Vel’s meticulously handcrafted 50 RL Carbon Tubeless Disc Brake Wheelset offers a potent combination of speed and efficiency, presenting a notable upgrade from standard wheels. With an internal width exceeding 20mm, these wheels seamlessly complement wider, contemporary tires, delivering robust sidewall support and allowing for lower pressures to enhance comfort and grip. The aerodynamic design effectively cuts through the wind, minimizing drag without compromising stability in crosswinds. The straight pull Pillar Wing spokes contribute to precise steering and efficient power transfer.
The Vel RE aluminum hubs incorporate sealed bearings for smooth operation and extended durability, while the Center Lock disc fitments ensure secure and reliable disc rotor mounting. The rear hub boasts a rapid 102-tooth engagement ring with six pawls, resulting in instantaneous acceleration upon applying power. The rims come pre-fitted with tubeless tape, and the inclusion of tubeless valves simplifies the conversion to tubeless-ready tires. Alternatively, these rims can also accommodate traditional clincher tires and inner tubes if preferred.
