"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: ""When I swapped to the Alpinist CLX III, the difference was immediate. The weight savings and stiff build gave me that extra kick on steep climbs, and the DT 180 hubs roll smoother than anything else I’ve ridden. If you want pure climbing speed without compromise, this is the set.""We reach for the Roval Alpinist CLX III when every gram matters and the summit is calling. Engineered with Roval’s lightest construction to date, this wheelset sheds 134 grams over its predecessor, giving us the extra push to dance up legendary climbs and keep momentum high when the gradient turns unforgiving. Roval pairs ultra-strong Aero Composite spokes with DT Swiss 180 EXP hubs to deliver reliable stiffness and razor-sharp handling, all while weighing in at just 1,131 grams. The 33mm carbon rims balance aerodynamics with nimble climbing performance, and tubeless-ready construction keeps rolling resistance low. Whether chasing polka dot dreams or seeking personal bests, these wheels are built to elevate every ascent."
