Knight Composites 35 Tubeless Aero Carbon Clincher R45 Wheelset

Knight Composites 35 Tubeless Aero Carbon Clincher R45 Wheelset

Featuring Knight Composites TEAM (Trailing Edge Aerodynamic Manipulation) technology, and manufactured using the EPS moulding system; introducing the 35 TLA Carbon Clincher Chris King R45 Wheelset. Designed for the mountains with a 35mm rim depth balancing aerodynamics and a reduced weight, this wheelset also has the versatility for everyday riding and racing over varied terrains. Optimised for 25mm tyres, these wheels were developed in collaboration with Schwalbe and the internal rim profile makes for easy installation of a tubeless system.

Tubeless tyre technology has been taken to the next level by Knight Composites. In collaboration with Schwalbe, the brand have developed their TLA (Tubeless-Aero) system, combining speed, comfort and ease of use. With the aim of changing how people see tubeless wheel and tyre setups, the complexity has been removed, and the 35 TLA Clincher Chris King R45 Wheelset is a top performance carbon offering with smooth rolling Chris King R45 hub. Mounting tubeless tyres is now faster and easier, thanks to the new centre channel and reduced wall height, with no additional need for an air compressor. The ‘hookless’ internal rim profile tapers inward to lock down the tubeless tire bead for a two-fold increased sealing surface over traditional ‘hooked’ rim designs.
