Aerodinamica massima

The heart of each VINCI TORE wheel is a redesigned rim, widened to 28mm and a more rounded profile of U + shape. Its design was modeled on the construction of the cockpit of the SR-71B reconnaissance aircraft SR and analyzes of the results of hundreds of studies on aerodynamics. Such a profile allows for a significant reduction in air resistance, even crosswinds.

What’s more, the bead of the rim with increased width, was designed specifically for use respectively with the tubular or tyres with a width of 23-28mm, improving tubular/tyre alignment on the rim and reducing air turbulence between the tubular/tyre and rim while improving the aerodynamics of the whole piece.

By taking care of every detail, we have decided to hide nipples inside the rim. Traditional, external nipples make up for the micro air turbulence thereby creating additional drag. The transfer of nipples inside the rim is another step in the direction of ideal wheels and the use of first-class butted, aerodynamic Sapim CX-Ray spokes was the obvious choice.

Regardless of whether it is a lonely training session, a deadly race or a race against time for the triathlon route, the wind will be your enemy, and the VINCI TORE wheels will be your weapon.

Incredibile rigidità

Only exceptionally rigid wheels are able to transfer 100% of your power to the tyre and give you incredible acceleration. Therefore, the stiffness of the whole structure was one of the priorities for the constructors of VINCI TORE wheels.

The combination of different types of carbon fiber, the use of high TG epoxy resins, reinforcement surrounding the nipples in order to maximize the spoke tension and punching their heads at the hub flanges is only part of the technology that we have used to make each turn of the crank even more effective.

Hand assembling spokes with attention to exact maximum tension of each and using the patented three three-stage pawls system overlapping at the same time with 9 of the 48 teeth in the freehub – all in order so that the wheel reaction on each your spurt is immediate.

Applying the technique of punching the head of the spokes ensures the correct distribution of stress in the wheel and the corresponding transfer of power during acceleration and stability of the wheels during hard braking. When eventually you will need to slow down, the basalt braking surface will certainly prove helpful.

In order to prevent the loss of precious watts and provide amazing rigidity of the whole wheel, instead of the traditional, thin QR axle, we used a patented rigid one at the same time lowering the weight of the entire piece of integrated clamping system HubClosure which is of course compatible with any standard road frame.

Acceleration, getaway, dynamically exiting the corners and then the finishing meters – that’s for those parts of each race or training where you will see the advantage of VINCI TORE!

Eccellente trazione e ridotta resistenza al rotolamento

Extended inner rim bead width (25mm for the tubular rims and 20,2mm for the clincher rims) means a tubular or tyre is better placed on the rim, being a bit more flattened. In this way it not only improves its traction, but also decreases rolling resistance of the rubber.
The contact of surface with the ground remains the same, but the shape changes – it is wider but shorter. As confirmed by numerous studies, a more round than oblong shape of the tyre footprint generates less rolling resistance than narrow, but long track tyres or tubulars placed on a narrow rim.

VINCI TORE rims have been optimized for use with tubulars or tyres with a width of 23-28mm. TORE rims brake track width (center) is 26,75mm and max rim width is 28mm, what makes the VINCI TORE rims among the broadest and most aerodynamic on the market, and moreover provide an extremely low rolling resistance.

In striving for perfection and reducing all possible resistance, we could not fail to mention hub bearings. For this we have developed TLF TM Ceramic Bearings – bearings from start to finish designed for one purpose – to minimize frictional resistance in the bicycle hub. Optional VINCI TORE wheels will save your valuable watts by reducing friction to a minimum. Bicycle wheels have never rolled along so lightly.

Each rubber based on VINCI TORE wheels automatically gets better. Indeed it gets to the rim, which is designed to squeeze out its maximum.

Peso ridotto

Through a combination of different types of carbon fiber, hightest grade TG epoxy resins and proper position of the individual layers of carbon fiber, VINCI TORE rims is characterized not only by unique stiffness, but also its low weight. Supplementing the whole ‘set’ with the top VINCI SF-101F/SF-101R hubs and great, extremely lightweight Sapim CX-Ray spokes which are stronger than most top models and means that with VINCI TORE wheels, every climb and every acceleration is easier .

You will surely appreciate details such as the use of additional carbon fiber only in and around the nipples thereby reducing the weight of the rim of only 3-4 grams, when you’re fighting gravity on the steepest sections of daily training or the most important race of the season.

You will feel the lightness and stiffness of VINCI TORE wheels in every situation. These wheels not only exceptionally climb up every mountain easily, but also perfectly accelerate due to their low weight.

The VINCI TORE wheel is the perfect support at every climb. Accelerating with such a light and rigid wheel becomes very easy even when the trail leads uphill.

Resistenza superiore alla media

Strengthening the key elements of the rim, the back ground of the design the ‘double triangle’ or innovative pawls system and advanced quality control systems is all there so that you can enjoy the VINCI TORE wheels for a really long time.

Using the highest grade TG resins combined with basalt brake surfaces provides resistance to the rim at a high temperature occurring during braking, and prevents micro-deformation even when the temperature exceeds 2400C.

For the rims not to have a weak point which are all kinds of connections at different parts of any design, they are made continuously in one piece using technology known as “one piece molding”.

Hundreds of training sessions and starts, often in terrible conditions is the real test of strength for you and your equipment. VINCI TORE wheels pass it without a problem.

