Real Speed RS80 SL Disc Wheelset
- Description
Built for riders chasing every watt of free speed, the RS80 SL is the top-tier evolution of the RS80 platform — an aero road wheelset engineered to slice through the wind while shedding weight for even faster acceleration and climbing response. Every rim is laid up from T1100G Torayca carbon fiber, delivering exceptional stiffness and strength while pushing the wheelset's weight even lower.
Rim Geometry
An 80mm depth is optimized for maximum aerodynamic advantage on flats, rolling terrain, and time trial efforts, while the 28mm external / 21mm internal width profile is tuned around modern road tire standards. This width properly shapes and supports tires from 28mm to 32mm, improving aerodynamic tire-to-rim transition, cornering stability, and comfort at race pressures.
Built for Speed
With its deep-section profile and refined aerodynamic shaping, the RS80 SL is the ideal platform for triathletes, time-trialists, and any rider looking to pull out all the stops in pursuit of optimal aerodynamics. Whether it's an iron-distance race, a flat-out TT effort, or a fast group ride where every second counts, the RS80 SL is built to hold speed and minimize drag when it matters most.
Next-Level Performance
The RS80 SL is built around Realspeed RS-SL hubs, upgraded with ceramic bearings for reduced friction and even smoother, faster rolling than the standard stainless bearing setup. Paired with Sapim CX-Ray aero bladed spokes, the wheelset delivers razor-sharp responsiveness, excellent power transfer, and the low-drag profile serious racers demand.
Handbuilt in Canada
Each RS80 SL is handbuilt in Canada by experienced wheelbuilders, ensuring precise spoke tension, true, and long-term reliability that machine-built wheels can't match.
The Result
At just 1285g for the set, the RS80 SL delivers an even more race-focused package than the standard RS80: full aero depth, ceramic-smooth rolling efficiency, and a lighter, quicker-accelerating platform for riders who want every possible advantage on race day.
