Knight Composites 65 Carbon Clincher DT350 Wheelset

Knight Composites 65 Carbon Clincher DT350 Wheelset

The most affordable 65 millimetre wheelset in the American company's range, the Knight Composite 65 Carbon Clincher DT350 Wheelset is an ideal aerodynamic addition to any road, time trial or triathlon bike. Slicing through the wind, using a 65 millimetre deep rim, designed to be durable, stiff and lightweight.

Designed with speed and reliability in mind using the EPS construction process. This uses Toray carbon fibre, the same material used on Boeing’s 777 aeroplanes, and EPS, expanded polysterene, to produce a rim of exceptional quality. The EPS construction is also lightweight, strong and designed to dampen road buzz.

Whether it is the cobbles of Roubaix or the smooth tarmac of Boxhill, you can be safe in the knowledge that all Knight Composite wheels have passed stringent safety tests.

Wind is this wheelsets friend. Knight Composites have combatted "wind steer" by moving the lift to the rear of the wheel. This repositioning of lift means less watts are required to produce the same speed.

Extensively tested to produce the fastest wheel possible, Knight Composites have developed the Trailing Edge Aerodynamic Manipulation process. This eliminates drag and enhances airflow over the rim and tyre. This is turn improves the frame's aerodynamic efficency. This rim design optimises the frame's shape and offers the best air trajectory. Ultimately this makes the 65 Carbon Clincher DT350 Wheelset significantly faster than a standard box section wheelset.

The 28 millimetre rim width adds stability and the clincher setup accomodates a range of clincher tyres. Sapim have added 20 spokes on the front. These are a lightweight and durable option. On the rear, for added stiffness, 24 spokes have been used.

DT Swiss' DT350 hubs are affordable, spin smoothly and are a stylish option. These are low maintainence hubs and feature a Shimano freehub body that accepts 9, 10 and 11-speed Shimano cassettes.

Whatever the colour of your bike the white or black graphics will make you stand out from the competition.

Includes Valve extenders, rim strips, brake pads and QR skewers
