We've used the same guiding principles in constructing the HED Flamme Rouge Stinger Disc that makes the standard Stinger Disc the fastest in the world, but we've incorporated some special upgrades that make it roll even more efficiently as well as shaving a few more grams off its weight.
The HED Flamme Rouge Stinger Disc has the HED Flamme Rouge hub at its heart, which has a carbon body and high-tolerance ceramic ABEC-5 rated bearings. The ratchet ring is titanium rather than steel, and all HED Flamme Rouge hubs get a titanium skewer.
All of HED's new generation of discs benefit from a revolutionary two-step hybrid disc construction, which means that a 'substrate' spoked wheel is built first, and once it is trued and stress relieved it has wafer-thin lenticular carbon sides bonded to the hub flanges, rim and spokes, with the toroidal bulge just below the rim giving the HED discs their aerodynamic advantage. The difference between the standard HED Stinger Disc and the HED Flamme Rouge Stinger Disc is that the Flamme Rouge version is built with specially laid-up high-modulus carbon disc sides - and of course it is constructed around the HED Flamme Rouge hub.
In short the HED Flamme Rouge Stinger Disc is the fastest wheel money can buy. The standard Stinger is already the fastest wheel in the world, so when you add special extras like a ceramic hub and a high modulus carbon skin, you're looking at a state-of-the-art, unbeatable piece of equipment. The rest is up to you.
