This full-carbon wheel was developed together with time-trial specialists and professional triathletes with a sole focus on speed, so it had to be light, stiff and aerodynamic. The high-end, carbon-fibre construction offers a minimum contact surface for wind, while the reduced number of spokes and a rim depth of 81 mm provide ideal conditions for the race against time. Even the finish is made of transfer paints, which are very light.
Statement by the Jury
Fernweg stands out due to the sophisticated quality of its components and manufacturing – and, last but not least, through its exclusive, aerodynamic design.
