TheyвЂ™re tubeless-ready and utilise a tubeless plug system to block the spoke holes, although rim tape is lighter, much faster to install and better performing. At 1410g a pair, they're also super competitive in the weight stakes. They've since been superceded by the Rapide CLX, however still remain a popular choice for their tubeless compatibility - something the newer models go without. The Roval CLX50 is Specialized's in-house all-rounder carbon wheels, and they've been around for a number of years now. They are easily one of the fastest options in the segment - light and stiff, they offer all the qualities of the more established segment players at a lower price point.

The Scope R5 disc wheels have been manufactured to go the distance and be used day in day out with assurance, a 3-year warranty is standard. To achieve this Scope has used what it calls вЂLocal Reinforcement TechnologyвЂ™ (LRT) which strengthens the rim at the spoke holes instead of the entire wheel circumference resulting in a 10 per cent reduction in weight with no compromise on durability and resilience. In terms of weight a complete R5d wheelset tips the scales at 1632g (755g front/877g rear) which is on par if not lighter than some of its more established rivals. Ride quality can be harsh if paired with regular clinchersДeveloped in-house at its headquarters in the Netherlands, Scope has focused heavily on refining the shape, width, weight and stiffness of the R5 wheels, which have been verified through Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and wind-tunnel testing.
