Kinetic-One K1-40ST (SUPERTOUGH) CARBON ‘GRAVEL Disc Brake Wheelset.
SCROLL ACROSS TO SEE OUR STUNNING NEW DECAL OPTIONS
INTENDED USE: Our latest handbuilt-to-order, 700c disc brake CROSS/GRAVEL/TARMAC multi-functional “All Road” wheelset. Balancing superb strength with superlative aerodynamics.
Our new wider rim profile (23.5mm internal / 31mm external) takes clincher and tubeless tyres from 28mm right through to 60mm. Maximising speed, comfort, grip and handling. This might just be the way forward!!
Light and tough enough for the hilliest and roughest of Sportives, Cyclocross courses and gravel tracks. And fast-accelerating enough for racing, and aero enough to ensure that you gain every possible watt of drag reduction.
Our ultra-modern, full U-Shaped 40mm deep, matte black rims (with or without a choice of 28 decal colours!) are laced to a choice of superb sealed bearing hubs with high-end PSR Aero spokes for max strength/speed.
Our standard SUPERAEROLIGHT build feature excellent BITEX hubs - offering class leading performance at incredibly competitive prices. These are also extremely robust with exceptional bearings. We pair these with Pillars excellent PSR AERO spokes.
Or upgrade to the SUPERAEROLIGHT++ build with Bitex SL hubs and the worlds best spokes.. the Sapim cxray.
This wheelset will enable you to ride fast, for many years, over varying terrain. Its all about the combination of aerodynamic profile, superbly light / strong components coupled with the quality and robustness of build that only handbuilt wheels can offer.
Your wheels will be hand built to order in the UK. (current build times are 14-21 days).
It's an incredibly fast-moving time for road disc systems at the moment with lots of competing standards for Axle types and frame fitting methods and for rotor fastening.
Handbuilt to order and available for the whole wide range of modern axle and rotor fitment systems. Whatever your frame needs we can configure these wheels to your bike. And even if you change your bike - the hubs are all simply convertible to all the other axles standards! We think that's massively important as it future-proofs your wheels! (no one wants to be left with the betamax of hub types and obsolete wheels!)
Technical details below.
Or just drop us a line If you don't know what system your bike has (you won't be alone - many people very understandably don't know, they just want to ride their bike after all!)
You can run these as conventional clincher wheels or you can set them up as Tubeless. Tubeless wheels can be run at lower pressure than clinchers and this helps provide a more comfortable ride and it also eliminates the possibility of pinch flat punctures (caused from hitting potholes etc.)
We recommend Schwalbe Tubeless tyres. But even if you're unsure about whether to go tubeless just yet - worry not - you can run these wheels with inner tubes and clincher tyres in the traditional way!

Reviews
Very nice wheels look great and strong can’t go wrong with buying a set of these I’m even thinking of getting another set for my other bike.
It hardly ever happens that an Amazing product comes with Amazing service by genuinely decent people. This isn’t just a product review as that would give enough credit to the service that you get. The product is fantastic, I’m a heavy rider and went through 2 standard sets of wheels in my first year of cycling. I stumbled across kinetic one and was contacted by the genius behind the product Andy. He took my concerns and built me a set of wheels to a spec that are just about bomb proof. When looking at prices it’s easy to think that’s too good to be true but stop there! I opened the box and they looked WOW, I fitted them to the bike and the bike looked extra WOW, I rode them the first time and they rolled so smooth with a fantastic free hub sound. They have put up with a 125kg rider who quite often rides with a sadistic friend who rides virtually anywhere. Now onto the service. Andy took my concerns with other wheels, details of my size and riding style and made the recommendation. I placed the order and was given an estimated delivery time. Did they arrive on time? No they were 5 days early which made it all even better, I had them on the bike then straight on the road. Andy also offers servicing for wheels he has built which is very open in what’s offered at a decent price. Finally I have a set of wheels I wanted to store from another bike and Andy kindly supplied for a reasonable fee solid packing boxes to keep the wheels safe. I can not recommend Andy and his team high enough they do business and in a nice and genuine but professional way possible. Thanks very much for everything
Hey Andy, just back from the trip and the 40 toughs withstood the Paris - Roubaix and Flanders cobbles amazingly. Happy if you want to use these words for your website! Regards Geoff Shaw (Staines Surrey)
