The K1 is the latest highly specified stage in the evolution of the ever popular wheel we've been selling for 5 years now. Commissioned to our own design the K1 Leads the way in high performance road/tt/tri wheels at a sensible cost. The K1's do whatever you ask of them. Whether racing, training or even commuting they do the job.

Compared to last years model, we've reduced the weight by upgrading to new aero anodised bladed spokes, and we've re-designed the visuals and we are more than proud of the result. As you can see we equip all our full carbon bikes with these wheels as standard. We are a bespoke custom bike builder and our offer is based on quality products rather than cheap products. We have worked extremely hard to keep the price down to fit within the budget of most riders. The K1's are built to our specification and entirely in the Eu. We work directly with the factory at Rodl in Portugal and thats how we keep these wheels way way under £200!

Please note: These wheels aren't for kit obsessives - They are designed to be a good investment and (courtesy of super tough rims and spokes and sealed bearing Formula R-Series hubs) to be used day-in and day-out with no maintainence. To roll very fast but also to take the knocks and to keep on going, sweet and true for years. They have evolved over 5 years from their Airline routes and we feel even more now that there is nothing like this aero-all-purpose wheel anywhere in the marketplace.

Deeper section and better finished than any of the other wheels around the £200 price point - and a damn site more attractive it must be said. Compare them with Mavic Aksiums or Shimano RS30 and you'll see what we mean. Weightwise the K1's compare favourably too. The K1's are lighter than the Shimano RS30 and its quite hard to accept that the RS30's have a 30mm rim. Have a Google and see! The K1's weigh a fraction more than the Mavic Aksiums but the Aksiums don't even have a deep rim or any real blading to the spokes! The K1's occupy their own unique position!
.
Super strong deep-section aero rims and new generation stainless bladed aerodynamic spokes cut through the air like a knife to offer blistering speed. We keep spare spokes, freehubs and hubs in stock should you ever need them!
In short whether you want to race these wheels, train with these wheels or even commute they are spot on for the job. Aero enough to race, light enough for sportives - without going so light that strength gets compromised. The benefits of an alloy deep section rim are that it is prodigiousy strong too making it tough enough even for commuting or cyclo-cross.
