Roval Rapide Sprint CLX Carbon/ Black 700c front

Season:2025

Brand:Specialized

Code:30025-6500

The Roval Rapide CLX Sprint is built to get to the finish line first.

Since 90% of aero benefit comes from the front wheel, these wheels feature a 63mm deep front rim to slice through the wind, and a lightweight 58mm rear with carbon spokes for blistering acceleration when it counts. Charge full gas with confidence: FlatStop bead hooks demand 39% more force to flat, delivering race-day reliability that lasts to the line. Roval is shifting the aero paradigm—depth redefined for absolute speed.

Wheels have always had a deeper rear, but 90% of aero gains come from the front. The Rapide CLX Sprint flips the script with a 63mm front and 58mm rear for maximum speed, punch, and toughness, resulting in a fast wheelset in the last 250m. This design puts you 18cm ahead in the last 250m.

Engineered for ultimate performance, Roval wheels and Specialized tires are designed together to maximize aerodynamics, low weight, and puncture resistance. Pair the Roval Rapide CLX Sprint with the RapidAir TLR tire to help prevent flats, thanks to the co-developed FlatStop rim bead, aerodynamic design, and strategic tread geometry.
