Description
Disc brakes are all the rage these days, and for good reason. They offer great braking in all weather, especially mud-laden cyclocross, dusty gravel races, and cold winter training rides. What do disc brake bikes deserve more than anything? A great set of wheels.The HED Ardennes Plus GP Disc Brake Clincher Wheelset offers the benefits of a wide alloy rim and disc brakes in an entry-level package. The Ardennes Plus rims are 25 mm wide, creating more tire volume for increased control, better rolling efficiency, and a smoother ride. They're laced with 24 durable j-bend steel spokes front and rear to HED's own disc brake hub for lasting reliability. Alloy nipples keep the rotational weight down, and tubeless compatibility makes the Ardennes Plus GP a versatile wheelset for any type of riding.
The pair weighs in at 1680 gram and featrures the easy to use and perfectly aligned Center Lock spline rotor mounts. The wheels come set-up for 12x100mm front and 12x142mm rear thru-axles. Includes tubeless rim tape. QR and 15mm front hub conversion parts are sold separately. HED also offers Campagnolo and SRAM XDR freehub bodies for this interchangeable system. Return to TopFeatures
