Hed 3 - Aluminum Rim Front Track Clincher
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 its
such a common
sight in professional level races. The H3 is the most aerodynamic spoked wheel that we
make. 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
Ό
loose ball-bearings on the drive side. Decals are white and
removable.
Measured weight: 968grams. (w/ axle)
