Blackwell Research 100mm Wheels -- Blackwell Research designers have spent over one thousand hours in wind tunnel testing and studying wheel performance.
Airflow relationships with different tire diameters, sidewall shapes and spoke counts have defined an optimal wheel that is lightweight and spectacularly aerodynamic. The shape of the “inner nose” is designed to be easily managed in crosswinds. As a non-disc wheel, the One Hundred has no aerodynamic equal and is hundreds of grams lighter than most disc wheels while offering unmatched watts reduction for the rider.
Blackwell Research brings you the next step in wheel evolution. The “angel hair” finish saves weight and adds stiffness. A special braking surface made of “lava dust” and carbon fiber allows controlled and positive braking. Blackwell Research continues to explore the envelope in search of better performance.

HED 3 Wheels -- The distinctive three-spoke configuration of the H3 has given it more Tour de France top 10 TT finishes than any other wheel in the last 10 years, with or without stickers.
It is the most aero production front wheel available. As a rear, the outstanding stiffness of the the wheel provides optimum power transfer. Little wonder it’s such a common sight in prol level races. The H3 is the most aero spoked wheel that HED makes. Rim construction is identical to the Alps. Using RTM construction, the spokes, rim, and hub are co-molded in one operation. Because there are no secondary bonding processes, the H3s are supremely strong. The rim weight is light – 460g, the three spokes only weigh 170g, so the wheels climb and accelerate very well.
Available in clincher or tubular, 650 or 700. Shimano cassette, or track configuration only. Hubs are wheel-specific, two sealed bearings on the front wheel, one sealed cartridge on the rear non-drive side and ¼” loose ball-bearings on the drive side. Decals are white.

HED designs and builds wheels with exceptional aerodynamic efficiency using the finest materials. Wheels which handle correctly out in the real world. Speed and lightness are balanced with strength and durability. These criteria guide the design of every HED wheel.
For the past 20 years HED has been handbuilding wheels at their factory in White Bear Lake. The master builder lost count after 10,000 race wheels. World champion cyclists and triathletes as well as top road teams have asked HED to make them faster.
Because HED handbuilds all of their wheels, they can make most of their wheels in a stronger version for large riders. If you weigh over 190 lbs, we should talk about your intended use and riding style before you pull the trigger on a new set of wheels. We can probably make a wheel for you, but it may not be a stock version. You can email info@repartocorse.com for more information or to start a conversation.

HED Light Lenticular Disc Wheel -- Wind tunnel testing at the Texas A&M facility has proved the disc to be the most aerodynamically efficient of all the HED wheels.
This has also been corroborated by independent tests at Bath University England, which confirmed the advantages and benefits that a lenticular disc has over flat discs. The lenticular shape smoothes the disturbed air produced by the rider and crosswinds, so airflow leaving the wheel surface is less turbulent than on a flat disc or wire spoked wheel. A reduction in turbulence is an increase in speed.
The Light retains the key characteristics of the standard HED disc, but is lighter. Weight is saved from the aluminum rim by an advanced process of chemical etching.
The Pro-Lite Disc is available in 700c and 650c in tubular form only. They can be made for Shimano compatible cassette or single speed track version. Rider weight limit for this wheel is 165lbs.
NOTE: Delivery time for discs is 4-8 weeks from date of order.

HED Stinger 60 Wheels -- The Stinger 60 is excellent for TT use. It is molded with HED's patented torodial rim shape which makes the rim slightly wider in the middle of the cross section and narrower at the brake surface.
This design creates less drag by directing airflow off of the rim with less turbulence. The Stinger 60's aerodynamic advantage is significant (about 1:15 over 40K) while the handling remains relatively unaffected by side winds. The Stinger 60 is an all carbon bladder molded rim which keeps the wheel strong and the weight low.
The Stinger 60 is built with sonic hubs, bladed 6/4 ti spokes front, and bladed steel spokes rear. 700c only. Hed strongly recommends carbon-compound brake pads for use with all Stinger wheels.

HED Stinger 90 Wheels -- Used as a rear wheel or as a condition specific front wheel, the Stinger 90 is made for ripping time trials.
Bladder molded with HED's patented torodial rim shape, the Stinger 90 is aero and lightweight. Compared to a flat sided wheel, the toroidal shape keeps airflow more laminar and reduces the turbulent area behind the wheel. Designed with a high surface area, low weight and minimal drag, the Stinger 90 is a very fast wheel.
The Stinger 90 is built with sonic hubs, bladed 6/4 ti spokes front, and bladed steel spokes rear. 700c only.
The Stinger 90 is designed to be most aero with a 22mm tire. A 19mm tire will not be as fast, and will not adhere to the rim as well as a 21-23mm tire. Hed strongly recommends carbon-compound brake pads for use with all Stinger wheels.

