The fastest way to the top.

Engineered for polka dot jersey contenders and riders who enjoy fast climbs, the Roval Alpinist CLX III is Specialized's lightest road wheelset yet at 1,131g, shedding 134g from its predecessor. A new lightweight hub and Roval Aero Composite Spokes by ARRIS save 103.5g, while being 20% stronger than steel. And the proof is in the performance, helping Demi climb the Tourmalet 5 seconds faster than she ever has.
