Artech 6

クリア

Developed for Aerodynamics and Lightweight

With a rim profile of 65 mm and a set weight of only 1244 grams, the Artech 6 combines best in class aerodynamics at a weight level you normally only see for shallow climbing wheels. Artech 6 makes it possible to ride a climbing stage at the Tour de France on an aero wheelset without a weight penalty.

Besides best in class aerodynamics and an extreme low weight, the Artech 6 provides high lateral stiffness and doesn’t compromise in durability. The 23 mm internal width hooked tire bed, is aerodynamically optimized for 28mm clincher- and tubeless tires, for a perfect balance between rolling resistance and comfort.

Exceptional engineering
by creative minds

We think differently, more creative and from new perspectives. We pioneer new technologies and bring a new way of thinking into the cycling industry.

The Artech breaks industry norms with unparalleled performance to offer the best wheelsets on the market, anytime.

Algorithm Enhanced Aerodynamics

The shape of our rims is defined by our Algorithm Enhanced Aerodynamics (AEA) technology. This algorithm optimizes the most aerodynamic rim-profile guaranteeing optimal aerodynamic performance.

Surface Structure Aerodynamics

The Aeroscales generate velocity streaks travelling at different speed over our rim surface. This has a stabilizing effect on the airflow and reduces drag.

Lightweight design

With our Local Reinforcement carbon technology, we’ve increased the number of carbon layers around the spoke holes on the inside of the rim. This way we significantly reduce weight while preserving strength and stiffness.

Perfect tire-fit

The unique geometry of our Scope Tubeless System ensures easy mounting, direct inflation, long-lasting pressure and compatibility with all clincher and tubeless tires.

Lightweight 3D printed

The lightweight bone like hub structure design is a result of topology optimization. Using Scalmalloy material in combination with the latest 3D-printing technology we’ve been able to manufacture this unique, lightweight and strong hub design.

Lightweight and durable

The Diamond Ratchet SL system is made from titanium and finished with a diamond like carbon coating. This results in direct engagement, improved durability, and a significant reduction in weight.

Ultra-light and Aerodynamic

The lightweight Carbonlite Aerospokes provide high lateral stiffness resulting in increased efficiency when accelerating and climbing. The optimized aerodynamic shape of the spoke reduces aerodynamic drag.
