News bot Posted January 16, 2017 Posted January 16, 2017 On Friday, at the Tour Down Under, Bora-Hansgrohe and Quick-Step Floors debuted the entirely-new Roval CLX 50, where it should prove to be the riders’ wheels of choice for most stages. At 50mm in depth and ranging in weight from 1,230-1,425 grams per-pair, depending on configuration, CLX 50 is the ultimate all-around road wheelset – striking the perfect balance between lightweight, aerodynamics, and impeccable handling, unlike any wheelset before it.Click here to view the article
stringbean Posted January 16, 2017 Posted January 16, 2017 I must say I prefer a review that's written from first hand like those from Iwan as opposed to the cut and paste done here.Please don't go the Bicycling magazine way where no opinions are expressed and everything is just cut and paste or just a advert paid for by the big corporations.

To be fair, this is from the "Press Office" and not a gear review. GLuvsMtb and Kalahari Vegmot 2
Skinnyone Posted January 17, 2017 Posted January 17, 2017 Hub internals are DT Swiss’ reliable and easily-serviceable 240s with the Star Ratchet. The hub system requires no special tools to take apart or service and replacement parts are easy to source. No special tools required...sure - believe that one when pigs fly.
