Experience Unrivalled
Aerodynamic Performance
Now UCI Approved
Introducing our breakthrough in rim design: our new wave-shaped profile, engineered for ultimate performance. With a 23mm inner width and 4550mm or 6065mm rim profile, this rim achieves a unique balance, exceeding the capabilities of both traditional deep and shallow designs.
Experience the advantages:
Aerodynamic Superiority:
The innovative wave profile minimises flow separation and reduces drag, outperforming deeper rims in crosswinds and maximising aerodynamic efficiency.
Lightweight Agility:
Enjoy the nimble handling and responsiveness of a lightweight rim, surpassing the performance of shallower designs.
Uncompromising Stiffness and Power:
The optimised structure, combined with radially staggered lacing, enhances power transfer and delivers explosive acceleration.
This rim isn't just about speed; it's about control, responsiveness, and the confidence to push your limits. Dominate the road and experience the pinnacle of riding performance with our revolutionary wave-shaped rim.
Reduced Flow Separation:
The wave-profiled rim's alternating deep and shallow sections disrupt the airflow, preventing it from cleanly separating. This reduces turbulence and keeps the airflow attached to the rim longer, resulting in lower drag and improved aerodynamic performance.
Enhanced Crosswind Stability:
The unique shape of wave-profiled rims helps mitigate crosswinds' effects. The alternating sections create small pockets of lower pressure, which help to balance the forces acting on the wheel and improve stability in windy conditions.
Optimised Spoke Interaction: The design of wave-profiled rims, particularly when combined with radially staggered lacing, enables more efficient power transfer and improved wheel stiffness. The spoke angles are flattened by connecting the spokes to deeper rim sections, leading to better tension balance and a more responsive wheel.

Enhanced aerodynamics
Our new wave (Onda)-shaped profile, engineered for ultimate performance.
Forged in Switzerland
The DT Swiss 240 is an incredible hub, and with a weight of only 215g, it comes in at a very lightweight 215g. The new DT upgraded ratchet EXP system gives it an increased bearing distance, meaning the bearings last much longer, so less maintenance is required.
Verstatile
Sapim’s CX Rays are a premium aerodynamic, light-weight, spoke that is both flexible and strong.
