Product Description
[GRILLE=3930] Carbon Wheels Ekoi - Performance, Lightness, and Aerodynamics Combined Designed for demanding cyclists, these carbon wheels embody the perfect balance between performance and reliability. With their 50mm profile, the full carbon rims offer optimized aerodynamics while maintaining a reduced weight thanks in part to the 100% carbon aero spokes (1350 g per pair / front wheel 610 g / rear wheel 740 g) record weight ideal for accelerations and climbs. Tubeless compatible (tires from 25 to 38 mm), they allow riding with lower pressures, thus reducing rolling resistance while improving comfort on all types of roads. The carbon spokes VONOA ST SUPER AERO are not only ultra-light: their aerodynamic shape helps to improve air penetration while offering excellent lateral stiffness for maximum power transfer. Paired with aluminum nipples, they allow for easy repairs. [GRILLE=3785] [GRILLE=3786] The hubs incorporating "straight pull" technology ensure an even distribution of tension, increasing wheel durability. Their 36-tooth ratchet system offers an engagement angle of only 6 degrees for instant accelerations and a dynamic feel with every pedal stroke. The high-performance ENDURO BEARING(R) sealed bearings guarantee lasting smoothness, even in harsh weather conditions. [GRILLE=3787] [GRILLE=3788] The Ekoi carbon wheels are the perfect choice for cyclists seeking speed, explosiveness, and reliability. Whether for competition, sporty rides, or long distances, they will provide you with a decisive advantage with every turn of the wheel. [GRILLE=3789] Our rims feature a "Raw Finish" This means a treatment without the unnecessary addition of decorative fiber layers or opaque paint. It is therefore normal to perceive some UD (unidirectional) carbon fiber overlaps in the light, even under the finishing varnish layer. This is not a manufacturing defect, but a fully assumed choice to prioritize the lightness of the rim. This raw finish is now very common for wheels, for 100% carbon shoe soles, but also for frames and other components of very prestigious bikes. Be aware that it is technically possible to achieve a different visual appearance by adding finishing weaves (2k, 4k, 8k, etc.), which weigh down the wheel without completely masking the overlaps, or a colored paint/varnish completely covering the fiber, but this results in additional weight contrary to the lightness objective that we prioritize.