Three Carbon Fiber Types

Różne typy włókien węglowych
It is normal that most manufacturers opt for the use of only one type of carbon fiber in the production of the rim. The solution in fact significantly simplifies the production process. However, the forces acting on various portions of the rim whilst riding significantly differ from each other. Therefore, in some of its parts the most appropriate will be the use ofT1000 TG lead fiber and M400 or T700 in other fibers.

Rims made from different types of carbon fibers may thus be characterised by greater stiffness and strength. Therefore, in order to provide you with the best possible wheel rim, we use three different types of carbon fiber (TG T1000, M400 and T700) in the production of VINCI SL. VINCI TORE rims are a combination of TG T1000 and T700 fibers.

Super wide U+ shape rim profile

Ulepszony, najbardziej aerodynamiczny profil obręczy U+ shape

The “heart” of each VINCI TORE wheel is its extremely broad, carbon rim. The innovative cross-section, which is based on a modernized, more rounded U + shape profile enlarged to 28 mm has enabled the aerodynamics to be improved and allows the tyre / tubular on the rim to be positioned better, which means improved traction while reducing the rolling resistance.

Development of the shape of the VINCI TORE rim was inspired by the construction of the cockpit of the SR-71B – the fastest reconnaissance aircraft. The oval, extremely wide, cross-section rim which is devoid of any sharp ‘edges’ provides maximum reduction of air resistance. Importantly, the aerodynamics of the rim was developed from the very beginning with a view to using tyres or the tubular with a width of 23-27mm. Its specially widened rim improves the aerodynamics of the whole system, reducing air turbulence generated between a wide tyre and narrower rim.

The unique symmetrical shape of the entire set with each side being streamlined makes the wheel not only create less friction with the lateral gusts of wind, but also remains stable, because it reduces the force with which the wind pushes the rim to the side. This allows the use of somewhat higher cones, even in windy conditions.

HubClosure integrated skewer

Zintegrowany z piastą zacisk piasty

The patented hub calliper system “HubClosure”, instead of standard quick relace, is an innovative solution to significantly improve the rigidity and allowing a reduction in the weight of the wheel + skewer set.

To prevent the loss of precious watts and provide amazing rigidity of the whole wheel, instead of the traditional, thin QR axle in hubs, QR VINCI SF-101R uses a patented, extremely rigid calliper system known as “HubClosure”. This solution is still compatible with any standard road frame and involves replacing the standard hub stoppers with patented closure-cap stoppers which also serve as the hub axle. With increased rigidity, it is possible to use a larger clamping force, the weight of the entire set is reduced, and aerodynamics (thanks to removal of the massive lever clamp) – is improved. At each acceleration you feel the difference! Read more…

14:7 spoke lacing pattern

Zintegrowany z piastą zacisk piasty

Application of a 14: 7 spoke lacing pattern (14 spokes on the drive side and 7 spokes on the non-drive side) ensures a better distribution of tension than in the standard symmetric pattern. The forces that act on the rear wheel drive side are incomparably greater than those found on the other side of the wheel.

Therefore, we decided to increase the number of the spokes on the drive side in the VINCI TORE wheels and simultaneously reduce the other.

The effects which have thus been achieved are amazing: reduced tension of the spokes, increased lateral stiffness of the wheel, reduced vibration and improved power transfer and the transfer of torque.

The wheels not only get better speed but also provide better and stable handling.

Three-steps pawls and 48 teeth

System trzech potrójnych zapadek i 48 zębów

Since the number of teeth in the cog depends on how quickly this ‘gearing’ follows and transfers power to the wheel.

We used 48 teeth in our hub to ensure dynamic wheel reaction every time you accelerate. This means that ,gearing’ occurs by as much as 48 times for each full rotation of the cassette. The wheel reaction means your acceleration will therefore be almost immediate.

The increased number of teeth means these must be smaller. Therefore, most manufacturers are concerned about their durability and have deliberately decided to delay the wheel reaction on acceleration and use a modest amount.

There is no room for compromise in the top models of VINCI wheel, therefore we used the patented system of three, three-degree-pawls in the VINCI SF-101R hub, each of which engages simultaneously on three teeth, thereby spreading the load. The total strength of this system is so much greater than traditional freehubs with up to twice the fewer teeth, and the reaction rate remains incomparable. The Increased total area of support of teeth ratchet also means better power transfer from the freehub body to the wheel.

Spoke Head Punch

'Dobijanie' szprych przy kołnierzach piast

The head of each individual spoke is carefully “punched” at the hub flanges, according to the wheelbuilding technology developed by Gerd Schraner.

We carry out this activity 100% manually ensuring a proper finish and an excellent head seating of each of the spokes in the hub flange. This ensures that each spoke has excellent support. Only then tension in the wheel is distributed evenly and the whole structure is stiffer. The difference is felt in particular when braking and accelerating.

TLF™ Ceramic Bearings

Full ceramic bearings for bike wheel hub

TLFTM Ceramic Bearings are bearings providing maximum reduction of friction resistance. They have been developed from the very beginning designed for use in bicycle hubs and finely crafted from a combination of the best ceramic and have been specially lubricated. TLFTM full ceramic bearings is the solution which cyclists have been waiting for and for whom each saved watt is important.

TLFTM Bearings balls are made of silicon nitride – the highest quality ceramic with an incredible hardness (45% harder than other ceramics), low weight (40% lighter than other ceramics) and high-precision processing.

