Product Information

Full details

The Specialized Roval Alpinist CL II 700c Wheel is designed for road cyclists who prioritize climbing efficiency and responsive handling without sacrificing durability. This 1375-gram tubeless-ready wheelset provides immediate acceleration and precise cornering, making it an ideal upgrade for performance-focused road riding. While these wheels offer industry-leading weight and ride quality, they are strictly intended for disc-brake configurations, which may limit compatibility with older rim-brake road frames.
