Roval wheels

First bend, first aha experience. The Roval wheelset makes an extremely stiff impression. Like a DTM sports car, it steers precisely in the desired direction even with the slightest pressure on the handlebars. On rough terrain, the next aha effect: the wheel is so stiff that every bump in the terrain is passed on to the rider. On bikes with little suspension travel or a hard-tuned fork, this can sometimes hurt. Top: the sealing tape, which turns the lightweight wheelset into a tubeless wheel in no time at all. Thru-axle compatible.
