Description:
The new SC45 evolves the concepts of previous versions and bring the latest version of VISION rims, also used in the METRON range, but with more classic and less extreme construction solutions. In particular, the carbon rim with an aerodynamic profile, available with a depth of 45 or 60mm, features a 21mm internal width with hook to achieve maximum efficiency with tubeless tires ranging from 28 to 32mm. The 24 aerodynamic spokes with a 2:1 cross are laced onto direct-pull hubs. At the rear, the freehub is of the classic pawl type but in an improved version, without bearing preload adjustment but with pressure caps, to make the wheels more reliable and maintenance friendly. Our technicians have conducted in-depth tests on the road and in the laboratory to refine the construction of the entire system, which now results in significantly higher stability and performance, both in terms of rolling and longevity. Often, this type of wheel is used with little maintenance in mind, which is why we have conducted studies on the performance decay due to usage, improving every component and coupling between parts. Even the weight, compared to previous versions, has been reduced, mainly thanks to the use of modern construction carbon, reaching 1,590g/pair for the SC45
