Sokudo Wheels 80SL Carbon Wheelset - HX240 Hubs

Designed for riders chasing maximum aerodynamic efficiency, the Sokudo 80SL Carbon Wheelset is built for high-speed road racing, time trials and triathlon, where maintaining momentum and reducing aerodynamic drag are critical. Featuring a deep-section carbon profile and premium hub technology, it is engineered to deliver stable, efficient performance at race pace.

Weighing 1450 g (±20 g), the wheelset combines aerodynamic performance with a robust carbon construction, making it well suited to powerful riders and sustained efforts on fast, flat terrain. The 79 mm deep carbon rims are designed to minimize aerodynamic drag, helping riders maintain higher speeds with greater efficiency while offering predictable handling in a wide range of riding conditions.

The 28 mm external and 21 mm internal rim width has been developed to complement modern road tires, providing a stable tire profile that enhances rolling efficiency, cornering confidence and overall ride quality. This balanced rim design also improves airflow around the tyre and wheel interface, contributing to the wheelset's aerodynamic performance.

A lightweight spoke configuration of 20 carbon spokes at both the front and rear delivers excellent lateral stiffness and efficient power transfer while keeping rotational weight under control. The result is a wheelset that responds quickly under acceleration and remains composed during high-speed efforts.

At the centre of the wheelset are Zero Gravity V3 polished chrome hubs, designed to provide exceptionally smooth rolling performance and long-term reliability. Equipped with premium CeramicSpeed bearings and the fast-engaging Vapor 45T ratchet system, the hubs offer low rolling resistance, rapid engagement and dependable performance for both racing and everyday training.

Combining a deep aerodynamic profile, lightweight carbon construction and premium hub technology, the Sokudo 80SL Carbon Wheelset is designed for riders looking to maximize speed and efficiency while maintaining confidence and control at high velocities.
