Description
How could you possibly improve on a pair of Lightweights? Buy a pair with CeramicSpeed bearings in the hubs. That���s what you���ll get with the Lightweight Meilenstein C 24E Schwarz Edition.
Aside from the seriously sleek black on black look, the other thing that sets the Schwarz Edition apart from the other Meilensteins is that it uses CeramicSpeed bearings in the hubs. That means that these are among the smoothest rolling wheels in the world. The 48mm rim depth will offer an aero advantage, but at least as important to the designers at Lightweight is that the wheels will be unbelievably stiff. Lightweight accelerations are like no other.
The Lightweight Meilenstein C 24E Schwarz Edition are the updated Meilensteins that offer a 24mm wide rim that can accommodate tires between 24 and 34mm wide. And since they are clinchers, as the C in the name indicates, you can change out tires easily and fix flats during a ride. Lightweight engineers also focused on the braking surface when updating the Meilensteins. They have used a resin in the brake track that has been added to improve braking in the wet and also prevent the braking surface from overheating. That means that you can rely on these wheels to be the best performing racing wheels in your collection, rain or shine.
The Meilenstein C 24E for rim brakes come in two different options: one with a 16/20 spoke count and one with a 20/20 count. They have nearly identical traits in terms of the 24mm width and 48mm depth. You���ll save a little weight with the front 16 spokes option barely tipping the scales at 585g while the 20 spoke front wheel weighs 600g. The rear wheel with 20 spokes comes in at 705g. Lightweight does put a 110kg rider limit on the 16 spoke front wheel, while the 20 spoke can carry up to 120kg. Keep in mind those numbers are to include the total weight of rider and bike.
Spring for the Lightweight Meilenstein C 24E Schwarz Editions and enjoy riding perhaps the greatest pair of carbon clincher wheels available today. The stiffness to weight ratio is unrivaled for a carbon clincher, helping you to outjump the competition.
