Flat-to-rolling road races and criteriums
Triathletes who want one wheelset that pulls double duty on road and tri bikes
Riders upgrading from a shallower alloy or entry-level carbon wheel who want a real, feelable speed gain

NOT IDEAL FOR

Riders in consistently high-crosswind regions who want the most forgiving, neutral-handling wheel
Pure gravel or mixed-surface riding. See Jocassee or Pinnacle Race

Discover

1 - Performance Targets First

Aero efficiency, stiffness, and impact resistance locked in before any gram-chasing begins.

Discover

2 - Rim Architecture

A 55mm profile shaped for real aero gain without sacrificing crosswind stability. A 2.5mm rim offset equalizes spoke tension front to rear for a stronger, straighter wheel.

Discover

3 - Carbon layup strategy

T1000 aerospace-grade carbon, placed where aero loads and impact forces actually live. Not applied uniformly just to hit a weight number.

Discover

4 - Dimensional control + QC

Bead seat, ERD, and critical interfaces inspected so every build starts true.

Discover

5 - Spoke & Tension Plan

Pillar Wing 20 spokes chosen for long-term stability and lateral stiffness at speed, not just the lightest spec sheet.

Discover

6 - Handbuilt, Stress-Relieved

Multiple tension cycles, stress relief, final balance checks. Stays true when you're out of the saddle.
