Cycleops Powertap New Wheelsets for 2013

Powertap has some new wheels for 2013.  The focus is on the high end, which gives the racer more options for recording power while in competition.

SES 6.7 G3 Carbon Wheelset – $3,499.99, tubular (1420g)/clincher (1660g)

It’s a 60mm front and 70mm rear.  Pretty similar setup to what you’ve seen in the past from Powertap…Aerolite Spokes, G3 hub, Enve rim.

SES 3.4 G3 Carbon Wheelset – $3,499.99, tubular (1355g)/clincher (1520g)

30mm front and 40mm rear, it’s a wheelset that would be more appropriate for a road racer.  Both the 6.7 and 3.4 have a 26mm front width and 24mm rear width.  Interesting…… lots of testing saying that the 24mm rim depth is ideal for rolling resistance.

46mm G3 Carbon Wheelset – $2,499.99, clincher only (1590g)

This is perhaps my favorite Powertap addition for 2013.  It’s a Reynolds carbon rim and it uses DT Swiss Champion Spokes.  Still light and durable but the price point changes to a bit more reasonable.

It’s worth noting that for 2013 there will be no Powertap Pro Hub.  Therefore, the low end model is the G3.  The hub only is $1299.99 and the rear wheel is $1,399.99.
