Road Wheels - Carbon Disc Brake

WE HAVE OUTDONE OURSELVES AND NOW HAVE OUR LIGHTEST ROAD WHEEL AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER. THEY ARE MADE TO ORDER SO THEY TAKE ABOUT 4 WEEKS. BASED ON OUR POPULAR ROL D'HUEZ ALLOY, THESE CARBON WHEELS ARE LIGHT, STIFF AND RESPONSIVE. PERFECT FOR CLIMBING - AND NAMED AFTER MOUNT BLUE SKY, A 28 MILE CLIMB IN COLORADO. 

The wheels are hand built in Colorado.

OVERVIEW

Let's just cut to the chase - the rims weigh approximately 270 grams - they are light! The ROL hubs are light - weighing just 385 grams for the set. We will let you decide the weight of the spokes.

This wheel set is made for climbing and lightweight performance. It is also stiff and responsive.

The Blue Sky is made from Toray T700 & T800 Premium Carbon Fiber. It has an internal width of 23 mm and an external width of 30 mm which allows a wide profile for a road tire to optimize traction for cornering and allow for a nice aero profile to cut the wind. The depth of the rim is 27 mm. The Blue Sky is built for tires 25-52 mm wide. 

The Blue Sky is a 24 spoke count wheel for both front and rear. They are laced to ROL CLD hubs. You will choose between a lightweight double butted or bladed spoke. The bladed spokes are lighter, and the double butted are stronger. For durability, we build all of our wheels with brass spokes. 

The ROL CLD hubs are sealed bearings with a 6-pawl mechanism. They ROL smooth and quiet. They are available with Shimano, SRAM or Campagnolo freehubs.

The wheels are available in a standard 12x100/12x142 axle, however other configurations are available. Just email tom@rolwheels.com if you need something different.

We can also do different hubs, just email us for a quote.

OVERVIEW

This is a great all-around wheel for all types of riding. The C45's have been popular for road riding and racing, time trials and triathlons, gravel and cyclocross. This carbon wheelset is fast, strong and comfortable. The C45 uses a mid-depth rim: it's light enough to accelerate and climb, while its aerodynamics make you feel like you have an added gear at race speeds.

The C45 measures 28mm at its widest point - a bit wider than most to improve the tire's aerodynamics and widen its contact patch for better handling. You'll get more out of your chosen tires with a wider rim.

Premium Sapim Race Spokes are double butted and provide a combination of lightweight and strength.  The brass Sapim Secure Lock nipples work great, are more durable and hold up better to corrosion than standard alloy nipples.

Most hub configurations available. Please ask if you have any questions.
