Race 24
The Race24 are back!
These were a hit a few years ago until the last batch of rims were so light they couldn't handle the move to larger tyres and we were forced to stop using them. Now a new rim is here and they are SOLID.
Much testing over the last 12 months (indoors and out!) and they haven't faltered.
Built with Sapim CX-Rays and brass nipples for every hub option. 1495g +/- 3%
Both our in-house wheel tester and the local ex-Scottish champ commented:
"Perfect for an upgrade over standard wheels - transforms the bike"
"Much better feel than 'superlight' clinchers. Shimano C24 feel like spaghetti in comparison."
"They've got everything I'd be looking for in a hilly race rim-brake wheel and aren't going to fall to bits."
"The wind was howling and it just blew straight through them."
"Over the years my Hunts, Halo, Profile & Roval wheels fell apart - these are gonny be bombproof."
These rims have won Scottish National Criterium Champs.
