Altamont Lite Alloy Disc Front Wheel

Altamont – the wheelset known to ride everywhere through everything!

Bombproof aerodynamic alloy wheel. Snappy and responsive, perfect for fast rides on the road, gravel, and cyclocross. With the wide 20mm internal width, the Altamont is perfectly suited to road rides with 25mm+ tires and even gravel rides with up to 40mm tires. A unique tubeless locking bead shelf helps prevent burping at even the lowest tire pressures, yet can withstand the high pressures of road tires.

Welded and ground seams provides exceptional braking performance. Extra deep anodization hardens and strengthens the rim. The result is a wheelset perfect for training, racing or general performance riding.

Use this on your road, cyclocross, or gravel bike as a great upgrade to the stock wheelset (you know, that heavy, clunky, sluggish wheel) that came on your nice bike. With the super quick 5 degree engagement of the Quest hubs, you’ll feel the wheels responding as soon as you stomp on the pedals.

Being a little more budget friendly than carbon, getting a great upgrade doesn’t have to be something you sell a kidney to achieve!

Aero Pillar Wing 20 spokes compliment the ride as a wheelset that is aero, yet forgiving when riding on choppy chip seal or gravel roads.

You have a nice disc brake bike, but you just can’t get that excited about the wheels on them. “If I had some better shoes, I’d go dancing all the time.”

Transform your ride with a better handling, lighter, more aero option that has no hesitation when it’s time to jump on the pedals. Keep your speed going on those hard efforts with a proper 30mm aero profile.

Multiple spoke counts ensure no matter your riding style or weight, there’s a wheel to suit your needs.

Altamont Lite - Shave Weight, Not Strength!

The biggest question we get, "What is the difference between the Altamont and the Altamont Lite?".

With the Altamont, the focus was on a semi-aero alloy rim shape. A rim that keeps you rolling on the flatter to rolling terrain. Well, for a lot of us, weight savings is more important that a bit of aero gain. The Altamont Lite excels here, taking a 5mm shallower rim (25mm deep versus 30mm). We were able to make a wheelset with the same strength, same durability, same spoke count options, and shave 90 grams of rotating weight over the deeper Altamont version

Welded and ground seams provides exceptional braking performance. Extra deep anodization hardens and strengthens the rim. The result is a wheelset perfect for training, hilly terrain, or gravel and CX riding.

Use the Altamont Lite for rides where the speeds are not as high and weight savings becomes more important that every gram of aero drag. This means your hilly rides, cyclocross events, gravel rides. . . or just lighten up your bike in general. 

Being an alloy wheelset, this is priced much more budget friendly than a comparable carbon set, so this can make a great upgrade to an stock wheelset that you just can't get very excited about.

You want to ride in hilly terrain or go out for some great gravel rides. Use as a tubeless ready cyclocross wheelset with a rim bed designed to lock in tubeless tires at lower pressures. 

If you have a nice newer disc brake bike, yet it feels sluggish and boring whenever you hop on, this set is just the energization you need!
