When looking to upgrade your bike, one of the best places to begin is with the wheels. Commonly, wheels are the area that bike makers skimp on to get a bike to reach a certain price point. If your bike has come with a set of standard box-section alloy rims, then adding a deep-section carbon wheelset to your pride and joy will be a massive jump up in performance. The increase in speed and ease at maintaining that speed is huge.
Box Section to Deep Section
However, it’s not all about the deepest and fastest wheels for racing performance. Perhaps you already have visions of long summer rides in the Alps in mind. In which case, a lightweight shallow rim would make the perfect addition. When climbing steep grades, there’s nothing quite like feeling the zip of a stiff and responsive wheelset.
The Disc-cussion
Of course, no discussion on wheelsets would be complete without a mention of disc brakes or rim. In recent years, the performance benefits of disc brakes have largely won out or the traditional system. But, in our Black Friday wheel offers, we still have a number of rim brake wheels to choose from. There’s a wide range of options to browse, with the biggest brands represented, including Shimano, Zipp, Fulcrum, and Campagnolo to name a few.
If it’s wheels you need, and it’s a Black Friday deal you seek, then you’ve come to the right place. Spin into winter with a fresh set of hoops which are rounder, light, stiffer, more made of carbon, and better priced than ever before!
