Wheels and Wheelsets Collection

Elevate your triathlon performance with the Arvada Triathlon Company’s Wheels and Wheelsets Collection, featuring high-performance carbon and alloy wheels designed for triathletes in Arvada and beyond. Engineered to optimize speed, aerodynamics, and handling, our collection is perfect for crushing the bike leg of a sprint triathlon, Ironman, or time trial. At Arvada Triathlon Company, we’re dedicated to providing athletes with top-tier gear to reduce drag, save watts, and achieve personal bests on any course.

Our Wheels and Wheelsets Collection includes a range of options to suit every triathlete’s needs, from deep-section carbon wheels (60-80mm) for maximum aero efficiency to lightweight alloy wheels for versatile training. Available in clincher, tubeless-ready, and tubular formats, these wheels support modern disc brakes and wider tires (25-30mm) for lower rolling resistance (saving ~5-10 watts at 45 km/h) and improved stability in crosswinds. Choose from spoked wheels for road compatibility or discipline-specific sets with trispoke fronts or disc rears for ultimate speed, delivering up to 6.5 minutes saved over 112 miles compared to standard wheels.

• Carbon Wheels: Deep-section (60-80mm) carbon wheels, like those with 22-25mm internal widths, minimize drag and save ~5-7 watts at high speeds, ideal for flat, fast triathlon courses. Tubeless-ready options enhance puncture protection and comfort.
• Alloy Wheels: Lightweight and durable, alloy wheels offer a cost-effective upgrade for training or hilly races, with slightly less aero benefit but improved responsiveness, saving ~400g over stock wheels.
• Specialty Wheels: Trispoke fronts and disc rears maximize aerodynamics for time trials and triathlons, saving up to 9 seconds over 10 miles, though they require confident handling in crosswinds.

As Colorado’s premier triathlon retailer, Arvada Triathlon Company is committed to helping athletes achieve their fastest bike splits with expert guidance and quality gear. Our Wheels and Wheelsets Collection ensures you ride faster, handle better, and conserve energy for the run.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Why are specialized wheels important for triathlons?
Specialized wheels reduce drag and rolling resistance, saving watts (e.g., ~5-10W at 45 km/h) and seconds, crucial for non-drafting triathlons where aerodynamics is key.

2. How do I choose the right wheelset for my triathlon?
Consider course conditions and goals: deep carbon wheels (60-80mm) for flat, fast races; alloy for hilly or training use; trispoke/disc for time trials. Match rim width to tire size (25-30mm). Our team can guide you.

3. Are tubeless wheels worth it for triathlons?
Yes! Tubeless wheels reduce weight (20-40g vs. tubes) and rolling resistance (2-5W), with sealant for puncture protection, ideal for racing and long training rides.

4. Can these wheels be used for non-triathlon cycling?
Absolutely! Carbon and alloy wheels are versatile for road racing, time trials, or recreational rides, with tubeless options enhancing performance on varied terrains.

5. How do I ensure wheel compatibility with my bike?
Check hub type (e.g., 12x100mm/12x142mm for disc brakes), rim brake compatibility, and tire size. Most wheels fit 700c frames; consult our staff for your bike’s specs.

6. Are these wheels suitable for beginners?
Yes! Alloy wheels or shallower carbon wheels (40-50mm) are beginner-friendly, offering speed and handling without the crosswind challenges of deep-section wheels.
