ICAN Mixed Depth Wheelset Collection: The perfect balance of aerodynamics and stability

ICAN's Mixed Depth Wheelset Collection offers an ideal solution for riders seeking improved aerodynamics and control. By combining different rim depths on the front and rear wheels, these wheelsets improve handling in different wind conditions and optimize speed on straight routes. Ideal for road racing, triathlons and time trials, mixed depth wheels help riders achieve aerodynamic efficiency without compromising stability.

Warum Mixed Depth Wheels?
Mixed Depth Wheels are designed to maximize handling and aerodynamics by balancing rim depths. With a deeper rear rim, such as 52mm or more, these wheels offer significant aerodynamic efficiency, reducing drag and enabling higher speeds. The flatter front rim, typically 35-40mm, improves stability in crosswinds, making the bike more responsive in unpredictable wind conditions. This combination allows riders to take advantage of the benefits of a deeper wheel without sacrificing control.

ICAN offers options such as the AERO 38-52 and the FL38-52, where the front wheel has a rim depth of 38 mm and the rear wheel has a depth of 52 mm, so You can achieve aerodynamic advantages without sacrificing stability. We also offer a 40-50 option (AERO 40-50 PLUS/FL40-50 Max) designed to suit a variety of needs and riding styles.

Lightweight advantage and versatility
Mixed depth wheels are typically lighter than full deep rim wheelsets, making them suitable for hilly or varied trails where agility and climbing efficiency are crucial. The lighter front wheel makes it easier to maneuver, accelerate and overcome inclines, while the deeper rear wheel helps maintain higher speed on flat sections.

Ideal for various driving conditions
These wheelsets are versatile and adaptable for both flat trails and challenging terrain where handling is crucial. Mixed Depth Wheels are a popular choice for riders looking for an all-round solution that performs in a variety of conditions.

Individual Setup
Riders can customize their mixed depth wheels to suit their riding style, preferences and usual riding conditions. For example, a 45mm front wheel combined with a 65mm rear wheel offers a balanced mix of speed and stability, creating a versatile setup suitable for most conditions.

The ideal mix of speed and stability
ICAN's Mixed Depth Wheelset collection is ideal for cyclists who want to combine the aerodynamic benefits of deep rims with the handling and flexibility of flatter rims. This design approach makes them the perfect choice for riders who want to adapt to different driving environments without sacrificing performance.
