Hey everyone,


I have a set of Roval CLX 32 clincher wheels that I am looking to offload, and I wanted to give anyone in the group first dibs, as is customary.

They weigh in at 1280 grams, which is stupid light, even for a full carbon clincher. The spoke count is 16/24, and the rim width is about 29mm eternal, 22 or 21mm internal (makes 25mm tires have more volume, so they increase to about 27mm or so).

I’ve ridden them off and on since September, but between knee issues, getting a mountain bike, and being sick, I’d say they only have about a month or two of gimp riding on them, so they’re in fantastic condition.

Overall, they’re pretty superb; the braking is the best I have experienced apart from Enve or Zipp’s textured brake tracks, and the stiffness of the rear is solid (I get picky about rear wheel stiffness when out of the saddle, and I’ve never experienced brake rub or significant flex with this set!). They spin up extremely quickly, so they make the bike feel really responsive, while the wide rim gives you a very “planted” feel. 

I am just not doing much racing this year, and I figure someone on the team might be able to put them to better use!

Photos are down below, free hub body is immaculate, and I could only find one very minor scrape on the front wheel, comes with brake pads and skewers for $900.

Let me know if you’re interested!

Hi Eric!
I'm wondering if you are still selling the wheelset?
