The Rapid Red 700C are the wheels that will ensure that you cross the landscape quickly and have fun doing it.

REACTIVITY

From the asymmetric carbon rim design optimizing tension, the light & tough non drilled rim bridge laced with 28 straight pull spokes to an adjustable cup & cone bearings hub, all the elements work as one to amaze with a 1490-gram wheelset designed for gravel

S-Shape PROFILE

Lightness and reactivity are guaranteed by the S-Shape asymmetrical profile carbon rim.

This technology improves the balance between the tension of the spokes, decreasing the difference in the dish angle between the spokes on both sides of the wheel.

The optimised balance ensures long term performance levels. Moreover the unique shape of the rim profile increases stiffness by 2.5% compared to a traditional U-shaped profile.

CUP & KONE BEARINGS

As far as the hubs are concerned, we have opted for a straight-pull setup to optimise weights and obtain the perfect radial assembly of the spokes.

By creating the holes for the nipples directly in the mould and perfectly angled with the hub, thanks also to the S-Shape technology, we achieve the optimal alignment with the hub.

Last but not least, the cup and cone bearings guarantee exceptional smoothness and allow you to check for any play. Moreover the performance can be further enhanced with a replacement kit of ceramic coated bearings.

2-Way Fit TUBELESS

To achieve the maximum performance with tubeless tyres, the Rapid Red Carbon feature a tubeless-specific non-drilled bridge: 2-Way Fit.

This practical, reliable and weight saving solution lets you fit tubeless tyres without rim tape. The non-drilled bridge has a C-Lux Finish, a mirror-like finish that makes it easier to install the tyre.

The wheel assembly is completed with Mo-Mag technology, which uses a simple and ingenious solution to seat the nipple on the rim hole with a magnet.
