Roval

Rapide Sprint CLX Wheel

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"If you’re chasing watts and want a TT-caliber front with the stability of a road setup, the CLX Sprint is it. It rolls fast, holds line through crosswinds, and honestly feels glued to the road in high-speed corners. Perfect for big race days."

Crafted for elite road racers and time trial specialists, the Roval Rapide CLX Sprint delivers the highest level of aerodynamic performance and efficiency. Engineered with a 63mm front and 58mm rear rim, the Sprint prioritizes frontal aero drag reduction while maintaining rear-end stability and responsiveness. This configuration delivers a full 2-watt advantage over the Rapide CLX II, giving riders the edge where it counts most—at the finish line.

Weighing just 1395g with tape and valves, it’s the lightest aero wheelset in its depth class. Roval’s proprietary aero composite spokes and SINC ceramic bearings ensure stiffness and speed, while low-flange Centerlock hubs support high-torque sprint efforts. Wide bead hooks and a 4mm virtual with 2mm FlatStop beadhook deliver leading tubeless tire retention and flat protection tested at race-day pressures.

Whether you’re launching a decisive move, chasing a break, or sprinting to the line, the Rapide CLX Sprint is engineered to carry you faster—every meter of the way.
