Mad Fiber Road Clincher Wheelset

At long last, Mad Fiber has developed a clincher version of their revolutionary road wheelset.

Like their tubular counterparts, the Mad Fiber Road Clincher Wheels feature 60mm (front) and 66mm (rear) rim profiles, bladed spokes (12f/18r) and narrow flange spacing. Their unique look is made possible thanks to Mad Fiber's patent pending technology, which delivers outstanding wind cheating efficiency at an impressively low weight. In fact, these wheels have been validated in the San Diego low speed wind tunnel as being among the best in the business in terms of aerodynamics, and particularly distinguish themselves from the competition in crosswinds.

What sets the clincher rim apart from its tubular predecessor is a new integrated tire seat -- Mad Fiber now uses a three piece construction composed of two carbon sidewalls and a thin alloy top section. Unlike full carbon designs, the aluminum tire hook provides outstanding strength without excess material, allowing the rim to resist the outward force exerted by a high pressure clincher tire without a significant weight penalty. As an added benefit, the aluminum insert absorbs heat from the carbon sidewalls while structurally reinforcing the rim. And because Mad Fiber specifies a carbon fiber, resin and adhesives that are stable at higher temperatures than those used by other wheel makers, their carbon clincher delivers performance and safety, even in extreme conditions.

The newest generation of Mad Fiber wheels feature a one piece drive side spoke construction for stiffer, stronger performance. And as with their previous wheels, Mad Fiber's Clincher Road Wheels come with a four year crash replacement policy. Despite their exceptionally low weight these wheels carry no rider weight restriction.

The Mad Fiber Clincher Wheelset include skewers, cork brake shoes, and valve extenders. It's available with either White or Grey (Reflective) decals, steel or ceramic bearings, and compatible with Shimano/SRAM 8/9/10 and Shimano 11-speed cassettes or Campagnolo 9/10/11 speed cassettes.
