Its 45mm aerodynamic carbon rims provide an efficient, stable ride, while the modern 25mm internal width supports wider tyres for improved grip, comfort and control. At just 1575g per set, the CCR45 delivers responsive acceleration without sacrificing strength or versatility.
The hooked, tubeless-ready carbon rims are paired with reliable ERE IONA II hubs, Alpina Extralite straight-pull spokes and durable brass locking nipples. Whether you are chasing speed on an endurance road ride or exploring rough gravel backroads, the Explorator CCR45 is ready for the adventure.
