VeloNews Review of the T24-CX

Model: T24-CX

The Working Man's 'Cross Wheel

New for 2011, the T24-CX is a light weight low-profile tubular rim for cyclocross and professional road racing. It began life as a special production wheel for Richard Sachs who asked for a wide section rim to maximize adhesion on wide-section cyclocross tires. Cole developed a 23mm wide rim with a shallow radius and center channel to optimize fit and adhesion on wide section tires. The shallow radius bed is designed to fit the shape of a big section tire. The center channel automatically centers the tire on the rim (the seam of the tire fits into it). And the greater surface area of a wider rim means there’s more glue-tire contact. The result is a rock-solid platform for big section tires.

"The Richard Sachs 'Cross Team has raced Cole wheels for the last three season without a single mechanical. That's over 350 race starts AND finishes. Top that atmo!" -- Richard Sachs, builder, rider, legend.

"The result is a rock-solid platform for big section tires." -- VeloNews

"If you’re looking for a durable wheel with an excellent gluing surface and nice light rims, you’re on a bit of a budget...look no further." -- VeloNews

"Cole Wheels is a company you might not have heard before, be that as it may, once you ride a set you will be completely sold." -- Talking Treads

"[The team’s Challenge Grifo tires] feel like they’re on rails...The support the tire gets because of the wide rims makes them exponentially more grippy, which is kind of awesome." -- Dan Cabanov

 

Description:

The T24 features a DSA hub and low-profile, tubular aluminum rim. The high-tension DSA spoke lacing gives this wheel the performance characteristics of a pro racing wheel, perfectly at home in the mud or on the road. A lightweight hub keeps the weight to a competitive 1540 grams.

Options:

  • The wheels come stock with a Shimano/Sram compatible free hub.
  • We offer a Campagnolo compatible freehub instead of the Shimano/Sram if the customer specifies that that’s what they want at the outset.
