High performance lightweight road wheelset based around our lightest hubs including stainless bearings, laced to our 25mm wide (20mm internal), tubeless compatible road rim.
Another evolution of our Lark wheelset, the Lark20 rim as its name suggests features a 20mm internal width to support tyres of any width from 25mm upwards and improve handling and air flow over the rim for faster riding. The rear wheel is built with a 2:1 lacing pattern with 16 spokes on the drive side and 8 on the non-drive-side for maximum strength and even spoke tensions.
The straight-pull hubs have large bearings and with a small weight penalty over the J-bend options – about 30g per pair. We recommend the Lark Light wheelset for riders up to 90kg. If you are looking for stronger wheels for touring or commuting try our Lark strong wheels with higher spoke counts and no rider weight limits.
