Overview
The C5.0T have been lightened even further for 2013. They are now at a paltry 1235g/ pair, making them one of the lightest traditionally built wheelsets straight out of the box. The wheels retain a 22mm width making them optimised for 22mm wide tubular tyres, creating a smooth transition with most tubular racing tyres. C5.0Ts are also now UCI approved and on the list of approved wheels, having passed all crash tests with flying colours. This makes the wheels not only light, but stiff and durable.
These wheels are built for speed. At their rim depth and shape, these are ideally suited to fast rides and races as they hold high speeds easily due to their aerodynamic qualities. Spinup is also quick because of the lightweight rims which reduce rotational weight. These are the best choice of wheelset for road racing and triathlons where a mix of lightweight and aerodynamics are essential for winning.
Our Prodigy wheels feature our own SOUL PRODIGY hubs which weight 270g/pair, and use only 1 spoke length for the entire wheelbuild. The SOUL hubs feature a smoother freewheel design with 2 sets of 3 simultaneously engaging pawls and 2 sealed bearings front and 4 sealed bearings rear.
Fully artisan crafted and handbuilt with equal spoke tensions. Spoke threads are prepared before assembly to prevent spoke binding and seizing. All spokes are stress relieved a few times during build process. This is the ultimate wheelset if pure speed is the goal.
