Specilaized Control SL V 370 Wheel

The Roval Control SL V 370 wheelset is engineered to bridge the gap between World Cup cross-country speed and the rugged durability required for down-country riding. Weighing in at 1,590 grams including tape and valves, these wheels are designed to excel on steep climbs without sacrificing the strength needed for technical descents. Specialized utilized a tuned carbon lay-up specifically to enhance traction and built a reinforced rear rim to increase impact resistance. This combination ensures that the wheelset remains lightweight for racing while providing the longevity and control necessary for elite performance on varied trail surfaces.

Technical precision is evident in the integration of the DT Swiss Ratchet LN system, which provides 20-degree engagement for efficient power transfer. The rims feature an asymmetric profile and a 4mm FlatStop bead hook designed to minimize the risk of pinch flats. Specialized paired these rims with Sapim D-Light spokes to maintain a high strength-to-weight ratio. With a 29mm internal width, these wheels are optimized for tire widths ranging from 1.9" to 2.6", making them a versatile choice for modern XC and trail applications.
