With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.
Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!
With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.
So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.
Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates are given on Pre-Order and Pre-Launch products. They are for indication purposes only and can change at any time without notice.
The dates we provide are based on indications given by our suppliers. Whenever we get updated information from our suppliers we will endeavour to update the Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates provided on product pages.

After designing the CLX 50s we realized that an affordable race-worthy carbon wheelset was nowhere to be found, until the cl 50 disc was developed that is. We paired our quiver-killing CLX 50 disc rim with DT swiss competition round spokes our aero flange disc hubs with DT swiss 350 internals and steel bearings to deliver you an exceptional wheelset at a more than accessible price.
Why disc you ask? With our disc-specific rims you not only ditch the brake track but you get a stronger more impact-resistant rim. This comes at the hands of a disc-specific carbon layup that optimizes stiffness and keeps weight as close to its rim-brake brethren as possible. And all the while you get incredible brake modulation and power in all conditions.
Sharing rims with the CLX 50s the cl 50s feature many of the benefits as their higher-end siblings. Even though the cl 50 is similar in weight to many wheels in the lightweight category aerodynamics came at the forefront of the development. With this we jumped headlong into computational fluid dynamics computer modeling to arrive at various rim shapes that could make the cl 50 as fast and light as possible. It took a while but we narrowed the rim shape down to three contenders that were then cnc machined into rims built into wheels and put into the win tunnel.
In the tunnel we tested every wheel ours and the competition's with a 24c tire (measuring 26c) as tires can drastically affect testing. We chose a modern-width tire to design our rims around because they not only allow for less tire pressure (which results in more comfort and less rolling resistance) but are also just as aerodynamically efficient when paired with the correct rim width.
Now it was time for final testing validation. The result? A 50mm-deep 1515-gram clincher wheelset that's race-ready and wallet-friendly.