TLFTM Ceramic Bearings are a guarantee of maximum reduction of friction.  Minimalizing this resistance is achieved by:

  • limiting the balls contact surface with the bearing race, thanks to the material being 45% harder than other ceramics,
  • up to 10 times smoother than standard bearings, perfectly spherical surface of the balls,
  • the guarantee of continuous maintenance of a perfectly spherical shape ensures excellent rolling thanks to high resistance of the material to micro deformations caused by ‘crushing’ of balls between races,
  • increased module of elasticity, for smooth and even turning,
  • an extremely thin grease with reduced viscosity providing an additional, significant reduction of friction and resistance generated by dense, sticky grease is designed for use in TLFTM ceramic balls bearings,
  • greater durability and excellent resistance to corrosion ensures the maintenance of these properties for a long time.

The combination of these properties in the TLFTM Ceramic Bearings reduces friction to a minimum, saving you precious watts with each rotation of the wheel. The faster you go, the greater the benefits you obtain. The ‘side effect’ of using TLFTM Ceramic Bearings is a significant reduction in weight – 7 g in the case of a set of VINCI hubs. These bearings are standard used in VINCI SL wheels and optional for the VINCI TORE and VINCI RAPID wheels series.

Internal nipples

Wewnętrzne nyple

Traditional nipples placed on the outside of the rim cause micro air turbulence which have a negative impact on the aerodynamics of the wheel.

The solution to this problem is to move the nipples inside the rim. Hiding nipples at the rim reduces the overall attack surface of the wheel and eliminates the turbulence generated around the irregular shapes of external nipples.

Furthermore, when using internal nipples, the holes in the rim are smaller, and the support surface of the nipple is greater. This allows for a much greater tension of the spokes, which tranforms into increased rigidity of the wheel.

Wheels with internal nipples are not only more aerodynamic, but also have better acceleration!

Spoke tension chart

Wykres naprężeń szprych dla każdego koła

While creating VINCI wheels we take care of even the smallest detail. We know everything about our wheels and we want you to know about them as much as possible. Therefore, to each of our produced wheels we provide a tension graph which presents the exact value of the tension of each individual spoke in the wheels which is specifically your copy.

Doing this will give you the confidence that your wheels are perfectly braided, and we facilitate from the quality control process and also it allows us to create perfect, extremely rigid wheels.

Sapim CX-Ray spokes

Znakomite i lekkie szprychy aero

Considered as one of the best and strongest spokes in the world, and at the same time extremely light (4,25g at 260mm) Sapim U-shaped CX-Ray spokes with their extremely aerodynamic profile are an excellent choice for wheels of the highest class. Sapim designers combined all three qualities of amazing fatigue testing results, the highest aerodynamics and extremely low weight by creating the Sapim CX-Ray spoke.

The use of these top spokes in the VINCI TORE wheels helped to create a light and rigid set of wheels ensuring the transfer of every watt of your power to the wheel rim with the refined aerodynamic cross-section reducing air resistance to a minimum.

Basalt braking surface

Powierzchnia hamująca obręczy pokryta bazaltem

To improve braking efficiency and resistance to high temperatures occurring in the rim during prolonged braking, the brake surface of each rim has been covered with basalt.

Basalt braking surface combined with the highest quality TG resin means that braking at TORE and SL rims is maintained even when the temperature reaches 240 ° C.

Higher braking efficiency gives you the opportunity of deceleration before every turn. You gain fractions of seconds that could decide on the final victory.

Super wide bead

Poszerzona wewnętrzna szerokość rantów obręczy

VINCI TORE rims are designed to perfectly co-ordinate with the tyres or tubular tyres of a 23-27mm width. For this purpose we also increased the inner diameter of the rim to an appropriate 25mm respectively for the tubular rim and 20,2 mm for the clincher rim.

Thanks to this, the tyre or tubular tyre is better placed on the rim, which results not only in improved traction, but also the reduction of the rolling resistance. The contact surface with the ground remains the same, but the shape changes is wider but shorter. As confirmed by numerous studies, the more round than oblong shape of the tyre footprint generates less rolling resistance than a narrow, but long track tyres or tubular imposed on a narrow rim.

Extra carbon fiber strip

Karbonowe wzmocnienie okolic nypli

Surrounding the spoke holes, each rim is reinforced with an additional carbon fiber bar. Its precise arrangement allows for a much greater tension of the spokes, which results in a high rigidity of the wheel. You will feel the difference after each acceleration!

Furthermore, the use of additional fibers exactly where needed has allowed extra reduction of the rim though minimum weight reduction.

Alloy 7075 T6 nipples

Sapim alloy inverted nipples up-side-down

Made from the best available aluminum alloy (7075 T6) aluminum Sapim nipples are not only more than three times lighter solution than standard brass nipples, but also ensure perfect nipple alignment into the correct angle and a maximum reduction of stress arising between the spoke and nipple.

This provides a strong spoke tension without damaging the nipple or bending spokes when connected with the nipple.

Advanced quality control systems

Wysokie wymagania jakościowe

To make sure that the VINCI wheels not only meet safety requirements, but also additional, above-average quality standards, we have subjected them to advanced control tests.

We use standards in line with SGS, CEN and EN 14781 in the production of our wheels.

Hand-built

Ręcznie zaplatane koła

The wheel assembling is one of the most important steps during its construction. It is true that even a wheel built on the highest quality components will not be sufficiently rigid if the spokes are not perfectly spliced.

