  • DK COMPOSITE WAVE 50 WHEELSET: Slice Through the Wind and Shave Seconds Off Your PR

    The DK Composite Wave 50 wheelset is engineered for one thing: pure, unadulterated speed. Developed through meticulous research and crafted with cutting-edge technologies, the Wave 50 pushes the boundaries of performance without sacrificing weight or durability.

    Unveiling the Science of Speed:

    • Aero Wave Design: DK engineers didn't settle for generic rim shapes. The Wave 50 features a special "wave" profile, meticulously crafted to cheat the wind. This innovative design slices through the air with exceptional efficiency, reducing drag and propelling you forward with minimal resistance.
    • Optimised Tyre Profile: The Wave 50 boasts a 28mm outer rim width, the sweet spot for modern road and triathlon tires. This wider platform allows for an optimised tyre profile, leading to superior comfort, handling, and rolling resistance.

    Strength Meets Innovation:

    • Reinforced Rim Integrity: DK's proprietary spoke hole reinforcement technology is a game-changer. By strategically adding more robust carbon fiber at these critical stress points, the Wave 50 maintains incredible spoke tension for optimal power transfer without sacrificing rim weight.
    • Tuned for Efficiency: The Wave 50 utilizes a proven and ultra-reliable ratchet freehub body design, available in HG and XDR variants. This low-friction system ensures smooth engagement and lightning-fast power transfer, keeping you rolling efficiently with every pedal stroke.

    The DK Difference:

    DK Composite isn't just about building wheels; they're obsessed with crafting peak performance.

    • Uncompromising R&D: DK boasts a dedicated in-house R&D team that tirelessly pushes the boundaries of carbon fiber technology. This commitment to innovation ensures you're getting a wheelset built with the latest advancements for maximum speed and efficiency.

    The DK Wave 50 isn't just a wheelset, it's an upgrade for the serious cyclist. It's a culmination of cutting-edge engineering, lightweight construction, and aerodynamic prowess, all designed to make you faster and more efficient than ever before.
