Butted :

Race

Race is a very popular double butted spoke. Build up tension is easy. Much less torsion and not as elastic as the Laser spokes are the key points. The Race provides a better shock absorption thanks to a thinner middle section than the one of a non-butted spokes. Dealers say about this traditional spoke: “Never change a winning team…”

Laser

The Laser is a lightweight spoke. The thin middle section of 1,5 mm needs special care while building up the wheel. You may have to use pliers to hold the spoke to prevent the spokes from winding up. Only experienced wheel builders should mount up wheels with this spoke.

• Longlasting
• Highly flexible
• Better shock absorption thanks to the thin middle section

Aero :

CX-Ray

The CX-Ray still receives one of the best results in fatigue testing of any spoke. Its unique strength and flexibility make the CX-Ray suitable for most bicycle disciplines. The middle section of the spoke is drawn then pressed in a special mold to form its specific profile. CX-Ray spokes are used by top bike racers and triathletes around the world. Even downhillers use them, recognizing their strength and flexibility. Special alloy treatment and sophisticated production make this all possible. The CX-Ray fits in all standard hub holes.

• No extra hub hole design; hub manufacturer‘s guarantee is unaffected.
• Almost as light as Titanium.
• More long lasting than any other spokes on the market.
• Extremely high fatigue test results.
• Special alloy treatment and sophisticated production.
• The best aerodynamic eliptic spoke available.
• Produced from high-tensile, fatigue-resistant 18/8 stainless steel conforming to the Sapim quality standard specifications.