Therefore, knowing that only fitted mechanic is able to sense the subtle differences between individual copies of the rim and spokes, we do not entrust the process of assembling the wheels to any machine and we do it 100% manually with great attention to detail.

In addition, we use internal nipples during the assemblin of TORE VINCI and VINCI SL wheels, allowing the use of greater tension of spokes and spoke heads finishing at the hub flanges, so we are sure that they are perfectly embedded in them. And with each spliced wheel we deliver a graph showing the tension of each of the spokes in this particular item.

One piece molding

Konstrukcja obręczy monocoque

For the rims not to have a weak point which are all kinds of connections at different parts of any design, they are made continuously in one piece using technology known as “one piece molding”.

Thanks to this the rims are perfectly symmetrical and roll evenly.

Double triangle design

Karbonowy rant obręczy oparty o podwójny trójkąt

The VINCI clincher rims rant is adapted to the tyre based on the design of the triangle. This solution increases the strength of the rim on the impact generated when riding on the roads of poor quality.

Furthermore, this design provides adequate support upstand of the rim, when the side surface of the impact of compressive forces, which ensures stability of the alloy during hard braking.

Hight TG epoxy resins

Żywica epoksydowa

Using the highest grade TG epoxy resins increases rim resistance to high temperatures. The rims are also dimensionally stable and retain their rigidity even during prolonged braking.

Hight TG resins is a guarantee that the rims are resistant to micro-resistance and retain 100% of their rigidity regardless of the conditions.

Ultralight construction

Redukcja wagi bez utraty sztywności

A detailed analysis of the distribution of all the forces acting on the wheel while riding allows the use of appropriate types of carbon fibers exactly where it is needed.

The combination of knowledge, research, best materials and advanced technology have enabled us to create extremely lightweight wheels, which despite its low weight are extremely rigid and durable.

COLLEGAMENTO DI 20 AVANZATE TECNOLOGIE

Per creare le migliori ruote si deve ricorrere alle soluzioni più avanzate. Così abbiamo fatto progettando la serie VINCI TORE. Queste ruote sono una attenta combinazione di 20 tecnologie e soluzioni avanzate.

VINCI SL SERIE

Incontra la serie di ruote VINCI SL. Progettata con pensiero dei sprint e tappe di montagna. La più leggera e più rigida. Accelerazione istantanea, anche sulle piste più ripide.

Le ruote VINCI SL sono state progettate con pensiero per accelerazioni improvvise e ripide salite.

L’obiettivo dei tecnici in via di sviluppo della serie VINCI SL era quello di creare le ruote più dinamici nel mondo. Ruote, che ogni watt generato dal tuo potere, immediatamente e senza perdita cambierà nella velocità. Ruote che saranno imbattibili in ogni fine, in qualsiasi uscita dinamica da una curva e su ogni tentativo di fuggire dal gruppo. Ruote in modo da poter lasciare rivali dietro di te in qualsiasi momento.

Per raggiungere questo obiettivo è stato necessario collegare insieme due caratteristiche: elevata rigidità e peso ridotto. Per creare le ruote perfette, collegando insieme questi due parametri, teoricamente contrastanti per la produzione di ruote VINCI SL, si ha usato 18 tecnologie e soluzioni avanzate, spesso presi in prestito da settori più sviluppati come l’aerospaziale o l’energia. Il risultato sono le ruote ulta leggeri, che con la sua rigidità spesso superano i modelli anche molto più pesanti. Disponibili sotto tubolare, in due altezze di cono – 30mm o 46mm, vi forniranno non solo la dinamica senza precedenti, ma anche faranno che ogni passo carraio diventerà incomparabilmente più leggero.

Scopri i vantaggi delle ruote VINCI SL e le tecnologie utilizzate nella loro produzione e scopri che là, dove conta la dinamica e il peso ridotto non c’è migliore scelta.

Accelerazione incredibile

Quick response of the wheel to every movement of the crank thanks to 48 teeth in each freehub. It’s the perfect connection of transferring energy through the patented interlocking of three tumblers of 9 tooth at a time. Improved energy transfer through 14:7 spoke pattern. The incredible rigidity of lacing is possible by using internal nipples, strengthening of holes with additional layer of carbon and the use of spoke head punching techniques heads when hand assembled the spokes.
The incomparable rigidity of the rim through the appropriate use of up to 3 types of carbon fibers and fulfill their core ultra-lightweight and exceptionally rigid structure of the PMI. The HubClosure patented clamping system for maximum clamping rigidity allows a reduction in weight of the whole kit. TLF™ Ceramic Bearings (The Lowest Friction Technology), which reduce friction and emerging resistance to an unprecedented minimum. And above all – an incredibly low weight of the wheelset – 959 grams for the 30mm cone and 1069 for 46mm rim.

Imagine how wheels accelerate when they combine all of these features. Imagine how easy it is to win every sprint and, catch up with every escape. Feel what VINCI technologists felt designing the SL series and what each rider of VINCI SL wheels feels. The unprecedented lightness and rigidity, incredible acceleration and ease of climbing the steepest hills culminating in the joy of victory.

It’s dynamic out of the corners, in the getaway, in the finishing meters and even the steep inclines – the extremely rigid and extremely lightweight VINCI SL wheels have been designed to provide you an advantage on those parts of the route.

Ultra leggere

When creating the most dynamic wheels, which are also an excellent choice for the mountain stages, weight reduction is one of the priorities.

