These wheels will suit you if you are after the best value for money race wheels, backed by a global lifetime warranty.

The VORTEX series are available in TRACK versions!

What did we do to be able to deliver you these wheels at such a great price? 

We examined every component of the ELEMENTAL wheel and looked at how we could make it less expensive without compromising quality:

Things we have changed:

• The VORTEX rim is made from T700 carbon fiber instead of T800.
• The VORTEX rims are a conventional V shape, making the moulding process easier.
• The VORTEX hubs, while using the ELEMENTAL shell, have sealed steel bearings instead of hyrid ceramic.
• We are using slighly heavier Pillar spokes instead of CX Ray.

Things we have not changed:

• We are still using Sapim secure lock nipples.
• We are using the same brake surface technology.

Why choose the VORTEX series?

• $ for $ we believe the VORTEX series are the best value for money, reliable race wheels you can buy.
• From a performance standpoint the only measurable difference between the VORTEX series and the ELEMENTAL series is in relation to cross wind handling and a slight weight difference.
• The VORTEX series have a track option. The V Shape rim profile is better at handling the EXTREME power - related stresses of track racing.

So what does the ELEMENTAL series have that the VORTEX does not?

• The VORTEX series is NOT UCI APPROVED.
• The VORTEX series wheels are slightly heavier than the ELEMENTAL series.
• The VORTEX series has a conventional V shape profile.  This means that the handling will not be as precise as the ELEMENTALS in extreme cross winds.
• The VORTEX series use the ELEMENTAL hub shell but steel bearings rather than ceramic.
• The VORTEX series wheels are not available as tubeless - ready.
• Other detailed differences are referenced below.
