Prime BlackEdition 85 Carbon Rear Road Wheel

Prime BlackEdition 85 Carbon Rear Road Wheel

When the slimmest of margins come between wins and losses, the BlackEdition 85 Carbon Rear Wheel could very well be the difference maker. Achieving speedier output from the same physical input thanks to the 85mm deep aero rim profile will get you to gold as efficiently as possible.

Combining that rim depth with its 27.5mm optimised width increases the BlackEdition 85 Carbon Rear Wheel’s aerodynamics, contouring in a more linear style with the tyre. Stiffer and more reactive due to being built of a R010 CNC machined 6061 hub and DT Swiss, the wheel provides a greater strength to weight ratio, to save you grams as you make your gains.

Whether competing in a time-trial or triathlon, the BlackEdition 85 Carbon Rear Wheel will get you to your PB or the podium and comes complete with a Prime QR skewer, Prime Carbon Brake Pads, tubeless valve and tape, 2 spare spokes and 2 nipples.

Lightweight Option

Since the release of the original BlackEdition range in 2018, Prime have been working hard behind the scenes with Vitus Pro Cycling in search of the marginal gains that could help them in some of the UK’s biggest races. After experimenting with numerous types of resin and testing countless new lay ups, they finally settled on their new and improved BlackEdition rim. Prime has also upgraded the BlackEdition to a higher grade of carbon, saving weight, and improving on the impact strength/weight ratio making the new BlackEdition their best rim yet.
