INTRODUCING VISION SC 45-60

"TO GIVE EVERY CYCLIST THE PERFECT PRODUCT…"

This has always been our goal, whether working alongside the world's best athletes or in the development of components dedicated to end users. In particular, the SC wheel range represents a fundamental part of the VISION’s offer, providing high-quality carbon products at a highly advantageous and accessible price.
The new SC45 and 60 wheels embody this philosophy, evolving the concepts of previous versions and bringing the latest version of VISION rims, also used in the METRON range, but with more classic and less extreme construction solutions.

TECHNICAL MASTERIPIECE

Carbon rims with a refined aerodynamic profile, available in 45mm or 60mm depths, features a 21mm internal width with hook to achieve maximum efficiency with tubeless tires ranging from 28 to 32mm. 

The 24 aerodynamic spokes with a 2: 1 cross pattern are laced onto direct-pull hubs. The rear freehub features a improved pawl system, updated design without bearing preload adjustment but with press-fit end caps, to improve reliability and more maintenance-friendly. 

Compared to previous versions, the weight has been reduced due to updated carbon construction, reaching 590g/pair for the SC45 and 690g/pair for the SC60.

Our engineers have conducted in-depth tests on the road and in the laboratory to refine the construction of the entire wheel system, which now results in significantly higher stability, performance, and longevity.

Often, this type of wheel is used with little maintenance in mind, which is why we have conducted testing on the performance decay due to over-usage, resulting in improvements to every component part and the coupling between parts. 

For this reason, the new SC wheels are perfect both as training wheels and as a starting point for new riders wanting a significant upgrade to their bike, without having to choose products that are too extreme or expensive.

AN AERO CHOICE

Aerodynamic development of rims has become a fundamental part of road wheel development. The new profiles of 45mm and 60mm depths with a 21mm channel are the result of in-depth wind tunnel tests and CFD analyses aimed at finding the perfect profiles for aerodynamics, resistance to cross winds, and smooth handling. 

The choice between the two models is highly personal and should be made based on the conditions in which one rides: the 60mm profile is highly aerodynamic, perfect for fast and steady riding, where stability is also crucial. A lower height, such as the 45mm, ensures excellent responsiveness, quick accelerations even uphill, but with good aerodynamic performance. 

It is therefore up to each cyclist to choose the best product for their needs.
