The No.6 28/28 Superlight Climb Wheelset is the pure expression of ProjectSpeed — engineered to deliver maximum efficiency, responsiveness, and control in climbing and high-load race scenarios.

Developed through real-world testing and race validation, the 28/28 platform is built for riders who prioritise acceleration, weight reduction, and precise handling.
