Hemoglobin

For when fractions of seconds count

Features

With 85mm deep carbon tubular rims, the Hemoglobin has the aerodynamic efficiency for Time Trials (TTs) or triathlons on undulating courses, and at 1,515g and impressive stiffness they’re at home in criterium races, too. Our high-modulus carbon weave with basalt/carbon braking surface ensures stiff, lightweight rims and confident braking. Glide-Tech manufacturing ensures a smooth, blemish-free finish inside the rims, minimising material use to save weight.

Our own Axis hubs run on high-quality SKF bearings, with Shimano/SRAM or Campagnolo compatibility options. We use Sapim CX-Ray bladed spokes for the ultimate combination of aerodynamics, strength and low weight.

These top-flight components are assembled entirely by hand, with our expert wheelbuilders using truing stands from the legendary P&K Lie alongside Holland Mechanics Pro-Truer equipment for the most accurate, evenly-tensioned build you’ll find anywhere.

Hemoglobin is strong, light and slices through the air with ease – the perfect solution to shave chunks off your best time trial or bike split.
