Those who have been paying close attention in the Giro d'Italia have surely seen it. Filippo Ganna and the other riders of INEOS Grenadiers rode brand new time trial wheels during the Tour of Italy. The dense rear, the BLUR 633, from Princeton CarbonWorks of the US may not be news. But the front wheel, the MACH 7580 TS V2 (TS stands for Tri Spoke) was the talk of the town.
Princeton CarbonWorks MACH7580 TS V2: what's new
In 2022, it launched Princeton CarbonWorks after extensive testing, the first version of the MACH 7580 TS V1. At the time, it was only the front wheel that turned many a head during the 2022 Tour de France and the races after. With the new V2, work has not only been done on the design and aerodynamics. It has also opted to produce a TriSpoke BACKWHEEL. That's new from the wheel builders from Mystic, Connecticut.
Technical details:
With an internal width of 21mm and an external width on the 'hook' of 29mm, this is a wheelset ready for fast road work. You can fit today's wider tyres. In addition, weighing 925g for the front wheel and 980g for the rear wheel, this wheelset is one of the lighter ones in its class. The wheels come standard (and only) with the TACTIC TR 01 top hub.
