TECH

Turbo rims feature a 25mm internal width, 32mm external width, and a maximum width of 34.5mm, making them ideal for mainstream 28c and 30c tire sizes. The measured width of labelled 28c and 30c tires usually ranges from 30mm to 34mm. The rim width of the Turbo rims, when paired with these tires, adheres to the 105% rule of thumb.

The aero advantage of the Turbo wheels comes from their shape and rim depth. The smooth curvature of the rim sidewall reduces air drag and enhances crosswind stability, similar to our tested and proven X-Flow profile. The rim shape also enhances lateral stiffness, making the wheel feel more responsive during acceleration.

Available in carbon spoke and steel spoke versions, feel free to customize your Turbo 50 wheels.
