Maximum speed and control

Experience unparalleled speed and precision with the Specialized Rapide CLX II front wheel. This wheel is specifically designed for serious riders who demand performance. It combines the aerodynamic advantages of a time trial wheel with the lightweight of a climbing wheel, resulting in a wheel that offers speed and agility, regardless of the terrain.

Advanced aerodynamics and stability

Premium bearings and hubs

The aerodynamically optimized AeroFlange hubs are equipped with ceramic SINC bearings. This technology ensures reduced friction and longer lifespan, while the internal EXP hub gear from DT Swiss guarantees legendary durability and smooth transitions.
