No fancy names here, just One Hundred millimeters of badass tubular race wheel. Blackwell Research designers have spent over one thousand hours in wind tunnel testing and studying wheel performance. Airflow relationships with different tire diameters, sidewall shapes and spoke counts have defined an optimal wheel that is lightweight and spectacularly aerodynamic. The shape of the “inner nose” is designed to be easily managed in crosswinds. As a non-disc wheel, the One Hundred has no aerodynamic equal and is hundreds of grams lighter than most disc wheels while offering unmatched watts reduction for the rider.
Blackwell Research brings you the next step in wheel evolution. The “angel hair” finish saves weight and adds stiffness. A special braking surface made of “lava dust” and carbon fiber allows controlled and positive braking. Blackwell Research continues to explore the envelope in search of better performance.
