Roval Alpinist CL II Rear Wheel

Elevate your ride with the Roval Alpinist CLX II 700c Carbon Wheels.

It takes more than a lightweight rim to deliver the incredible reactivity and handling of the tubeless Alpinist CLX II. Roval designed the wheelset as a system with our engineers controlling and testing every part of that system – hubs, rims, spokes, lacing – and developing it hand in hand with Specialized Tubeless tyres. The result is a 1250-gram tubeless wheelset with an otherworldly ride quality designed for real-world road pressures.

Low Mass, Massive Durability

The Alpinist CLX II rim is a work of art. It features the most precise carbon layup Roval has ever created, the result of over 50 different iterations, hundreds of impact tests, and countless hours on the road. They react to even the slightest increase in power with immediate acceleration and carve the purest of lines in the corners, yet they can also handle almost double the impact standards of every certifying body. This is instant acceleration and supreme durability, two years in the making.

Like the Rapide, the Alpinist is now tubeless compatible with a hooked rim to take advantage of all a tubeless tire brings to the ride. They’ve also shifted the rim’s outer diameter dimensions to create an extra 1.4mm of bead slack in your tire. This delivers a much better install and roadside repair experience.

Lighter, Stronger, Faster

The all-new LightAF hubs are the spinning heart of the Alpinist CXL II. Roval carved 50 grams out of the previous Alpinist CLX hub with new low-profile hub bodies and machined rotor mounts. Inside, DT Swiss EXP internals and SINC ceramic bearings deliver silky-smooth efficiency and outstanding durability.
