Roval has introduced a groundbreaking line of wheelsets that challenge conventional design logic by optimizing aerodynamic efficiency through unique configurations. The Rapide CLX Sprint features a deep front wheel paired with a shallower rear wheel, confirming findings that most aerodynamic advantages come from the front. This design results in a set of wheels that are not only faster but also lighter, appealing to both competitive and casual cyclists seeking top performance. The Rapide CLX III and CL III continue this trend with varying features aimed at delivering elite aerodynamics and speed optimization at different price points.
"Most brands are still pairing deeper rear wheels with shallower fronts, but Roval’s engineers leaned into CFD modeling and simulations to create the fastest wheel systems yet."
"The Rapide CLX Sprint features a 63mm deep front wheel that provides substantial aerodynamic benefits through innovative design and testing, redefining traditional wheel dynamics for speed."
