The Comète Track wheel features two perfectly lenticular flanges that can generate their own momentum when a certain speed is reached. High-modulus unidirectional carbon fibers are wrapped around a honeycomb structure to deliver unrivaled stiffness. The hub runs on ultra-smooth bearings to save the extra watts through reduced rolling resistance.
With all of these technical advantages, it’s no surprise that the world’s best track athletes, sponsored or not, won’t use anything else. Available in both front and rear versions.
