CADEX Max GXR WheelSystem: The Ultimate Monoblock Carbon Gravel Wheels

The all-new CADEX Max GXR WheelSystem carbon gravel wheels are engineered without compromise for high-speed gravel racing, where aerodynamic efficiency, lateral stiffness, and rough-terrain control make the winning difference. Combining a deep 50 mm aerodynamic rim profile with CADEX Super Aero carbon spokes and a seamless monoblock hub design (Max Hub & Spoke Technology), this wheelset slices through headwinds and maximizes watt transfer under load. At a featherweight 1,280 grams per pair (1,320 g with tubeless rim tape and valves installed), the CADEX Max GXR gravel wheelset sets a new benchmark in stiffness-to-weight performance for fast, technical courses.

25 mm Hookless Internal Width, 5 mm Wide Guard Sidewalls & DBL Lacing

Every structural element of the CADEX Max GXR is built to withstand brutal off-road impacts without sacrificing climbing responsiveness:

• 25 mm Internal Width & Wide Guard Protection (5 mm): The 25 mm internal rim width (35 mm external) is optimized for high-volume gravel tires from 700x40c to 700x57c (and 29" XC MTB tires from 29x1.50" to 2.25") run at lower pressures, increasing the contact patch for superior traction and vibration damping. The continuous-fiber Hookless construction features reinforced 5 mm Wide Guard sidewalls that defend against harsh rock strikes and pinch flats, eliminating the need for heavy foam tire inserts.
  
  
• Integrated Max Monoblock System with Adjustable Titanium Nipples: The aero hub, flanges, and Super Aero carbon spokes are bonded into a single monolithic structure that eliminates lateral flex. Unlike traditional one-piece wheels, the hidden integrated titanium nipples feature an independent internal tensioning system, allowing precise wheel truing and spoke tension adjustments.
  
  
• Dynamic Balanced Lacing (DBL) & In-Mold Carbon Graphics: A wider spoke bracing angle balances spoke tension under dynamic pedaling loads rather than static tension, while In-Mold carbon logos are cured directly into the rim surface—adding zero weight and never peeling against mud or pressure washing.

CADEX R3-C60 60-Tooth (6°) Aero Hub & Ceramic Bearings

At the rear, the precision-machined CADEX R3-C60 aero hub houses a 60-tooth Ratchet Driver paired with a Ratchet Wave Spring, delivering instantaneous 6° engagement for explosive accelerations out of corners. Ultra-smooth CADEX ceramic bearings minimize friction, rolling 1.5 times smoother than standard steel bearings.
