Token TK-C55 Full Carbon Clincher Wheelset Performance Wheels

Product Description

The 55mm aero profile sits right in that sweet spot of aerodynamics versus handling, so youll find it easy to control even in crosswinds. Firing up for sprints is effortless thanks to the TBT bearings inside the Arsenal hub which are designed to minimize rolling resistance. The C55 has the added benefit of AVT to dampen impact & reinforce the overall strength of the wheel without compromising on weight. Finally, Tg X e poxy & our specially designed brake pads for carbon rims ensure that extreme temperatures created during braking dissipate quickly preventing any damage to the rim. AVT (Anti-Vibration Technology) Token have fused a top-secret material with carbon to create AVT (Anti- Vibration Technology). Weight for weight, AVT is eight times stronger than steel, resistant to high temperatures, fatigue, impact & the corrosion from chemicals or saltwater. A layer of AVT is cvast inside of the rim which gives you a super high tensile strength wheel & significantly reduces vibration. Tg X Tg X = Tg-e Xtreme. Tg (glass transition) is the temperature at which the epoxy used to treat carbon rims begins to deteriorate. When the epoxy reaches Tg the outward pressure of the tire & tube can cause the rim’s sidewall to deform, potentially resulting in a catastrophic failure. Token have treated their rims with a high Tg epoxy to withstand the extreme temperatures created during braking. Coupled with their specially designed carbon rim brake pads the temperatures from braking dissipate faster & improve overall braking performance. Tg X gives you extreme performance. TBT Bearings TBT Bearings (Tiramic Bearing Technology) deliver outstanding performance. Ceramic balls are 60% lighter than steel, extremely durable, smoother & accelerate faster than their steel counterparts. The starting torque of Tiramic Bearings is only 74% of normal bearings while the turning torque is only 67% of normal bearings. Both these factors significantly reduce chain drag making pedaling lighter & your ride much smoother. Weapons Grade Machining Built using weapons grade 5-axis CNC machining processes that ensure a very high level of accuracy in the hub’s construction. Diametric Spoke Pattern On the drive side of the rear wheel you’ll find double the number of spokes compared to the non-drive side. The two sides are metaphorically at war with each other as their battle to keep balanced spoke tension across the wheel rages on. Neither side wins, but they equally contribute to creating perfectly balanced power transfer allowing you to confidently fight your own cycling battles.
