RAR - Roues Artisanales

We are delighted to unveil the 2010 RAR bike, it will be the bench test for the next components and wheels of the incoming range.
The white is in the place of honour this year. Its mere side is not unpleasant and the weather is quite adapted to this color.

 In the version above, the mixed wheels (46/66mm) are sub 1100g, which makes them very attractive. Specially built for large and powerful riders, they will offer their best from flat roads to medium mountains. This versatility is made possible through their low mass, their important stiffness, and their low wind sensivity. We specifically built this wheelset for Sébastien Harbonnier, professionnal rider from CCI Differdange team in Luxembourg. Because of his strength, we didn't have any other choice to use a deep rim and the AC2:1 spoking (more information on spoking page). This alchemy reinforces the rear wheel efficiency thanks to a torque transfer close to perfection, the maximal stiffness and reliability. The front wheel comes from a stock Optimal model: its stiffness, aerodynamics, and reliability properties being very adapted, even for large riders.