Therefore, three different types of carbon fibers were used in the production of VINCI SL wheels. In addition, to enable a significant reduction in weight while increasing rigidity, the rim interior was filled with innovative, ultra-lightweight and exceptionally rigid structure of PMI, previously used, among others, on helicopter blades. The result is an extremely low weight.

Combining them with excellent VINCI SF-101 hubs using probably the best available Sapim CX-super spokes on the market has resulted in a set of wheels with a weight 959 g for 30 mm rim and 1069 g for 46mm rim. An innovative clamping system, HubClosure means that the wheel together with the clamp weighs only 33 g more! You gain an additional about 61 g compared to a standard clamp set.

When you win ‘by the thickness of a tyre’, when with your last breath you leap ‘to a winning getaway and ‘wrench off’ your last opponent just before the end of a steep approach – then you’ll appreciate the effort of the VINCI SL wheel designers and every detail that has enabled you.

Il più basso resistenza al rotolamento

Even extremely light and rigid wheels will not be ideal if the bearings in their hubs will constitute a significant resistance to waste your precious watts. Therefore, the VINCI SL series uses, in our opinion, the best available market solutions – Ceramic TLF™ (The Lowest Friction technology) Bearings.

These have been developed from the very beginning and designed for use in the hub of the bicycle wheel, with a 10 times sleeker ball surface and smoother rolling. This means increased micro-deformation strength, maintaining excellent properties even when working under heavy load. There is also specially designed lubrication oil, which does not generate the resistance of conventional lubricants.

Have you dreamt of wheels in which speeding up will be extremely easy, and once boosted they will roll and roll? VINCI SL with ceramic TLF™ bearings will make this dream come true.

Resistenza superiore alla media

Strengthening the key elements of the rim, the innovative pawl system or advanced quality control systems all mean that you can enjoy VINCI SL wheels for a really long time.

Using the highest grade TG resins combined with basalt brake surface provides resistance to the rim with the high temperature occurring during braking, and prevents micro-deformation, even when the temperature exceeds 2400C.

In order for the rims not to have a ‘weak point ‘where are all kinds of connections of individual pieces of each design made continuously in one piece using technology known as ‘one piece molding’.

Hundreds of training sessions and starts, often in terrible conditions – this is the real test of strength for you and your equipment. VINCI wheels pass it without any problem.

Three Carbon fiber types

Różne typy włókien węglowych

It is normal that most manufacturers opt for the use of only one type of carbon fiber in the production of the rim. The solution in fact significantly simplifies the production process. However, the forces acting on various portions of the rim whilst riding significantly differ from each other. Therefore, in some of its parts the most appropriate will be the use ofT1000 TG lead fiber and M400 or T700 in other fibers.

Rims made from different types of carbon fibers may thus be characterised by greater stiffness and strength. Therefore, in order to provide you with the best possible wheel rim, we use three different types of carbon fiber (TG T1000, M400 and T700) in the production of VINCI SL. VINCI TORE rims are a combination of TG T1000 and T700 fibers.

PMI core structure

Ulepszony, najbardziej aerodynamiczny profil obręczy U+ shape

In order to create extremely rigid and extremely light rims we have to resort to more advanced technology. To beat the competition you need more than just carefully arranged best combinations of carbon fibers. To create something amazing you have to reach further, to the most advanced and innovative solutions.

PMI CORE STRUCTURE – an innovative structure of super-light and extremely rigid foam designed to connect to the carbon fiber frames which are used, among others, in aerospace, energy or healthcare. Wherever relatively big items must be extremely lightweight yet extremely rigid, eg. in the production of helicopter rotor blades, where, despite the incredible burden, super-light carbon-fiber blades cannot flex for even a millimeter.

You can now feel the stiffness that meets even the loads generated by a helicopter engine in the VINCI SL wheel. The specially polished carbon fiber braid combined with the extremely lightweight PMI frame. The rims are not hollow, but based on the full structure of the rigid foam. This combination means the rim does not bend in any direction and enables the use of thinner walls and a significant reduction in weight of the rim.

No matter how good the wheels you currently have are, you will feel cosmic stiffness and lightness of PMI technology upon each acceleration. PMI CORE STRUCTURE is a solution that could set new standards for the construction of carbon bicycle parts.

HubClosure integrated skewer

Zintegrowany z piastą zacisk piasty

The patented hub calliper system “HubClosure”, instead of standard quick relace, is an innovative solution to significantly improve the rigidity and allowing a reduction in the weight of the wheel + skewer set.

To prevent the loss of precious watts and provide amazing rigidity of the whole wheel, instead of the traditional, thin QR axle in hubs, QR VINCI SF-101R uses a patented, extremely rigid calliper system known as “HubClosure”. This solution is still compatible with any standard road frame and involves replacing the standard hub stoppers with patented closure-cap stoppers which also serve as the hub axle. With increased rigidity, it is possible to use a larger clamping force, the weight of the entire set is reduced, and aerodynamics (thanks to removal of the massive lever clamp) – is improved. At each acceleration you feel the difference! Read more…

Application of a 14: 7 spoke lacing pattern (14 spokes on the drive side and 7 spokes on the non-drive side) ensures a better distribution of tension than in the standard symmetric pattern. The forces that act on the rear wheel drive side are incomparably greater than those found on the other side of the wheel.

Therefore, we decided to increase the number of the spokes on the drive side in the VINCI SL wheels and simultaneously reduce the other.

