Falkor 55 Disc Custom Wheelset

Description

The Falkor 55 Disc rim was developed with computational fluid dynamics modeling (CFD) and proven in the tunnel. It’s a lightweight deep carbon clincher for road racing, triathlons and just riding fast.

During research, we found that the tire shape and how it mates to the rim was critical to the performance. Based on extensive rider feedback and a desire to lower the rolling resistance, the width and shape of the Falkor 55 was aerodynamically optimized for use with 25-28mm tires. For nearly all road conditions you will likely encounter, the wider tire and rim combination will give the best overall reduction in rolling resistance, drag reduction and excellent cross wind stability. There is also the added benefit of additional traction and more comfort and rim protection from potholes, etc. The Falkor 55 is also tubeless compatible to help with the added traction, pinch flat prevention, increased tire compliance, and decreased rolling resistance.

Our wheelsets are handbuilt right here in Tennessee using only the best components and techniques; Sapim CX-Ray or Race spokes and premium alloy or brass nipples.  Wheel builds come ready to be used with a tubeless tire setup including our TPP tape and black alloy tubeless valves installed. All custom wheelsets are built to order and it may take 2-3 weeks before wheelsets ship.
