ELITEWHEELS Drive G50 CS carbon gravel wheelset
The Drive G50 CS is engineered for competitive gravel racing: the 50 mm rim profile maintains speed over fast-rolling sections, 3.3 mm carbon spokes increase power transfer without the weight penalty of steel, and the 60T titanium freehub body withstands sharp pace changes on punchy, rugged terrain. UCI-certified and extensively tested on our titanium gravel bikes, they install in minutes and are easily serviced with the 4 included spare spokes. The Drive G50 CS wheelset delivers the ride characteristics of wheels twice the price, without compromise. Key Features 1,380 g per pair: On long or steep climbs, rotating mass is significantly reduced—every acceleration requires fewer watts, making speed easier to sustain. 6° Engagement: When the gradient kicks up or you launch an attack, the 60T titanium ratchet engages on the first pedal stroke, eliminating dead spots in power delivery. 30 mm Internal Width: Accommodates 700x40c to 60C tires at low pressures to track the terrain closely. The wheel stays planted in off-camber turns, tracking smoothly over exposed roots without deflection. UCI Approved: Passed 20+ rigorous laboratory procedures and vertical impact tests to handle aggressive, rough gravel terrain without compromising structural integrity. Compatibility The Drive G50 CS fits disc-brake gravel and all-road bikes: 12x100 mm front axle, 12x142 mm rear axle, Center Lock disc mounting. Compatible with 700x40-60C tires, run tubeless or with inner tubes (hooked rim design: no hookless pressure restrictions). Three freehub bodies available: Shimano HG, SRAM XDR, and Shimano MSR (Micro Spline) for modern 1x12 gravel groupsets such as Shimano RX820.
