LODI, Calif. (BRAIN) — Williams Cycling, which began wholesale distribution to IBDs this year, in addition to its long-standing online consumer direct program, has launched three new carbon clincher wheel models, the System 45, 60 and 90 wheels.
"Our goal was to create a line of wheels that meet the needs of performance cyclists," said company president Keith Williams. "We designed a rim shape that was fast in the wind tunnel with three depth options to cover almost every discipline. They feature a wide external width for 23c, 25c and even 28c tires, are available in rim brake or disc brake options, and at an attainable price point are hard to beat."
All three models feature full-carbon clincher rims mated to Williams Cycling Virgo hubs with Sapim CX Ray spokes. The Virgo hubs feature sealed cartridge bearings with an interchangeable cassette body for use with either SRAM/Shimano or Campagnolo cassettes. They are available with either rim brake or disc specific hubs. The disc hubs come standard with 12mm quick release and 15mm thru axle (front) along with 12 x 135, quick release and 12 x 142 thru axle (rear) end caps.
The numbers in the wheel model names refer to the depth of the rims, which feature a new U-shaped design for improved aerodynamics and stability.
Retail prices are $1,399 for the System 45 set, $1,439 for the System 60 set and $1,479 for the System 90s.
