Its legendary responsiveness ensures every watt of effort is translated directly to the road, giving riders absolute confidence in sprints, climbs and high-speed corners.

Racing Zero wheels feature aero aluminium spokes, aluminium nipples and oversized hub flanges to maximise lateral and torsional stiffness. The front hub combines carbon and aluminium for reduced weight, while the rear hub is all-aluminium for durability under high loads.

The USB ceramic bearing system, paired with an adjustable cup-and-cone design, ensures long-lasting smoothness, low rolling resistance and precise adjustability.
