Description The over-achieving aero performer.
Combining Rolf Prima's wind-cutting paired spoke technology with their Delta rim profile, the Ares4 7.0 Carbon Wheelset is both feather light and incredibly responsive. With 42mm of depth and 26mm of width, the wheelset provides exceptional aero performance – especially when paired with the modern wider road tires.
With Rolf Prima's XST5.5 hubset, this version of the Ares4 is compatible with Center Lock Disc rotors for all-season, all-condition braking. Inside, Enduro's Zer0 Ceramic Bearings keep the hubset spinning effortlessly. New for 2018, Rolf Prima's T2 High Engagement drive mechanism for even faster engagement.
