CADEX 40 Max Disc Brake Front Wheel

The 40mm depth is designed to strike a balance between aerodynamic efficiency and crosswind stability. It offers enough depth to reduce drag at speed, while remaining shallow enough to handle predictably in gusty conditions.

Yes, because this wheel uses a hookless rim profile, you must use tubeless-ready tires that are compatible with hookless standards. Always check the tire manufacturer's compatibility chart to ensure the tire is approved for hookless rims and adheres to the recommended pressure limits.

Carbon spokes are significantly stiffer and lighter than traditional steel spokes. This rigidity improves power transfer and responsiveness during acceleration, though it can result in a firmer ride feel compared to wheels built with steel spokes.

This front wheel is designed for a 100 x 12mm thru-axle system, which is the standard for most modern road disc brake bikes. Please verify your fork's axle specifications before purchasing to ensure compatibility.

The wider internal width creates a better tire profile, allowing the tire to sit more squarely on the rim. This improves cornering stability, reduces rolling resistance, and allows you to run slightly lower tire pressures for increased comfort.

While the rim is tubeless-ready and optimized for tubeless setups, you can use inner tubes as long as you use a tubeless-compatible tire that is approved for hookless rims. However, running a tubeless setup is recommended to fully utilize the rim's performance benefits.
