We tested these wheels fitted with Vittoria Open Corsa CX tyres.

The American Classic handbike wheelset is a race quality wheelset. They posess all the qualities you need in a race wheel as they are light and aerodynamic but very stiff. Weight is reduced with the use of Titanium in the fixing bolts which are also recessed inside the hub body.

The front drive wheel utilises ACs patented alloy free hub which has steel shouldering to prevent the sprockets from embedding into the freehub. The freehub has a six pawl mechanism for quick power takeup.

Sapim bladed spokes are used to lace the large flange hubs to the 30mm Deep V profile rim, the lacing pattern includes an accent coloured spoke.