The effects which have thus been achieved are amazing: reduced tension of the spokes, increased lateral stiffness of the wheel, reduced vibration and improved power transfer and the transfer of torque.

The wheels not only get better speed but also provide better and stable handling.

TLF™ Ceramic Bearings

Full ceramic bearings for bike wheel hub

TLFTM Ceramic Bearings are bearings providing maximum reduction of friction resistance. They have been developed from the very beginning designed for use in bicycle hubs and finely crafted from a combination of the best ceramic and have been specially lubricated. TLFTM full ceramic bearings is the solution which cyclists have been waiting for and for whom each saved watt is important.

TLFTM Bearings balls are made of silicon nitride – the highest quality ceramic with an incredible hardness (45% harder than other ceramics), low weight (40% lighter than other ceramics) and high-precision processing.

TLFTM Ceramic Bearings are a guarantee of maximum reduction of friction.  Minimalizing this resistance is achieved by:

  • limiting the balls contact surface with the bearing race, thanks to the material being 45% harder than other ceramics,
  • up to 10 times smoother than standard bearings, perfectly spherical surface of the balls,
  • the guarantee of continuous maintenance of a perfectly spherical shape ensures excellent rolling thanks to high resistance of the material to micro deformations caused by ‘crushing’ of balls between races,
  • increased module of elasticity, for smooth and even turning,
  • an extremely thin grease with reduced viscosity providing an additional, significant reduction of friction and resistance generated by dense, sticky grease is designed for use in TLFTM ceramic balls bearings,
  • greater durability and excellent resistance to corrosion ensures the maintenance of these properties for a long time.

The combination of these properties in the TLFTM Ceramic Bearings reduces friction to a minimum, saving you precious watts with each rotation of the wheel. The faster you go, the greater the benefits you obtain. The ‘side effect’ of using TLFTM Ceramic Bearings is a significant reduction in weight – 7 g in the case of a set of VINCI hubs. These bearings are standard used in VINCI SL wheels and optional for the VINCI TORE and VINCI RAPID wheels series.

Spoke head punch

'Dobijanie' szprych przy kołnierzach piast

The head of each individual spoke is carefully “punched” at the hub flanges, according to the wheelbuilding technology developed by Gerd Schraner.

We carry out this activity 100% manually ensuring a proper finish and an excellent head seating of each of the spokes in the hub flange. This ensures that each spoke has excellent support. Only then tension in the wheel is distributed evenly and the whole structure is stiffer. The difference is felt in particular when braking and accelerating.

Three-steps pawls and 48 teeth

System trzech potrójnych zapadek i 48 zębów

Since the number of teeth in the cog depends on how quickly this ‘gearing’ follows and transfers power to the wheel.

We used 48 teeth in our hub to ensure dynamic wheel reaction every time you accelerate. This means that ,gearing’ occurs by as much as 48 times for each full rotation of the cassette. The wheel reaction means your acceleration will therefore be almost immediate.

The increased number of teeth means these must be smaller. Therefore, most manufacturers are concerned about their durability and have deliberately decided to delay the wheel reaction on acceleration and use a modest amount.

There is no room for compromise in the top models of VINCI wheel, therefore we used the patented system of three, three-degree-pawls in the VINCI SF-101R hub, each of which engages simultaneously on three teeth, thereby spreading the load. The total strength of this system is so much greater than traditional freehubs with up to twice the fewer teeth, and the reaction rate remains incomparable. The Increased total area of support of teeth ratchet also means better power transfer from the freehub body to the wheel.

Sapim CX-Super spokes

Szprychy sapim super CX

Referred to as the lightest aero spokes in the world, the incredible Sapim CX-Super durable spokes are the best choice for wheels of the highest class.

The use of special, improved stainless steel alloy has enabled the Sapim technologists to obtain a spoke, which combines the previously unheard of properties and remains unsurpassed for many manufacturers.

The exceptionally aerodynamic U-shaped profile, 17% reduction in weight relative to previously top CX-Ray spokes, simultaneously with more than 21% increase in strength properties make the wheel spokes presently constructed as not only lightweight, but rigid. Costly materials and technologies used in the production of these spokes make them probably the most expensive steel spokes on the market, but while designing the top VINCI SL model wheels the selection of the best spokes was the obvious solution.

Importantly, despite their low weight, the spokes are strong enough that even DH competitors successfully use them in their downhill bikes.

Internal nipples

Wewnętrzne nyple

Traditional nipples placed on the outside of the rim cause micro air turbulence which have a negative impact on the aerodynamics of the wheel.

The solution to this problem is to move the nipples inside the rim. Hiding nipples at the rim reduces the overall attack surface of the wheel and eliminates the turbulence generated around the irregular shapes of external nipples.

Furthermore, when using internal nipples, the holes in the rim are smaller, and the support surface of the nipple is greater. This allows for a much greater tension of the spokes, which tranforms into increased rigidity of the wheel.

Wheels with internal nipples are not only more aerodynamic, but also have better acceleration!

Spoke tension chart

Wykres naprężeń szprych dla każdego koła

While creating VINCI wheels we take care of even the smallest detail. We know everything about our wheels and we want you to know about them as much as possible. Therefore, to each of our produced wheels we provide a tension graph which presents the exact value of the tension of each individual spoke in the wheels which is specifically your copy.

Doing this will give you the confidence that your wheels are perfectly braided, and we facilitate from the quality control process and also it allows us to create perfect, extremely rigid wheels.

