The SLR 0 50 sets a new benchmark as the top lightweight aero wheel in the Giant lineup. A wind-tunnel proven 50mm hookless aero rim with optimized high-tensile carbon layup creates an ideal balance of stiffness and low weight. Dynamic Balanced Lacing maximizes power transfer. And a 40-tooth low-friction hub delivers fast, reliable engagement under load. It all adds up to real gains in speed, efficiency and control.

CLASS-LEADING AERODYNAMICS & SUPPORT

A wind-tunnel-tested 50mm hookless aero rim profile delivers exceptional aerodynamic efficiency, while aero carbon spokes increase watt savings and improve stability in variable conditions. A reinforced 3.8mm rim bead integrates more cleanly with the tire sidewall for better airflow and greater support when cornering at speed.

LIGHTWEIGHT EFFICIENCY & INSTANT POWER TRANSFER

Aero carbon spokes and Dynamic Balanced Lacing increase torsional rigidity for immediate power transfer. An optimized high-tensile carbon layup helps reduce weight by 90g compared to the SLR 1 50, resulting in 20% greater transmission-to-weight. And a a 40-tooth low-friction ratchet hub delivers faster engagement, reduced bearing load, and smoother, more efficient acceleration.

TOTAL CONTROL & RACE-READY CONFIDENCE

A durable hookless rim structure allows a wider inner profile without added weight, improving stability and impact resistance. The 22.4mm inner width shapes higher-volume tires into a broader contact patch for better traction, comfort, and compliance.

Dynamic Balanced Lacing

Since its introduction in 2015, Dynamic Balanced Lacing (DBL) has been the cornerstone of Giant WheelSystems. DBL ensures that spokes are set for optimal tension when under dynamic load, resulting in enhanced durability and pedaling efficiency. The enlarged DBL hub flange also increases the spoke bracing angles, which boosts overall torsional/transmission and lateral stiffness for better power transfer and more stable sprinting.

Hookless Rim Design

Ve srovnání s klasickými ráfky, jejichž patky mají zahnuté okraje neboli „háčky“, hookless neboli bezháčkový design ráfků zvyšuje celkovou životnost ráfku, nabízí větší vnitřní šířku bez navýšení hmotnosti a také pomáhá vytvořit kulatější tvar pneumatiky poskytující vynikající přilnavost a ovladatelnost a přidanou podporu bočnice v zatáčkách. Díky absenci „háčku“, který by jinak „tlačil“ patku pneumatiky dovnitř, nabízí hookless ráfek plynulejší proudění vzduchu mezi pneumatikou a bočnicí ráfku, což má za následek menší odpor a lepší aerodynamický výkon ve srovnání se standardními ráfky.
