Description High performance goes off-road. The Assault CX brings disc compatibility and improved durability to Reynolds' most popular full carbon tubular.
Like the standard Assault model, the CX features 46mm deep carbon rims to deliver a wind cheating, mud slicing advantage with adding too much weight. Reynolds has also added the CTg braking track for great performance for bikes with rim brake systems.
The Assault CX hubs are lifted straight from the Reynolds MTB line up, featuring smooth rolling cartridge bearings and fittings for standard six bolt disc rotors. 135mm rear spacing provides an extra degree of durability, as does the 12mm thru compatible rear axle and 15mm thru compatible front. Since we're not aware of any cyclocross frames equipped for these (yet), it's a good thing Reynolds has included conversion caps and quick release skewers are included for use on standard (non thru-axle compatible) frames and forks.
The Assault CX Tubular Disc Wheelset features internal nipples, 24 DT Revolution spokes laced 2x, front and rear, and weighs in at 1496g without QR skewers.