Basalt braking surface

Powierzchnia hamująca obręczy pokryta bazaltem

To improve braking efficiency and resistance to high temperatures occurring in the rim during prolonged braking, the brake surface of each rim has been covered with basalt.

Basalt braking surface combined with the highest quality TG resin means that braking at TORE and SL rims is maintained even when the temperature reaches 240 ° C.

Higher braking efficiency gives you the opportunity of deceleration before every turn. You gain fractions of seconds that could decide on the final victory.

Extra carbon fiber strip

Karbonowe wzmocnienie okolic nypli

Surrounding the spoke holes, each rim is reinforced with an additional carbon fiber bar. Its precise arrangement allows for a much greater tension of the spokes, which results in a high rigidity of the wheel. You will feel the difference after each acceleration!

Furthermore, the use of additional fibers exactly where needed has allowed extra reduction of the rim though minimum weight reduction.

Advanced quality control systems

Wysokie wymagania jakościowe

To make sure that the VINCI wheels not only meet safety requirements, but also additional, above-average quality standards, we have subjected them to advanced control tests.

We use standards in line with SGS, CEN and EN 14781 in the production of our wheels.

Hand-built

Ręcznie zaplatane koła

The wheel assembling is one of the most important steps during its construction. It is true that even a wheel built on the highest quality components will not be sufficiently rigid if the spokes are not perfectly spliced.

Therefore, knowing that only fitted mechanic is able to sense the subtle differences between individual copies of the rim and spokes, we do not entrust the process of assembling the wheels to any machine and we do it 100% manually with great attention to detail.

In addition, we use internal nipples during the assemblin of TORE VINCI and VINCI SL wheels, allowing the use of greater tension of spokes and spoke heads finishing at the hub flanges, so we are sure that they are perfectly embedded in them. And with each spliced wheel we deliver a graph showing the tension of each of the spokes in this particular item.

One piece molding

Konstrukcja obręczy monocoque

For the rims not to have a weak point which are all kinds of connections at different parts of any design, they are made continuously in one piece using technology known as “one piece molding”.

Thanks to this the rims are perfectly symmetrical and roll evenl

Alloy 7075 T6 nipples

Sapim alloy inverted nipples up-side-down

Made from the best available aluminum alloy (7075 T6) aluminum Sapim nipples are not only more than three times lighter solution than standard brass nipples, but also ensure perfect nipple alignment into the correct angle and a maximum reduction of stress arising between the spoke and nipple.

This provides a strong spoke tension without damaging the nipple or bending spokes when connected with the nipple.

Hight TG epoxy resins

Żywica epoksydowa

Using the highest grade TG epoxy resins increases rim resistance to high temperatures. The rims are also dimensionally stable and retain their rigidity even during prolonged braking.

Hight TG resins is a guarantee that the rims are resistant to micro-resistance and retain 100% of their rigidity regardless of the conditions.

Ultralight construction

Redukcja wagi bez utraty sztywności

A detailed analysis of the distribution of all the forces acting on the wheel while riding allows the use of appropriate types of carbon fibers exactly where it is needed.

The combination of knowledge, research, best materials and advanced technology have enabled us to create extremely lightweight wheels, which despite its low weight are extremely rigid and durable.

Ottima aerodinamica

Oval, wide (up to 27.25 mm) cross-section of the VINCI RAPID rim provides excellent aerodynamics and stability of the wheel even during a strong side wind. The rim is in fact free of sharp ‘refractions and reduces the force from which side the wind pushes’ the wheel. This makes it possible to apply higher rims, even in windy conditions. Importantly, by designing the shape of the VINCI RAPID rim we studied the aerodynamics of the complete wheel and tyre of a given width. Thanks to this, the aerodynamics of VINCI RAPID has been adapted to the tyre width and tubular tyres respectively to 21-26mm for VINCI RAPID wheel models with depth of rim of 40mm and 55mm, and 20-25mm for the model with the 88mm rim.

High quality CN Mac Aero Extra 424 aerodynamic spokes have been used in all wheels to minimize the friction generated by them.

VINCI RAPID is a wheel that can cope perfectly whenever overcoming wind resistance is critical. The wheels are designed for maximum aerodynamics.

Estremamente rigide

Only exceptionally rigid wheels are able to transfer 100% of your power to tyre and provide you with incredible acceleration. Therefore, the stiffness of the whole structure was one of the priorities for the constructors of VINCI RAPID wheels.

Therefore, VINCI RAPID rims were made from the highest grade carbon fiber, carefully arranged in the One Piece Molding process and combined resins of the highest quality. Strengthening the surrounds of nipples to be able to maximize the spoke tension and punching their heads at the hub flanges, handly assembled spokes with attention to accurate, maximum tension of each of them and 14:7 spoke pattern are another solutions that we used to make each turn of the crank even more effective. The technique of punching the heads of the spokes also provides the correct stress distribution in the wheel and the corresponding transfer of power during acceleration and stability of the wheels during hard braking.

If you are looking for wheels that will not waste your energy, VINCI RAPID is the perfect solution. This guarantees excellent acceleration, dynamic exits out of the corners and success at the final meters of each race.

Eccellente trazione e ridotta resistenza al rotolamento

Extended internal rim bead width (25mm for the tubular rims and to 20mm for the clincher 40mm and 55mm rims) means a tubular or tyre is better placed on the rim, being a bit more flattened. In this way it not only improves its traction, but also decreases rolling resistance of the rubber.

