ELITEWHEELS Drive SL carbon road wheelset

Elitewheels Drive SL Carbon Wheels

With a 25 mm internal width, these wheels unleash the full potential of 29 to 32 mm tires: ride at lower pressures to erase road imperfections while reducing rolling resistance. Threaded carbon spokes and a monoblock titanium freehub ensure that every out-of-saddle acceleration converts directly into forward motion without energy loss.

Key Features

25 mm internal width: The widened tire bed for 29 to 32 mm tires eliminates tire squirm, delivering precise lateral support in corners and vibration absorption mile after mile.

Bladed carbon spokes: Weighing just 2.2 g per spoke with a spoke tension variation kept below ≤ 7 kgf, the rim resists deflection under load during explosive sprints.

Titanium freehub: Machining both the body and the 60 teeth from a single piece of titanium reduces hub weight while preventing cassette sprockets from biting into the splines under chain tension.

Asymmetric aerodynamic stability: Differentiated rim architecture (36 mm external width up front to stabilize steering in crosswinds, and 34 mm at the rear) stabilizes the bike at high speeds while minimizing drag.

Compatibility

Compatible with road drivetrains via Shimano HG and SRAM XDR freehub bodies (the Shimano MSR body uses a proprietary hub standard and is not interchangeable). Center Lock disc mount. Standard thru-axles: 12x100 mm front and 12x142 mm rear.

We manage the entire supply chain. Whether wheels are available directly from our Montpellier stock or require direct dispatch from Elitewheels, you face zero customs paperwork and no unexpected import fees. Need guidance on choosing between the 48 mm or 58 mm profile? Get in touch.
