If the frame is the “heart” of a bicycle, the wheels are the “soul”. If you only ride a set constant speed, then wheel weight isn’t much concern. However, in the real world, there is always a change in pace – terrain, wind, traffic or the random urge to just “go”. Reducing rotating weight greatly increases the responsiveness of your bike and are just all around more fun to ride – when you press on the pedal, the bike “jumps” forward with an eager liveliness that is addicting. Wabi Sub-15 700C Superlight wheels are especially great for climbing or commuting where constant stops and starts amplify the awareness of rotating mass. This wheelset features double wall, aero profile 7301 A Rim. With a combined weight of 1475g these hand built wheels have final tensioning, lateral and vertical truing and pre-stressing, done here at Wabi Cycles in Oklahoma. Wheels include rim strips, and a lock ring for a fixed cog. The rear hub is a flip-flop design, fixed threading on both sides allows the use of fixed or freewheel on either or both sides of the hub.