The contact of surface with the ground remains the same, but the shape changes – it is wider but shorter. As confirmed by numerous studies, a more round than oblong shape of the tyre footprint generates less rolling resistance than narrow, but long track tyres or tubulars placed on a narrow rim.

VINCI RAPID rims have been optimized for use with tubulars or tyres with a width of 21-26mm for 40mm and 55mm deep rims and 20-25mm for 88mm rim. RAPID 40mm and 55mm rims brake track width (center) is 26,75mm and max rim width is 27,25mm, what makes the VINCI RAPID rims most aerodynamic and moreover provide an extremely low rolling resistance.

VINCI RAPID wheels are avaiable with TLF™ Ceramic Bearings, which save your power during each wheel spin.

Each rubber based on VINCI RAPID wheels automatically gets better. Indeed it gets to the rim, which is designed to squeeze out its maximum.

Peso ridotto

Through a suitable type of carbon fiber, hightest grade TG epoxy resins and proper position of the individual layers of carbon fiber, VINCI RAPID rims is characterized not only by unique stiffness, but also its low weight.

Supplementing the whole ‘set’ with a very lightweight VINCI BF-112R / BF-112F hub and excellent CN Mac Aero Extra 424 spokes makes every climb and acceleration easier with VINCI RAPID wheels.

You will surely appreciate details such as the use of additional carbon fibers only in and around the nipples thereby reducing the weight of the rim of only 3-4 grams, when you’re fighting gravity on the steepest sections of daily training or the most important race of the season.

You will feel the lightness and stiffness of VINCI RAPID wheels in every situation. These wheels not only exceptionally climb up every mountain easily, but also perfectly accelerate due to their low weight.

The VINCI RAPID wheel is the perfect support at every climb. Accelerating with such a light and rigid wheel becomes very easy even when the trail leads uphill.

Resistenza superiore alla media

Strengthening the key elements of the rim, the back ground of the design the ‘double triangle’ or innovative pawls system and advanced quality control systems is all there so that you can enjoy the VINCI RAPID wheels for a really long time.

Using the highest grade TG resins provides resistance to the rim at a high temperature occurring during braking, and prevents micro-deformation even when the temperature exceeds 2400C.

For the rims not to have a weak point which are all kinds of connections at different parts of any design, they are made continuously in one piece using technology known as “one piece molding”.

Hundreds of training sessions and starts, often in terrible conditions is the real test of strength for you and your equipment. VINCI RAPID wheels pass it without a problem.

Wide U-shape rim profile

Aerodynamic wide u-shape carbon rims

The VINCI RAPID rims shape resembles the shape used in the highest series of our wheels. There have been only minor modifications that were necessary to be able to apply a little cheaper production techniques and significantly reduce the price of the VINCI RAPID rim.

Their oval, broad cross-section provides maximum aerodynamic efficiency and stability of the wheel even with a strong side wind. The rim is in fact devoid of sharp ‘bends’ and reduces the force with which side the wind ‘pushes’ the wheel. This makes it possible to apply higher cones, even in windy conditions.

The RAPID VINCI aerodynamic rim has been adapted to tyres and tubulars with a width of 21-26mm respectively for the VINCI RAPID wheel models with the 40mm and 55mm rims depth, and 20-25mm for a 20mm, 24mm and 88mm rims.

The forces that act on the rear wheel drive side are incomparably greater than those found on the other side of the wheel.

Therefore, we decided to increase the number of the spokes on the drive side in the VINCI RAPID 40mm, 55mm and 88mm rim depth wheels and simultaneously reduce the other.

The effects which have thus been achieved are amazing: reduced tension of the spokes, increased lateral stiffness of the wheel, reduced vibration and improved power transfer and the transfer of torque.

The wheels not only get better speed but also provide better and stable handling.

Wide rim bead

road wheels rims wide bead

RAPID VINCI rims are designed to perfectly cooperate with the tyres or tubular tyres of 21-26mm width (for models with 40mm and 55mm rim depth) and 20-25mm (for models with 20mm, 24mm and 88mm cone). For this purpose the inner diameter of the rims was increased.

By appropriate adjustment, the tubular tyre or tyre are better placed on the rim, which results not only in improved traction, but also the reduction of the rolling resistance. The contact surface with the ground remains the same, but the shape changes and is wider but shorter. As confirmed by numerous studies, more round than oblong shape of the tyre footprint generates less rolling resistance than a narrow, but long track tyres or tubular placed on a narrow rim.

CN-spoke Mac Aero Extra 424 spokes

cn-spoke mac aero 424

Mac Aero Extra 424 spokes from CN Spoke combine the 3 most important tyre-road features: aerodynamic cross-section, low weight and high rigidity.

The excellent properties of those spokes made from the highest quality steel with 2.0-0.9×2.2-2.0 aerodynamic cross-section have long been appreciated not only by professionals but also by demanding amateurs.

Advanced quality control system

To make sure that the VINCI wheels not only meet safety requirements, but also additional, above-average quality standards, we have subjected them to advanced control tests.

We use standards in line with SGS, CEN and EN 14781 in the production of our wheels.

We have used aluminum CN spoke nipples in the production of VINCI RAPID. The nipples are made of aluminum are up to 3 times lighter than brass, and the low weight of rotating components is particularly important when accelerating.

Double Triangle design
