Extensive testing and development have resulted in a wheelset that is even more efficient than its predecessor, the Wake 6560 Strada.\u003c\/p\u003e \n \n\u003cp\u003eMore impressively, the new Wake 6560 Evolution has been the largest step change in performance from one version to the next, amongst all iterations of the Wake series.\u003c\/p\u003e \n \n\u003ch2\u003eDesign Innovations\u003c\/h2\u003e \n \n\u003cp\u003eInstantly recognizable compared to previous versions, the shape of the Wake 6560 has substantially changed. Our new Evolution profile matches alternating deep and shallow rim sections with alternating spoke sides. Mechanically, this allows the steeper, high tension spokes (drive side rear spokes and disc side front spokes) to connect to a deeper rim section, thereby flattening those spoke angles. The change in bracing angle helps balance spoke tensions, creating a stiffer, more uniform wheel.\u003c\/p\u003e \n \n\u003cp\u003eThis patented technology, Radially Staggered Lacing, is exclusive to Princeton CarbonWorks road wheels.\u003c\/p\u003e \n \n\u003ch2\u003eAdvanced Features and Improvements\u003c\/h2\u003e \n \n\u003cp\u003eWake 6560 Evolution is also incrementally wider and lighter than its predecessor. The increased width (21mm internal, 28.2mm max external) is optimized for the 25mm tires on which professional cyclists currently race.\u003c\/p\u003e \n \n\u003cp\u003eThe result is a wheel with even better aerodynamic efficiency at all yaw angles and better composure in tricky crosswinds.\u003c\/p\u003e \n \n\u003cp\u003eRim weight has been reduced by 10g per rim, helped by the overall shorter cord length of the inner edge.\u003c\/p\u003e \n \n\u003ch2\u003eContinuing the Legacy of Rim Brake and Hooks\u003c\/h2\u003e \n \n\u003cp\u003eThe rim brake and hooks live on. Rim brake rims will always be available and Wake 6560 Evolution will continue to have a hooked, hole-less, tubeless ready tire bed, which can accommodate clincher\/tubed tires or tubeless tires with no tape needed and no tire pressure restrictions.\u003c\/p\u003e \n \n\u003ch2\u003eAddressing the Competition\u003c\/h2\u003e \n \n\u003cp\u003eCompeting hookless rims, while less expensive to manufacture and lighter weight, have proven problematic and potentially dangerous, especially in relation to tire choices and tire pressure limits. Princeton CarbonWorks still firmly believes in a hooked rim providing the safest and fastest solution for road riding and racing.\u003c\/p\u003e \n \n\u003ch2\u003eWheelset Weight Based on Hub Choice\u003c\/h2\u003e \n \n\u003cp\u003eWhite Industries CLD\u003c\/p\u003e \n \n\u003cp\u003e1570 g\u003c\/p\u003e \n \n\u003cp\u003eWhite Industries T11 (Rim brake)\u003c\/p\u003e \n \n\u003cp\u003e1515 g\u003c\/p\u003e \n \n\u003cp\u003eDT Swiss 240 EXP\u003c\/p\u003e \n \n\u003cp\u003e1460 g\u003c\/p\u003e \n \n\u003cp\u003eTactic TR02\u003c\/p\u003e \n \n\u003cp\u003e1465 g\u003c\/p\u003e \n \n\u003cp\u003eChris King R45D Ceramic\u003c\/p\u003e \n \n\u003cp\u003e1550 g\u003c\/p\u003e \n \n\u003cp\u003eDT Swiss 180 EXP\u003c\/p\u003e \n \n\u003cp\u003e1435 g\u003c\/p\u003e \n \n\u003cp\u003eTactic TR01\u003c\/p\u003e \n \n\u003cp\u003e1365 g\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Princeton","offers":[{"title":"Matte Black \/ DT 240","offer_id":44160889290794,"sku":"8.40397E+11","price":6300.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Matte Black \/ Tactic TR02 Shimano","offer_id":44160889323562,"sku":"976936","price":9999.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/cyclesy.cc\/products\/princeton-carbonworks-wake-6560-evolution-wheelset","provider":"Cyclesy","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
