CADEX 36 Disc Wheel

The hookless rim design creates a smoother transition between the tire sidewall and the rim, which improves aerodynamics and structural integrity. It also allows for a wider internal rim width, providing better tire support and stability at lower pressures.

Yes, because this is a hookless rim, you must use tubeless-ready tires that are specifically approved for hookless compatibility. Always check the tire manufacturer's pressure recommendations, as hookless rims generally require lower maximum tire pressures than traditional hooked rims.

The 36mm depth is considered a shallow-to-mid profile, which is specifically designed to be stable in crosswinds. It offers the aerodynamic benefits of a deeper wheel without the handling twitchiness often associated with taller rims in gusty conditions.

The ceramic bearings in the R1-C30 hub are designed for low friction and durability, but they do require periodic cleaning and re-greasing to maintain performance. We recommend having them serviced by a professional mechanic according to your riding frequency and the conditions you ride in.

While the CADEX 36 is optimized for road cycling, its 22.4mm internal width and robust carbon construction make it capable of handling light gravel or rough tarmac. However, it is primarily engineered as a lightweight climbing and all-around road wheel.

Dynamic Balanced Lacing optimizes spoke tension under load, which creates a stiffer wheel that transfers power more efficiently when you accelerate. The aero carbon spokes further reduce weight and minimize flex, resulting in a more responsive feel during climbs and sprints.
