700C Carbon Track Wheelset – 3/5 Spoke Clincher TT Road Wheels

Aerodynamics Is the Marginal Gain That Isn't Marginal at All

At race pace, aerodynamic drag is the single largest force working against you. Your position, your kit, your helmet — all of it matters. But nothing delivers aerodynamic advantage quite as dramatically as your wheels. A deep-section carbon spoke wheel doesn't just look fast. It fundamentally changes the way air flows around your drivetrain, reducing drag in a way that translates directly into speed — without asking anything more from your legs.

The problem most cyclists face is that genuinely fast wheels are genuinely expensive. The carbon spoke wheelsets used by professional track and time trial riders carry price tags that put them out of reach for the vast majority of performance-focused cyclists. This 700C Carbon Track Wheelset changes that equation — delivering the aerodynamic profile, the carbon construction, and the visual impact of a professional-grade spoke wheel at a price that makes performance accessible.

Why Carbon Spoke Wheels Are the Fastest Wheels You Can Ride

Conventional spoked wheels, however well-built, create turbulence. Each individual spoke cuts through the air and generates drag. Multiply that across 24 or 32 spokes spinning at race speed and the aerodynamic penalty is significant. Carbon spoke wheels — with 3 or 5 structural spokes replacing the conventional spoke array — eliminate that turbulence almost entirely. The result is a wheel that slips through the air with dramatically less resistance, allowing you to maintain higher speeds for the same power output.

On a flat time trial course or a velodrome track, the difference between a conventional wheel and a carbon spoke wheel is measurable in seconds per kilometre. At race distances, those seconds accumulate into meaningful time gaps. This is why professional track cyclists and time trialists have used carbon spoke wheels as standard equipment for decades.

3K Carbon Construction – Matt or Glossy Finish

The rim and spoke structure are built from 3K carbon fibre — a weave pattern that balances stiffness, strength, and weight with exceptional efficiency. 3K carbon is the standard used in high-performance cycling components because it delivers the rigidity needed for efficient power transfer without the brittleness of stiffer weave patterns. The result is a wheel that accelerates quickly, holds speed efficiently, and responds precisely to every pedal stroke.

Available in both 3K Matt and 3K Glossy finishes, you can choose the aesthetic that suits your build. The matt finish delivers a stealthy, understated look that suits modern race builds. The glossy finish catches the light and delivers the visual drama that carbon spoke wheels are known for.

Clincher Rim – Compatible With Standard Road Tyres

The clincher rim design means these wheels are compatible with standard road tyres and inner tubes — no specialist tubular tyres, no gluing, no complex setup. Fit your preferred road tyre, inflate, and ride. The 23mm rim width accommodates tyres from 23mm to 28mm, giving you flexibility to run the tyre width that suits your riding conditions and comfort preference.

The 6.5mm valve hole diameter is compatible with standard Presta valves, and the 24H spoke hole count provides the structural integrity needed for road and track use.

Available Configurations

This wheelset is available in multiple spoke configurations — T01 (88mm), T02 (3-spoke front), T02 rear, T03 (5-spoke front), T03 rear, T04 front, T04 rear, and T05 — allowing you to build the exact front/rear combination that suits your event and course profile. Note: each SKU represents a single wheel. Purchase two to complete a wheelset.