Zipp 303 Mid V Wheels -- At ZIPP each rim and wheel is hand crafted using materials and technology developed with the goal of making your riding experience the best possible. The people at Zipp are as passionate about your sport as you are.
At ZIPP they are remarkably free of any notion that marketing makes you faster on the bike. What makes you faster is hard work and having the right equipment. Their commitment to you is to always provide the finest and highest level of appropriate technology. From Criteriums to Triathlons to Time Trials to Track, or high performance fitness riding, ZIPP provides a wide range of choices geared to meet the needs of serious competitors.
The 303 wheelset is an "all around" race wheelset for Road, Criterium and select Triathlon applications.
The 303 Clincher incorporates several significant enhancements, including ZIPP's latest improvements to our ICT carbon fiber process and the new performance and comfort enhancing VcLc technology.
A hand crafted Carbon rim is paired with M2cm technology to a totally new alloy extrusion resulting in an aerodynamically superior 40mm deep clincher rim over 100 grams lighter than the average 30mm deep conventional alloy rim. A precision machined and welded aluminum braking surface provides sure and dependable braking. This welded and machined rim is the first ever available on a structural carbon fiber rim and has been re-designed for even greater strength. M2cm technology incorporates a custom post machining operation that finishes each one of these 40mm rims with a perfectly parallel, machined braking surface. This is found nowhere else in the world.
Lateral stiffness is more than double than that of traditional rims while the vertically compliant carbon element ensures a comfortable riding experience over the all too common rough roads.
The Zipp Advanced Technology Group engineers set out to enhance control and feel through improved consistency of the tire contact patch, while simultaneously working to filter higher frequency, low amplitude vibrations and softening the blows of low frequency, high amplitude impacts. This results in a wheel which dramatically reduces rider fatigue, particularly in the posterior area not to mention the hands, arms and neck, while simultaneously improving cornering over rougher roads due to more control of the tire contact patch.
The 303 Clincher wheelset is designed for maximum aerodynamic performance in a Mid-v rim while reducing the effects of cross winds. Clincher tires exhibit different aerodynamic properties than tubular tires, so we subtly alter the shape of the clincher profile to maximize the aerodynamic characteristics of clincher tires. Like its tubular sibling the clincher 303's are built to attack corners and heel over into and out of the corners like no other aerodynamic wheelset. Straight into the wind and at minimal angles a regenerative airfoil allows the rim to appear deeper to the wind than its actual depth. From the side, this same regenerative airfoil allows the rim to appear shallower thereby improving the rims ability to heal over into corners and allowing the rim to remain relatively non-reactive to the effects of cross winds.
The 303 wheels are ideal for criteriums and excels in road racing. Triathletes or lightweight riders desiring a wheel with minimal reaction to cross winds will also find the 303 Clincher a fine choice. In all, the new 303 clincher is an outstanding choice for fast riders demanding lightweight, aerodynamics and great overall ride characteristics.

