Drawing upon their over 25 years experience in the composites
industry and their passion for cycling, the folks at Edge Composites
have created an innovative new product line with their clincher series carbon rims. Combining the convenience of a clincher rim with the superior ride quality and aerodynamics of carbon, Edge has given cyclists a superior alternative to existing rim options.
Using a proprietary molding process in which
the spoke holes are molded and not drilled, Edge has created a spoke
interface that permits the running of higher spoke tensions without
compromising the integrity of the rim. And not only does the spoke
interface allow for higher tension, it is designed to enhance the
durability of the wheel as a whole by limiting spoke fatigue. The
result is a low maintenance, long lasting, and highly durable wheel.
Other features of Edge's unique molding process include an elevated
brake surface for optimized braking performance and longer rim life,
and impact resistant sidewall construction for overall durability.
This clincher rim has a 38mm deep aerodynamic section with 20 molded
spoke holes.
Edge Composites recommends Swiss Stop's Yellow King brake pads for use on their full line of carbon road rims.
