Deep Section Carbon Wheels

And therein lies the rub.

Deep section carbon wheels.

Deep section aero wheels offer some of the biggest speed gains you can find along with your helmet and clothing. In spite of their shallow rim roval says the profile is even more aero than the previous deeper section clx 40. The difference between basic training wheels and the best of this group can be as. Deep section carbon fiber wheels are no faster than their alloy shallow section counterparts at certain speeds.

Let s make a few things clear here. Deep section rims are built from carbon fiber because aluminum rims of equivalent height would be very heavy and could not be rolled into a circle without wrinkling. Some deep section wheels feature a carbon fairing placed over an aluminum rim. Plus due to the fact that deep wheels are almost always of carbon construction they tend to be much more expensive than a traditional.

These are heavier but are cheaper than a complete carbon rim owing to lower manufacturing and development costs. As my buddy chuck likes to say i don t know everything there is to know about cycling.
