Test 2017: Wheels for road bikes with disc brakes - 22 wheels for disc racers testedPhoto: Robert Kühnen
Which wheels for disc racers offer the best riding characteristics? And which ones are also really fast? In the test: 22 wheelsets between 35 and 60 millimetre rim height

Modern wheels make racing bikes fast in two ways: they are aerodynamically advantageous, but with their generous width they also bring tyres into better shape: More speed goes hand in hand with more comfort. And because the disc takes care of the braking, you no longer have to worry about smoking cork pads and soft brake track surfaces. It has never made more sense to roll on carbon.
