The Stealthy Jet RC Black wheels build on 30 years of iconic
performance that set the industry standard for aerodynamics and
handling.
Compared to traditional alloy wheels, the aero benefit of the Jets
will give you an immediate bump in speed. Durability is unmatched –
we’re in our third decade of producing these carbon/alloy classics.
Their aero performance is thoroughly modern; the first modern UCI Worlds
TT win on clinchers was on Jet 9/Jet disc. Internal rim width has been
21mm since 2014. The crosswind handling is superb. And braking? As
we note on our Ardennes Black page:
HED’s patented system features a textured, all-black braking surface.
This detailed design increases brake power in both wet and dry
conditions. When it is dry, brakes have more power, so you can stop more
quickly with much less force at the brake lever. When the roads get
wet, HED’s Turbine Braking Technology keeps water away from the braking
surface, drastically outperforming regular alloy or carbon rims - so you
can stop more quickly with less force at the brake lever.
For rim brake performance and speed, Jet Blacks are unbeatable.
FEATURES: Handmade in the U.S.A. Rim depths ranging from 40mm to a
complete Aero Disc Wheel set weights starting at 1,568g with the Jet RC4
Black Black Turbine Braking Technology.
