The distinctive three-spoke configuration of the H3 has given it more Tour de France top 10 places, in time trial stages, than any other wheel in the last 10 years, with or without stickers! The shape provides uncompromised handling over flat, hilly or exposed time trial courses, in all weather conditions. As a front wheel it exhibits an aerodynamic efficiency second to none. Fitted to the rear, the outstanding stiffness of the structure translates to optimum power transfer under load. All achieved without the handling drawbacks of a full disc. Little wonder it’s such a common sight at professional level competition.In spoked wheels, the H3 is the most aero wheel that we make. Only a disc is faster. Rim construction is identical to the Alps with the spokes being made in the same way. The spokes, rim and hub are all molded at the same time. The rim weight is light – 460g, and the spokes weigh 170g, so the wheels climb and accelerate much better than the overall wheel weight seems to indicate.
Available in clincher or tubular, 650 or 700. Shimano cassette only. Hubs are wheel-specific, two sealed bearings on the front wheel, one sealed cartridge on the rear non-drive side and ¼” loose ball-bearings on the drive side.
