Specialized has succeeded in making the multiple World Tour winner Rapide CLX even faster. The improved model combines the aerodynamic properties of the high rims of a time trial wheel with the low weight achieved by wheels specialising in climbs with their flat cross-section.
In order to optimise aerodynamics, the front and rear wheels, which are otherwise similar in terms of rim shape, differ slightly in their profile design. Nevertheless, the Specialized Rapide CLX II remains unsurpassed in stability and handling, regardless of the wind conditions.
In addition to refined aerodynamics and outstanding climbing capabilities, the carbon wheel is also characterised by the superior efficiency and excellent control of a tubeless system. All in all, the Rapide CLX II delivers maximum speed for ambitious demands. The finishing touch is the high manufacturing quality: from the arrangement of the carbon fibre mats to the last nipple, everything is handmade.
