Alpha 55

Aero wheels no longer need you to have a long conversation with your bank manager. Our new Alpha 55 wheels might be the point at where you can afford high-quality deep section carbon fiber wheels. One ride of these wheels and you will never want to go back to standard box section wheels.
Our Alpha 55 rims are constructed using a mix of Toray T700 and T800 carbon fiber. We based our Alpha rim off our previous Fast and Light rim, which was constructed solely of T700 carbon fiber. People loved our FL series for being stiff and strong. We had to make sure we carried over those qualities over onto our tubeless ready Alpha series.
As our shape is proving to be super-fast on the road, especially with our 55mm deep rim, we have worked on our brake track design to make sure you can slow down safely. We raised our brake track’s heat tolerance from 240° to 300°.
To get you rolling up to speed, we have fitted Novatec F428SB-SL and A291SB-SL hubs. These hubs are sealed bearing and high precision. As anyone who has run Novatec hubs can tell you these hubs are also highly reliable.
To lace the Novatec hubs to your Alpha 55 rim, we have used aero Pillar spokes. Pillar spokes are great value and allow us to supply you a strong spoke on an affordable set of wheels.
We finished our Alpha 55 package off by bringing you the wheels with a two-year warranty. Not only do you get speed and reliability but you also get peace of mind.

Features

Wide Rim Tech

25mm rim wide creates a better, more stable support, while the shape of the tire and rim together creates regular, stable air flow, in short, more aerodynamics, less attrition. provides an ideal basis for 25/28mm tires, the sizes currently popular.

2-Way Clincher Tubeless. Tubes or No-Tubes

Use either traditional tires with tubes, or tubeless tires without tubes. Tubeless tires can provide lower rolling resistance and better protection from punctures.
