With its latest high-end disc brake wheelset, Vélobsessive presents the ultimate combination of minimal weight, maximum aerodynamics, and cutting-edge technology for ambitious road cyclists and triathletes.

Ultra-Light Aero Carbon Rims with Wave Design
The wavy carbon rims are available in two aero configurations: 45/50 mm and 60/65 mm depth – each with a 21 mm internal width. They combine stability, speed, and significantly reduced sensitivity to crosswinds. The design ensures outstanding aerodynamic performance – perfect for fast climbs, competitive racing, and explosive sprints.
Aero Carbon Bladed Spokes & Ceramic Bearings
3.1 mm wide and only 2.9 g light, the aero bladed carbon spokes optimize airflow and save crucial watts. The lightweight hubs with premium-grade ceramic bearings minimize friction and guarantee maximum drivetrain efficiency. A 36-tooth ratchet freehub system ensures direct power transmission and rapid acceleration.

2:1 Spoke Ratio Construction
The asymmetrical lacing ensures balanced spoke tension on both sides – providing greater durability, stiffness, and optimal control in all riding conditions.
Versatile for Any Terrain
The wheelset can be run with tubes or tubeless – ideal for both racing and training environments.
