Delve into the world of elite cycling performance with Specialized's Roval Rapide CLX II wheels. Synonymous with speed and efficiency, these wheels offer a Swiss army knife of capabilities to meet all your road riding needs.

No need to switch between climbing or time trial wheels, as the Roval Rapide CLX II integrates the aerodynamic benefit of a deep-section TT wheel with the agility and lightness of a climbing wheel. Approved for real-world riding, the ultra-efficient tubeless system optimises the bike's speed, handling, and responsiveness, putting you ahead of the pack.

Thoughtful engineering is evident in different rim shapes for the front and back wheel, significantly reducing drag and improving stability by 25% in windier conditions compared to 50mm rims. The Roval Rapide CLX II leaves no stone unturned when maximising your bike's performance.

The hooked design of the Roval Rapide CLX II accommodates pressures up to 110psi - great news for riders seeking maximum tyre retention, secure beading, and seamless fitting. Despite its robust capabilities, this wheelset represents an impressive weight saving in the industry.

Every wheel in the Roval Rapide CLX II range features special AeroFlange hubs, meticulously designed for aerodynamic advantage, superior strength, and low spoke weight. The addition of premium ceramic SINC bearings, along with the tried and tested durability of DT Swiss’ EXP freehub internals, make these wheels a wise investment for champion cyclists and recreational riders alike.
