Drive 50mm disc brake carbon spoke wheelset Rims
DRIVE RIMS
A Elitewheels, we design our DRIVE wheels to match the needs of professional riders. In order to deliver the best, we incorporate our own UNI carbon fiber, a specific ratio of T800 and T1000 carbon fiber(*Read more about UNI technology), making it not only strong, but also especially light and stiff. The U/V-shaped rim profile of the DRIVE 50D was chosen to make the rim both aero as well as stable in windy conditions. The DRIVE 50D’s 21mm inner rim allows for more grip, comfort, and a greater variety of tire choices.

CARBON SPOKES
What separates the DRIVE 50D from most wheels is its use of high-modulus carbon spokes. They are 3.3mm wide aero bladed spokes, offering 7% more lateral response as compared to the equivalent steel spokes. The carbon spokes are mechanically secured, giving the benefit of being able to be trued and maintained just like regular steel spokes. Anti-loosening technology is also incorporated into the spoke nipples. The threads built into the nipples give it a double-locking effect.

PERFORMANCE HUB
To get the most out of carbon fiber spokes, we specifically designed the hub with high flanges to further increase lateral stiffness and improve handling. Elitewheels manufactures its own high precision hubs, which are especially important when using ceramic bearings.

CERAMIC BEARINGS
The 50D’s front hub uses two 6803 ceramic bearings. The rear hub uses one 6903 and three 6803 ceramic bearings. These large bearings offer better rigidity. The use of ceramic bearings will allow you to have a more efficient bike, saving you precious watts.