Carbon/Graphite and Alloy Composite Clincher Wheelset
You have to love the convenience of today's clincher technology. Now you can love the performance even more with the 404 Clincher wheelset. The 404 clincher is great for both Roadies and Triathletes alike. Any rider looking for the highest aerodynamic performance in a clincher race wheel, who wants to race and train on the same wheelset and who demands light weight and durability will find the 404 clincher an excellent choice.
Extensive research has resulted in m2cm, an exciting new patent pending technology. As applied to the new ZIPP 404 clincher, the result is a lighter, stronger, stiffer and yet more comfortable rim. An ICT process Carbon Fiber rim element is hand built and molded inside the precision alloy extrusion in a single seamless procedure. The dissimilar materials are melded into a unified whole that exhibits the best properties of each. There are no shortcuts in this demanding process; what you get is the result of hours of meticulous hand labor married to cutting edge technology.
A first time anywhere feature on a structural carbon fiber rim is the welded and machined alloy braking surface. Possibly the finest rim extrusion in the world, it has been again improved. At 180 grams we achieve a variance of plus or minus 1% in extrusion weight where the best previous industry standard was plus or minus 10% on conventional rims. The result is the lowest rotational rim mass of any alloy clincher available, quick acceleration and efficient transfer of power courtesy of lateral stiffness more than double that of any conventional rim.
Also added to the 404 Clincher wheelset technology is the VcLc, Visco-elastic Constrained Layer Control technology. Through numerous tests conducted at Zipp, the engineers find a noticeable improvement in the wheel performance as impacts transferred to the hub of the bicycle are reduced. The reduction in frequency shows that while the 404 clincher rim is nearly half the weight and double the lateral stiffness of an all aluminum box style rim, the VcLc 404 clincher rim has a LOWER natural frequency when subjected to vertical inputs. This rim transfers 10.9% less impact force to the rider than the standard aluminum traditional alloy rim and diminishes subsequent remaining vibrations nearly 30% faster. The result is more comfort and improved handling through improved ground contact. We understand that after six hours in the saddle every road seam can feel like the world's largest pothole, so no stone was left unturned as we sought to design the first high-frequency suspension system for your road or TT bike.
Aerodynamics are, of course, what all ZIPP wheels are known for and the 404 Clincher is no exception. The multi-patented rim shape is designed to offer the best performance over the widest range of real world conditions. Clincher tires exhibit different aerodynamic characteristics than tubular tires, so we subtly alter the 404 Clincher profile to maximize the rim for the characteristics of clinchers. No other manufacturer we know of goes to such lengths to ensure maximum performance.

Carbon/Graphite and Alloy Composite Clincher Wheelset
You have to love the convenience of today's clincher technology. Now you can love the performance even more with the 404 Clincher wheelset. The 404 clincher is great for both Roadies and Triathletes alike. Any rider looking for the highest aerodynamic performance in a clincher race wheel, who wants to race and train on the same wheelset and who demands light weight and durability will find the 404 clincher an excellent choice.
Extensive research has resulted in m2cm, an exciting new patent pending technology. As applied to the new ZIPP 404 clincher, the result is a lighter, stronger, stiffer and yet more comfortable rim. An ICT process Carbon Fiber rim element is hand built and molded inside the precision alloy extrusion in a single seamless procedure. The dissimilar materials are melded into a unified whole that exhibits the best properties of each. There are no shortcuts in this demanding process; what you get is the result of hours of meticulous hand labor married to cutting edge technology.
A first time anywhere feature on a structural carbon fiber rim is the welded and machined alloy braking surface. Possibly the finest rim extrusion in the world, it has been again improved. At 180 grams we achieve a variance of plus or minus 1% in extrusion weight where the best previous industry standard was plus or minus 10% on conventional rims. The result is the lowest rotational rim mass of any alloy clincher available, quick acceleration and efficient transfer of power courtesy of lateral stiffness more than double that of any conventional rim.
Also added to the 404 Clincher wheelset technology is the VcLc, Visco-elastic Constrained Layer Control technology. Through numerous tests conducted at Zipp, the engineers find a noticeable improvement in the wheel performance as impacts transferred to the hub of the bicycle are reduced. The reduction in frequency shows that while the 404 clincher rim is nearly half the weight and double the lateral stiffness of an all aluminum box style rim, the VcLc 404 clincher rim has a LOWER natural frequency when subjected to vertical inputs. This rim transfers 10.9% less impact force to the rider than the standard aluminum traditional alloy rim and diminishes subsequent remaining vibrations nearly 30% faster. The result is more comfort and improved handling through improved ground contact. We understand that after six hours in the saddle every road seam can feel like the world's largest pothole, so no stone was left unturned as we sought to design the first high-frequency suspension system for your road or TT bike.

Zipp Disc Wheel -- This disc is generally lighter than most aluminum rimmed “climbing” wheels and the low rotational inertia means it accelerates very rapidly and maintains speed with ease.
At just over 950g for a 700c (1222g for clincher) disc, the days of being concerned about weight in your time trial wheel are long since over.
Maximum rider weight is 250 for the tubular and 280 for the clincher.
Does not include QR.
Carbon brake pads recommended.
Zipp Sub 9 Disc Wheel -- Zipp claims that the Sub 9 reduces drag better than any other wheel. How does negative drag sound? Want more? How does blistering speed without sacrificing a bit of the stiffness, or durability sound? What’s more, you actually get better responsiveness and handling in the corners. Triathletes take note: This also means this disc is one of the most comfortable to ride over long courses.
Maximum rider weight is 200.
