The light weight frame has been constructed from our FACT 9r carbon fibre. Its stiffness levels are also off the charts & compared to the sl 4 iteration of yesteryear youll experience a whole new faster & more efficient geometry. Through some sophisticated engineering however weve managed to keep the same fit feel & position that weve all come to love from the sl 4 & kept it consistent throughout the size-range with our rider-first engineered construction. Of course youre probably thinking "get on to the suspension thing up front." we call it future shock & essentially its a piston in the head tube with 20mm of travel. We developed this technology in partnership with McLaren applied technologies & the result of this are a host of drastic performance improvements namely in the vertical compliance department. Without giving a physics lecture we found that focusing on vertical compliance instead of fork splay meant that we could improve smoothness speed & comfort in one fell swoop. & of all the bikes that weve tested with our rolling efficiency model the Roubaix outperforms anything on the market. Lastly we specd the Roubaix Sport with 105 11-speed mechanical shifting hassle-free Tektro Spyre mechanical disc brakes & DT r 470 disc wheels that have been cased in our turbo Pro 28mm tyres. Features our rider-first engineered design that ensures every frame size has the same legendary responsiveness & smooth ride quality that youd expect from a roubaix. The FACT 9r frameset holds its own with our highest-end carbon offerings, with the ideal blend of light overall weight & targeted stiffness, while the all-new future shock "suspension" system at the cockpit delivers a revolutionary degree of comfort & control. Dt r 470 disc wheels feature reliable, sealed cartridge hubs, & 24 front & rear spokes that keeps weight low & durability high. Shimano S 105 shifting & hydraulic disc brakes ensure reliable shifting & stopping power in a variety of conditions. ...

The Roval CLX 32 front wheel is one of the lightest carbon clinchers ever made but this doesnt come at the expense of fundamental performance. Instead painstaking engineering & lab testing helped us achieve a 550-gram wheel thats tough enough for cyclocross racing yet light enough for the demands of a gc climber. The low inertia & ample stiffness help the wheel accelerate & change direction on a dime. We didnt skimp on aerodynamic benefits either despite this wheels low rim profile. The CLX 32 was engineered in cfd around a 26mm tire shape & honed in our very own win tunnel in order to be as aerodynamic as some rims almost twice its depth. Meanwhile the tubeless compatible 21mm wide inner rim width better supports a tire for increased comfort & stability in corners & on descents. Lastly the wheels Roval aero hubs & ceramicspeed bearings to complete the speedy ensemble. Truly the CLX 32 ushers in a new era of lightweight performance road wheels. ...

When we set out to create the CLX 50 disc we had clear goals in mind create wheels that are 45 to 55mm deep 2bliss ready aerodynamically optimized ultra-wide & around 1400 grams. This meant that theyd have to borrow some weight savings techniques that we developed for the CLX 32 while taking some aero guidance from the CLX 64 if we were going to create what we like to call the unicorn wheel." we implemented every lightweight trick in the book without sacrificing anything to durability. & from there we studied different wheel depths ultimately deciding that meeting our strict weight & stiffness targets would be a big gamble with something too deep which is where 50mm was born from. After the depth was determined we jumped headlong into computational fluid dynamics computer modeling to arrive at various rim shapes that could make the CLX 50 as fast as possible. It took a while but we narrowed the rim shape down to three contenders that were then cnc machined into rims built into wheels & put into our win tunnel. In the tunnel we tested every wheel ours & the competitions with a 24c (measuring ~26mm wide) specialized S-Works turbo tire inflated to 100 psi as tires can drastically affect performance. Testing wheels by themselves not on a bike is often seen as malpractice but in our years of experience the numbers show that the deltas between bike & wheel & wheel alone to be consistent. After finding the most optimized rim shape that supported our svelte weight requirements we opted to lace the rims to our aero flange (af) hub which features the legendary ceramicspeed bearings & a 12x 100mm thru-axle via 16 DT swiss aerolite spokes. Now it was time for final testing validation. The result? A 50mm-deep 1415-gram clincher wheelset thats not only ~100 grams lighter than the competitions similar depth wheel but is also measurably faster in every conceivable test than every wheel in its category ...

2019 Specialized Roval Control 29 148 Carbon Mountain Bike Wheels are designed to be an affordable carbon wheel. Utilizing many of the same techniques used in the development of the SL iteration of the Control 29, these wheels provide the lightweight XC performance you need at a more attainable price. Specialized have tried to keep these wheels as close to their SL brethren as possible. Starting with the rim, they have kept their renowned Zero Hook Bead that allows for continuous fibre layup across the sidewall & rim bed. They have been paired with a wide 25-millimeter internal profile that makes it resilient to impact & creates a tyre profile that’s conducive to low rolling resistance & incredible traction. On the trail, these technical traits translate to a wheelset that many XC riders have grown to love—quick accelerations on punchy climbs, swift stopping that lets you leave braking till the last second, & unprecedented reliability. Combine this with the easy to set up our 2 Bliss Ready system & you have a reliable XC wheelset that’s as easy to climb on as it is to work on. To go along with the rim, the wheelset, uses tried & tested DT Swiss 350 Classic hubs (15x 110mm thru-axle front / 12x 148mm thru-axle rear) h&-laced with 28 DT Swiss Competition Race spokes.

2019 Specialized Roval CL 50 Disc Wheelset

The Specialized CL 50 Disc Wheelset has been designed to fill a gap in the market for a truly race-ready, affordable carbon wheelset. The CL 50 Disc Wheelset uses the Specialized CLX 50 Disc rim with DT Swiss Competition round spokes, Specialized Aero Flange Disc hubs with DT Swiss 350 internals, and steel bearings to deliver you an exceptional wheelset at a more than accessible price. Why disc you ask? With Specialized disc-specific rims, you not only ditch the brake track, but you get a stronger, more impact-resistant rim. This comes at the hands of a disc-specific carbon layup that optimizes stiffness and keeps weight as close to its rim-brake brethren as possible. And all the while, you get incredible brake modulation and power in all conditions. Sharing rims with the CLX 50s,
the CL 50s feature many of the benefits as their higher-end siblings. Even though the CL 50 is similar in weight to many wheels in the “lightweight” category, aerodynamics came at the forefront of the development.
