HED pioneered deep-section carbon wheels in the U.S., with the Jet series becoming a go-to choice for time trials, Ironman triathlons, and high-speed track events.
We were also early innovators in:
- Aerodynamic rim shaping
- Wind tunnel testing with mounted tires: now an industry standard
- Wide rim widths for lowered rolling resistance
Today, much of what defines modern aerodynamic wheel design can be traced back to HED’s innovations.
