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, & 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 & keeps weight as close to its rim-brake brethren as possible. & all the while, you get incredible brake modulation & 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. With this, Specialzied jumped headlong into Computational Fluid Dynamics computer modelling to arrive at various rim shapes that could make the CL 50 as fast & light as possible. It took a while, but Specialized narrowed the rim shape down to three contenders that were then CNC machined into rims, built into wheels, & put into the Specialized Win Tunnel. The result? A 50mm-deep, 1515-gram clincher wheelset thats race-ready & wallet-friendly. Features Rim Type: Carbon clincher, 2 Bliss-Ready Rim

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.

2019 Specialized Roval Traverse 38 SL Fattie 148 650 Carbon Wheels give you the space you need to run wider tyres. Having a 2.8", or high-volume, tyre mated to a narrow rim makes for a squirmy, poor handling experience. Lucky for you, the new age of traction, stability, & speed has arrived—and its name is the Traverse 38 SL Fattie 27.5. Along with light overall weight, stiffness, & durability, another top priority for the Traverse SL was ease of use. First off, Specialized got rid of the creaky straight-pull spokes & corrosion-prone alloy nipples. Next up, they have used 28 J-bend spokes, for both the front & rear wheels, that are all the same length—making it easy to find replacements if needed. & finally, they have engineered a new hub design, with a wider profile & higher flange to aid in overall stiffness. The 38-millimeter Traverse SL is already wider than most offerings. A 38-millimeter internal rim width that turns the Traverse 38 SL Fatties into descending machines. A wide internal rim width endows riders with a variety of advantages that are exemplified even more with plus-sized tires. The extra width allows for more tyre volume, translating into more supple ride qualities, & better support for the tyre, meaning that youll experience less "burping" when riding tubeless & a drastic increase in traction. The Zero Bead Hook design effectively eliminates the biggest weak spot found in traditional rims, & high-modulus carbon fibre keeps the weight down. & to further this theme, the wheels also include the Roval tubeless plug system, which sheds an additional 50 grams-per-wheel compared to a rim strip.
