FL86

Winning triathlons and time trials are not easy. Our Fast and Light 86 wheels are here to try and make it just a little bit easier on you though. You’ll still have to ride the Race of Truth at your pace, but our 86mm deep wheels will help you to slice through the air. You might even think you’ve installed a motor to your bike the first time you head out riding on them.
Our Fast and Light 86 wheel rims, like the rest of our Fast and Light range, is constructed from Toray T700 carbon fiber. Toray T700 is a great material for building bike wheels using. It is an easy cloth to layup in a manner that allows us to factor in strength, stiffness, and low weight.
To make sure you don’t get beset with issues on race day, we have designed the rim shape to allow you to go tubeless. If your self-supported you’ll find running tubeless will mean that you should not have issues with punctures on race day. We’ve also designed the rim to be a blunt aero shape, as we have found that to be the best shape for guiding air around your wheels and causing less of it to break up.
To add to the reliability, we have fitted sealed bearing Novatec FS522SB/AS511SB hubs to the wheels. We wanted hubs that were affordable and reliable enough to keep you on the road. Otherwise, you’ll never have a shot at victory.
Helping to add to the wind-cheating properties of our wheel we have fitted aero Sapim CX-Ray spokes. These spokes are super-lightweight but are also strong and stiff; that is why they are the choice of many professional wheelbuilders.
Features
Wide Rim Tech
25mm rim wide creates a better, more stable support, while the shape of the tire and rim together creates regular, stable air flow, in short, more aerodynamics, less attrition. provides an ideal basis for 25/28mm tires, the sizes currently popular.
2-Way Clincher Tubeless. Tubes or No-Tubes
Use either traditional tires with tubes, or tubeless tires without tubes. Tubeless tires can provide lower rolling resistance and better protection from punctures.
High Quality Straight Pull Hub
Novatec straight pull hub with 4 pawls and high quality Japanese sealed EZO bearings, it can use 3-5 years under normal usage. Thousands of riders all over the world on these hubs and they are great performers and super durable.
Sapim CX-RAY As light as a titanium spoke
The CX-Ray still receives the best results in fatigue testing of any spoke. The CX-Ray aero spoke combines excellent aerodynamics with low weight and great strength. Not only are they more aerodynamic, they also make wheels lighter and stronger. Its unique strength and flexibility make the CX-Ray suitable for most bicycle disciplines. CX-Ray spokes are used by top bike racers and triathletes around the world.
