Description

The perfect balance between lightness and aerodynamic performance.

The Sabelle Cycles CR45 wheels represent the pinnacle of our advanced research in aerodynamic engineering and high-density carbon layup. Developed for demanding riders seeking absolute versatility across all terrains, the CR45 combines an extremely stable 45mm profile with a structure of 1,378 grams per pair.

With an expanded 23.5mm internal width, the rim provides ideal sidewall support for modern 28mm to 32mm tires. This optimized contact patch dramatically reduces rolling resistance while maximizing grip and cornering precision on fast descents.

Equipped with our Ratchet 36T ceramic engagement hubs and 48 Sapim CX-Ray bladed aero spokes, the CR45 wheelset delivers explosive acceleration on steep climbs and effortless speed retention on flat sections.
