Description

Lightweight Rim

We’ve experimented with numerous types of resin and tested countless new lay ups before we settled on our new and improved BlackEdition rim. But, that’s not all, we’ve upgraded to a higher grade of carbon, saving precious grams, and improving on the impact strength/weight ratio making the new BlackEdition our best rim yet.

Wider = Improved Performance

The Prime BlackEdition 50 Carbon Wheelset features a 50mm deep aero rim profile to provide strong aerodynamic properties by reducing the amount of turbulence when the air meets the spokes. The BlackEdition 50 combines this with a wider rim profile to create a more linear contour between the tyre and rim interface, reducing rolling resistance and creating a greater contact patch for greater stability in corners.

Greater Strength To Weight Ratio

The Prime BlackEdition 50 is hand built with the 7075 alloy bodied R010 hubset that features 4 pawls with 26 points of engagement for instant acceleration and positive engagement. The R010 hubset takes advantage of straight pull spokes to create a stiffer wheel that produces a greater strength to weight ratio, saving valuable grams for weight-conscious riders.

Crush The Competition

If you're wanting to beat all your personal bests, the Prime BlackEdition 50 Carbon Wheelset has everything you need to conquer the climb or wreck the competition on the flats.

Customer Reviews

Prime BlackEdition 50 Carbon Wheelset is rated 4.7 out of 5 by 18.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome wheels, awesome price These wheels are great! Fast, stiff and great braking performance. They also look pretty special too. So far, with the weather in the UK, I have only managed about 200 miles on them before putting my winter wheels back on. Overall they're fast on flat roads, light on climbs and confident on descents. I'm really looking forward to getting these back on the bike for the new season. My only gripe was that the supplied brake pads are a bit naff as they didn't fit in the shoes on my brakes (Ultegra R8000). In comparison to the wheels, this is negligible.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome set of wheels The second set of carbon wheels I owned and these are great! Wanted something on the cheaper side but it feels great. Solid build and looks pretty slick.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from great look, braking power is great, stiff out of the saddle, tubeless valves are solid, affordable price

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Jury's Out !!! I was really excited about receiving my new wheels after deciding to upgrade from my old Mavic Cosmic's. Unfortunately shortly after the great unboxing my excitement turned to deep frustration. Everything was supplied as promised but when it came to the tyre fitting, ABSOULTE JOKE !! The tyre was so tight to get over the rim I tried for well over an hour, fingers bleeding I gave in and took them into the LBS, even the experienced bloke in there struggled like mad and passed comment about never being able to get them off again to fix a puncture if that should arise. I'd love to know if anyone has fitted tyres easily to these rims and what they are ? The second major disappointed was fitting the supplied brake pads, another hour plus wasted and a second trip to the LBS, again the experienced bloke struggled like mad, the pads were just so tight even trying washing up liquid to ease them in didn't work and we had to resort to cutting them down to fit. Now the wheels were fitted it was time to finally try them out. The third disappointment, brake Rub !!! Because these rims are slightly wider than my old Mavic's and my Cervelo frame is 2015 territory there isn't a great deal of room down there for play, when sprinting or climbing hard the wheels flex just enough to cause brake rub. Third trip to the LBS, by this time I'm that one awkward customer who nobody wants.. I'm now having to live with slight brake rub as there's no more room for adjustment while riding these wider rims. I've also been told by the LBS that forget trying to fit anything bigger than 25mm tyres as there's simply no clearance for anything bigger. The plus points ! After riding these wheels for almost 3 weeks now I've gotten use to the odd brake rub and I find the wheels a lot more comfortable and stiffer to ride than my old Mavic's and their definitely faster. Lightweight. They look great a more subtle look than some wheels out there which is the main reason I opted for them. Overall I've given them a generous 4 stars when I probably shouldn't. God for bid any future punctures....

Q & A

Will you be selling the same wheel (design etc) with a smaller rim width to suit 25 mm tyres?

Asked by: TimBlackmore
Referencing the previous response. Are you sure? The comment above suggests 28s and above, and Sheldon Brown also suggests 28 and above. I have no doubt 25s will fit, but will handling suffer? https://www.sheldonbrown.com/tire-sizing.html#iso

Are these just tubeless wheels?

Asked by: Monkeymagic78
They are tubeless compatible. Means you can run standard clincher tyres with inner tubes or tubeless tyres with sealant. Comes with tubeless valves and tubeless tape was already installed. I've used both and they both work great.

Are the hubs suitable for wet weather?

I have seen multiple online and video reviews in which users report that the hubs are not effectively sealed against water ingress with the result that the bearings have to be replaced. Please confirm whether the hubs are suitable for wet weather and any known limitations in protection against water ingress.
Asked by: DJB27
These hubs feature sealed bearings which will be suitable for wet weather.
