Product Description


The CR5 is a premium carbon wheelset designed for riders who demand exceptional performance without compromising on stiffness, reliability or ride quality.   At just 930g for the 40mm version, the CR5 is remarkably light, delivering rapid acceleration and an exceptionally responsive feel on the road. Its advanced carbon construction combines a high proportion of T1100 carbon fibre with Avian’s FreeFlow technology, helping to optimise fibre continuity and improve the strength and stiffness of the rim.   Loop Under traditional process, the main section of the rim is constructed of 4 piece of fibre, so it is easier for workers to handle and fasten the manufacturing speed. We use one piece of fibre instead, the integrity of carbon fibre increases rim strength but skilled and patient workers are required.    T1100 High proportion of T1100 and Free Flow technology that enhances the continuity of fiber.   Off-centre 40mm is off-centre design to ensure similar tension of drive side and non drive side.   Carbon Spoke 1.7 Grams with T1000 fibre and titanium metal part. Nearly 50% lighter and 25% stiffer than the best of steel spokes. Aero shape and individually repairable. Traditional mechanically connected carbon spoke type. More stable comparing with cemented carbon spokes that can work with steel spoke hubs.   Small Flange Due to the excess stiffness of carbon spoke, we use small flange for more comfort to balance. The flexibility reduces the power loss in vibration and thus improves the cruising performance also.   Superlight Hub Weighing 230 grams only for hub. It is achieved by using a new special aluminium that requires much longer time for CNC machining due to the solidity. Classic ratchet system with 2 steel ratchet which is stable and endurable.   Ceramic Bearing Ceramic bearing by TPI that reduces extra weight and improves smoothness.   Purim Not only paint free. Under Purim technology, the raw rim is already close to painted rim so only need to be slightly polished and thus reserves more strength and stiffness.   Rims Rim: T1100 Carbon, Clincher.
