Carbon Ti X-Wheel Baccara X 48 SLR2 wheels
The new Baccara X wheels retain the philosophy and innovative features of the previous Carbon-Ti wheels models
The 23 mm wide channel allows you to pedal with lower pressures, ensuring better control of the bicycle and improving its smoothness, especially on the bumpiest roads. Asymmetric drilling (2 mm offset) allows a more homogeneous spoke tension on both flanges of the hubs for greater overall rigidity of the wheels. The solid structure allows off-road uses with gravel or cyclocross bikes.
Carbon-Ti is pleased to announce the birth of a new major collaboration with the French company Duke Racing Wheels by Philippe Jacquinet
Duke Racing Wheels produces high-tech carbon fiber rims, and supply them to multi-titled professional teams for years. The collaboration foresees the furnishing of the latest generation of MTB, Road, and Gravel wheels to offer a complete range of Carbon-Ti wheels. Carbon Ti entrusted Pippowheels, the leading company in this sector, that is making available experience, expertise, and equipment for the realization of high-quality wheels. Sapim CX-Ray rays have been chosen for all the fittings to guarantee maximum performance, and for the ease of finding spare parts. Carbon Ti will supply the wheels with the latest 100% made-in-Italy Carbon-Ti Straight Pull hubs. The 2023 version includes mechanical parts subjected to a special surface hardening treatment. The mechanics boast SKF-sealed bearings of the highest quality and a preload adjustment that ensures an always optimal setup. Demanding customers who don't want to compromise can opt for the special Ceramic Speed option on any wheel. ROAD wheels are fitted out as standard with center lock matte blacks hubs. Nevertheless, it is possible to have six holes i.s. hubs on request, and choose different anodized colors for them. Warning: These options may require longer waiting times. The customization of the wheels is completed by choosing the colored decals applied to the rims.
