Terra Aero CL Carbon Wheelset

RovalTerra Aero CL Carbon Gravel Wheelset

The Roval Terra Aero CL gravel wheelset brings the high-velocity Chopped Aero Speed design of the flagship CLX model to a package optimized for the everyday gravel racer. These wheels are engineered to deliver the aerodynamic performance required for modern off-road competition, featuring a staggered rim profile with a 50mm front and 45mm rear depth. This specific configuration provides the perfect balance of wind-slicing speed and stable handling in crosswinds. By bridging the gap between professional-grade aerodynamics and daily durability, this wheelset allows riders to maintain higher speeds over rough terrain without sacrificing structural confidence.

Advanced Flat Protection and Aero Geometry

A standout feature of the Terra Aero CL is the substantial 5.38mm bead hook width, which incorporates specialized FlatStop technology. This design is specifically engineered to shield against pinch flats, allowing racers to stay focused on the course rather than equipment failures. The 38.5mm external width creates a seamless, aerodynamic transition when paired with wide gravel tyres, such as the recommended 45mm Tracer TLR. This wide-rim architecture not only improves airflow but also provides a more stable foundation for the tyre, resulting in predictable cornering and increased traction on loose surfaces.

Reliability and Race-Ready Performance

At the core of the wheelset are the reliable DT Swiss 350 hubs, featuring a 36T star ratchet system for rapid and dependable engagement. This ensures that every pedal stroke translates into immediate forward momentum, a critical factor during steep climbs or competitive sprints. Weighing 1,608g with tape and valves, the Terra Aero CL offers a robust build that can withstand the rigours of gravel racing while maintaining a lively feel. Whether tackling a premier long-distance event or a fast-paced local ride, this wheelset provides the cutting-edge aero advantages and mechanical reliability needed to deliver a best-ever performance on any terrain.
