After a request made by a racer needing a light, reliable, stiff, very strong wheelset, and beside this all black from the hubs to the tip of the ties, I assembled this set using
Ambrosio Crono F20 rims linked to
TUNE Mig70 and
Mag190 hubs thanks to
28 front and
32 rear
Cx-ray spokes. There are ties for both the front and the rear wheels.
Thus, the wheels are 17gr heavier than 1300gr and have a very versatile and agressive look at the same time!
Front wheel
The front wheel weights
590gr with its
28 Cx-ray spokes
3 times crossed and tied. The nipples used come from DT Swiss, they're made out of a very strong aluminium.
Rear wheel
727gr for the rear wheel with
32 spokes similar to the the front wheel, they're
3 times crossed on both sides. The nipples are the same as the ones of the front wheel.
The tiesIn order to turn the ties black, an anti-rust paint has been applied on the ties. The result is pretty and the tie wire can even be invisible with many layers. However I preferred a thin layer to let the handmade side visible and to save a few grams.
