The Rolf Prima Ares4 Disc Carbon Wheelset is designed to cut through the wind on its way to victory. Combining wind-cutting paired spoke technology and Rolf's Delta rim profile, this disc brake-compatible wheelset provides feather light aerodynamics and responsiveness.
At 42mm of depth, the carbon fiber rim is firmly in the mid-profile realm, but provides aerodynamics comparable to much deeper wheels on the market. With an external width of 26mm, the Ares4 offers an optimal pairing with the day's wider road tires for improved handling and aerodynamics.
With Rolf Prima's XST5.5 hubset, this version of the Ares4 is compatible with Center Lock Disc rotors for all-season, all-condition braking. Inside, Enduro's Zer0 Ceramic Bearings keep the hubset spinning effortlessly. New for 2018, Rolf Prima's T2 High Engagement drive mechanism for even faster engagement.
The Rolf Prima Ares4 Disc Carbon Clincher Wheelset includes rim strips, valve extender, and QR set when applicable.
