Furbz Posted August 25, 2018 Share i have owned both CLX 60 and now CLX 50 wheels.the CLX60's were fast but i found them slow to respond with the additional weight.the difference in feel and response between them and my new CLX50's is unreal.you will be super happy with the CLX 50's - they live up to the reputation of "unicorn wheels" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Sagan after all also choses the CLX50 for his new Venge as well you wont be upset.they really are great wheels. your next stress is whether you run them with the beautifully installed rim tap or pull that out and use the supplied plastic nipple hole plugs. saves 40g i believe...

Furbz Posted August 27, 2018 Share @waynen check out the thread.i documented my veloplug install.the tape is removable without damaging it, you just have to be careful and try not to stretch it to much. not sure how well it will fit on again. https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/168530-roval-clx-50-carbon-clinchers/page-3?do=findComment&comment=3370654 waynen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waynen Posted August 28, 2018 Share Hey Furbz Fantastic just what I wanted to see thanks mate. Gave me an idea as well I will get a scale and weigh every component and post prior to the build. It will be interesting to see if the sum of the parts equals the whole at the end. Just btw why don't you run timeless? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just btw why don't you run timeless? funny you should ask. 1. i have a store of normal tires to get through first.2. i actually have a set of Deda SL38C wheels fitted with some tubeless tires. its still very early days(200km ridden) but so far so good. they do without loose air faster, so they need a pump up once a week.3. have you seen the price! double the cost to run.

You can get Schwalbe Pro One Evo for about 30 Euro’s in Europe so you should go that route (in RSA they are R1,000 on “sale”) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
