The Roval Rapide CLX II Wheelset is engineered for pure speed—built to dominate real-world riding conditions, not just the wind tunnel. With more World Tour wins than any other wheel since 2020, the Rapide CLX platform has already proven itself at the highest level. Now, the CLX II takes it even further with improved aerodynamics, stability, and efficiency.
Featuring a unique front and rear rim design, the Rapide CLX II delivers the aerodynamic benefit of a deep-section TT wheel while maintaining the lightweight feel of a climbing setup. The result? Faster overall performance with a 25% improvement in stability compared to traditional 50mm rims—giving you confidence in crosswinds and high-speed descents.
The hooked tubeless-compatible rim allows for real-world pressures and easy setup, while the Roval AeroFlange hubs with DT Swiss 180 EXP internals and ceramic SINC bearings ensure maximum efficiency and durability. Whether you're racing, training, or chasing speed on local roads, this is one of the fastest all-around wheelsets available.
Available now at Mackay Cycles, the Rapide CLX II is the ultimate upgrade for riders pushing performance limits—perfect for fast group rides, racing, and big efforts across Mackay and beyond.
