Roval Wheels at the Front
When your mission is “to create the best wheels and components, PERIOD,” there’s no room for compromise. Roval has proven itself at the highest levels of racing, with its wheels helping secure countless pro victories. Take the Alpinist CLX II Wheelset—a 1250-gram, tubeless-ready climbing wheelset with an astounding 275-lb system weight limit—a testament to Roval’s advanced engineering. Need an aero edge for flatter terrain? The Rapide CLX II blends deep-section aerodynamics with the lightweight responsiveness of a climbing wheel, optimized for tubeless efficiency and superior handling. These wheels power Specialized-sponsored World Tour teams, but Roval ensures more riders can experience pro-level performance with their more affordable CL versions. Whether you're racing, training, or chasing PRs, Roval delivers speed, strength, and cutting-edge innovation for real-world riding.
Roval Wheels Beyond Pavement
Whether you're outfitting your Epic, Stumpjumper, Crux, or Diverge for rugged trails or the most unforgiving backroads, Roval’s Control and Terra wheel lineups deliver durability, precision, and performance. Engineered with modern internal and external rim widths, these wheels balance strength, weight, and compliance for all-terrain performance. Unlike basic laced-up components, Roval wheels are fully integrated systems, where every hub, spoke, and rim work in harmony. Most models feature DT Swiss hubs or proprietary Roval hubshells with precision-engineered internals, while spokes and flange designs are optimized for high tension and impact loads. Hand-built and tested in the lab, wind tunnel, and real-world conditions, these wheels are built to last. Gravel riders, in particular, will appreciate the Terra CLX, CL, and C models, including the wider EVO option, offering premium performance for a variety of riding styles.
Upgrade With Roval Carbon Components
The comprehensive combination of strength, low weight, stiffness and engineered vibration mitigation make Roval's carbon components stand out. Well, they would if the subtle carbon finishes and logo's didn't lend themselves to a simple, clean, match-just-about-anything aesthetic. Consider the one-piece stem-bar. Rated for 275lbs, the incredibly lightweight Alpinist SL Cockpit is the ideal integrated bar-stem system for the discerning cyclist who prizes reduced weight, a super clean design with internal routing, and compact bar measurements. It sets-up nicely with all shift/brake lever designs and has a great feel. An optimized composite lay-up ensures the necessary stiffness and strength with access ports for the full integration of housing and wires. It is stiff for sprinting, yet mitigates vibration and tends to work well for various hand placements and riding styles. Not sure if you want unified bar-stem? The Alpinist and Rapide road handlebars offer great options and match up well with any 31.8mm stem.
Roval Offroad For Comfort and Control
With the Terra and Traverse lines, Roval sets the tone for gravel and mountain, respectively. You'll find the Traverse mountain bars on many of your favorite Specialized XC and Trail bikes. Strong, light, and yes, engineered for stiffness, compliance and comfort at a lightweight, these are trail bars that keep the rider comfortable and in control. For gravel and allroad, the Terra line-up is simply fantastic. With engineered upper seatpost flex, smart and stable clamping designs, and rated strength at light weight, the Terra seatposts are hard to beat. Many road riders use them on 27.2mm round compatible frames for extra comfort. The shape and ergonomics of the Terra handlebar feel great without drastic or alarming bends and angles. The mild egg shape top section keeps your hands stable and somewhat relaxed without over-gripping, while a shallow 103mm drop and short 75mm reach optimize comfort and control when riding in the drops. A 12-degree flare starts in the drops and opens up the ends of the bars for clean control alignment and optimal all-terrain comfort. In a 42cm C-C size, this flared gravel bar weighs in at just 200 grams. This is the level of exceptionalism you can expect and enjoy with Roval.
