Innovative Rim Technology for all Riders
” Our new Piedmont Race gravel rims come with modern inner widths of 26mm in Carbon and 24mm in Alloy, providing exceptional stability and versatility for various tire sizes and pressures. The rims, featuring a low profile height paired with double-butted spokes, are designed for optimal compliance, grip, and reduced rider fatigue. Whether you’re a seasoned gravel rider or new to the scene, the Piedmont
Race wheels offer a dynamic and responsive ride that’s second to none.”
Choose your Ride: Carbon vs Alloy
- CARBON RIMS: Made from high-modulus carbon fiber, these rims weigh a mere 340g, promising top-of-the-class performance with a no-fault lifetime rim replacement warranty. Confidence in your wheels matters and the Piedmont Race rims deliver.
- ALLOY RIMS: With a 19.5mm profile height and a weight of 415g, the alloy option balances performance and durability, without breaking the bank.
Gravel-Specific Hub Design for Seamless Adventures
“At the heart of the Piedmont Race wheels is the e*thirteen Race Straight-pull Hub, designed by e*thirteen for optimal weight, durability, and serviceability in a svelte, highly refined package. The 4-Pawl / 3° engagement system ensures efficient power transfer and rapid acceleration, making every ride smooth and enjoyable.”
Quality that Lasts
“Backed by a 5-year warranty on hub and alloy rim components and a no-fault lifetime warranty on carbon rims, the Piedmont Race wheels are hand-built using premium components, including Sapim D-light spokes and Sapim Secure Lock alloy nipples. Our hassle-free tubeless setup, featuring High-Pressure Gravel Tubeless Tape and Quick Fill Tubeless Valves, means you spend less time on maintenance and more on riding.”
