10PLUS T Series 700c 38/50mm Thru Axle Disc Brake Carbon Wheelset 36T Star Ratchet Road Race

10PLUS T Series 700c 38/50mm Thru Axle Carbon Disc Wheelset Features and Specifications

Thru axle stiffness design is the mechanical foundation of this wheelset: a 12mm or 15mm thru axle passes completely through the hub and both fork or frame dropouts, eliminating the flex inherent in traditional quick release skewers and delivering a stiffer platform for road race power transfer from pedal stroke to asphalt. The 38mm rim depth suits riders who compete on hilly or technical circuits where rapid accelerations demand lower rotational inertia, while the 50mm option rewards riders on flatter, faster routes where aerodynamic drag savings outweigh the modest rotational weight increase. Pillar 1423 bladed aero spokes reduce drag at the rim interface and resist wind-induced vibration better than round spokes, improving ride quality and high-speed stability simultaneously. The 36T Star Ratchet hub engages in 10-degree increments, providing consistent, audible confirmation of engagement that riders rely on when resuming pedalling out of tight corners during road race criteriums. A tubeless ready rim bed allows riders to ditch inner tubes entirely, dropping system weight and enabling lower tyre pressures that improve rolling resistance and cornering grip on variable road surfaces — a combination that 10PLUS has refined across its full range of performance carbon wheelsets.
