The 36 Road Disc SL wheels deliver a balanced ride feel and confident handling, resulting in a lightweight performance wheelset that weighs just 1130g, making it an exceptionally light disc brake carbon wheelset built for everyday road riding.

This rim features a hooked rim bed because it is designed for road/allroad use. With the higher pressures used for those tires having a hooked rim more securely holds the tire in place in the event of hitting a pothole or extreme forces of cornering and sprinting.

  • Targets first

We set goals for stiffness, impact resistance, fatigue life, and serviceability — then we chase weight after those boxes are checked.

  • Rim architecture

The rim’s strength comes from shape, not just material. Spoke bed structure, bead walls, and local reinforcement are designed to handle tension and real-world hits.

  • Layup strategy

Every carbon ply has a job. We use fiber orientation and placement to put material where loads live — and remove it where it doesn’t. Aerospace grade carbon fiber is used in strategic areas to increase strength and impact resistance while allowing the weights to be minimized.

  • Dimensional control + QC

We inspect bead seat, ERD, and critical interfaces so every build starts true and stays that way.

  • Spoke and tension plan

Ultra-light wheels require disciplined tension strategy. We choose spokes for long-term stability — not just the lightest spec sheet. We choose nipples that help keep your wheels running true, yet allow for easy adjustment if you ever need.

  • Handbuilt, stress-relieved, re-tensioned

The build process matters as much as the parts. We use multiple tension cycles, stress relief, and final balance checks. Your wheels will remain running true.

  • Validation

Impact testing, fatigue testing, tire pressure testing. . . over and over again. Plus real riding on rough pavement/real gravel — because spreadsheets don’t win races.

  • Final inspection

Runout, dish, tension balance, hub function, and tubeless setup check — then it ships.


– Carbon Rims

Every cut and ply of carbon plays a story in how a rim responds. Aerospace grade carbon is used in strategic places for increased strength with bringing the rim weight down to just 310 grams

  • Grade 54 Hubs

    The new Grade 54 hubs are the most advanced hubs we’ve ever created. Weighing just 270 grams for the set, the hubs feature a ratchet drive system with 54 teeth and just 6.6 degrees of engagement

  • Enduro Bearings

    The Enduro ABEC 5 bearings provide exceptional precision and durability, ensuring that the hub operates smoothly under the most demanding conditions.

  • Handbuilt

    Every wheel goes through 5 different work centers, before being QCed for true, run out, and spoke tension. This ensures every wheel will keep running as true as the day you received them.
