products – Carbon TdF58 – Clincher
The TdF58 Clincher is built upon the technology of the TT58, combining the lowest spoke counts and deep section rims but with the added convenience of clincher compatibility and an alloy brake track. Designed for aerodynamic and stiffness, the TdF58 clincher is the pinnacle of "do everything" wheels - great for road races, triathlons and time trials. With its stouter configuration, the TdF58 clincher is also a good choice for rougher roads or heavier riders that still want the aero benefits of deep carbon rims. Whether it's a time trial or a road race, the TdF58 clincher still has pop left for the finishing sprint so all of your power goes straight into relentless forward motion.

Rims: Designed and reinforced for the low spoke count (12H Front, 12H Rear) and high spoke tensions, the 58mm deep carbon is co-molded with an alloy rim cap for clincher compatibility and alloy brake tracks. These features add another level of convenience and toughness from predictable braking performance and quick tire changes to added impact resistance. This proprietary carbon fiber rim offers superior lateral and torsional stiffness for all the power you can put into it. The 58mm deep profile combined with a narrow spoke bed significantly decreases wind drag while also minimizing rim weight.


Hubs: The TdF58 clincher rims are laced to the TdF4.4 proprietary hub, designed and manufactured in the USA. The front hub has a unique 85mm wide flange placement which increases the lateral wheel stiffness by nearly 20%. The rear hub features our Patented Differential Flange Diameter, which doubles the number of pulling spokes and creates a more durable wheel. Both hubs are fully CNC machined and feature oversized axles, increasing the wheel durability and stiffness without increasing the wheel weight.


Freehubs: CNC machined Titanium freehub body has 3 independently sprung steel pawls for a bomb-proof torque transfer system. This system is strong, simple and dependable.


Spoke & Nipple: The TdF58 clincher wheel set features paired, 14 gauge custom bladed spokes with internal alloy nipples with nylon inserts to create a quicker accelerating, faster climbing wheel with superior, long-term durability. Self-locking thread technology ensures wheels stay true longer. Our Patented, Jacketed Nipple Design™ reduces spoke bending loads and wind drag, increasing spoke life and contributing to a more durable, stiff and aerodynamic wheel system.


Extras: Rolf Prima TdF58 clincher wheel systems include custom reinforced rim tape and Titanium quick release skewers.
