Carbon Team
A model with a great legacy of the past!
The upgrade of the bronze medal wheels at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games. With the difficult goal of improving the multi-award winning Carbon Team wheels, Prototype’s technical development team raised the bar again by making the wheels even more responsive with the new 30mm wide asymmetric, hookless full carbon and tubeless ready rim. These wheels were tested by BH’s factory team at the UCI World Cup for a season to optimize all wheel characteristics.
