leading DT Swiss 350 hub and Sapim CX-Ray or CX-Sprint aero spokes is design engineered for years and years of racing in all conditions. This wheel is at home winning club races and time track days, but its outstanding power transitional efficiency, can be critical when used for time trials, endurance events and ultra-distance cycling.
