1. Hed Stinger Disc Wheel - Tubular One Color,
Campagnolo
Fast. Faster. Fastest. We sell several brands of disc wheels and everyone has their
claim. We'll go so far as to tell you that the HED Stinger Disc Wheel is among the
fastest of the fastest discs available today. It's faster than its brother, the HED Jet
Disc by nine seconds in a 40k time trial. The Stinger is faster than the Jet for two
reasons. One is that the toroidal bulge is longer. The second is that the sides of the
disc where the disc meet the tire are taller. Both these features help smooth out the
air flow over the tire and wheel. The result is something stunning. The Stinger disc
has -90g of drag when the yaw angle is 14-degrees. Negative 90g. At 14-degrees of
yaw, a conventional spoked wheel has almost 220g of drag (a 310g shift in
aerodynamic drag) and even the HED Jet Disc has 30g. Compared to a conventional
spoked wheel, the Stinger saves you 28 watts. As with the Jet, the Stinger is built via
a hybrid construction. The wheel begins with a 24-spoke HED Sonic hub, 24
14-gauge spokes, and a carbon-fiber 24-spoke C2 tubular rim. Once the wheel is
built, two carbon fiber lenticular panels are fitted over the spoked structure. The
toroidal bulges in the rim section flare out to 26mm at their widest. Once the
construction is completed, you have one fast wheel that is not only extremely durable
but very stiff in the lateral plane. This lateral stiffness should add to drivetrain
efficiency, propelling you forward with very little energy loss. As with all HED's C2's,
this carbon-fiber rim is 23mm wide. C2 stands for the two C's that the rim is designed
to minimize, Cda, or aerodynamic resistance, and Crr, or rolling resistance. The width
is designed to maximize the efficiency of air passing over the tire and rim by
smoothing out the air flow as well as maximize the efficiency of tires by providing
better support and a better-shaped contact patch for the tire.
