Diadem 50

Rewrite the Rules of Speed. For years, racers have been forced to make a calculated sacrifice on race day. Go lightweight for the climbs, or go deep aero for the flats and crosswinds. We engineered the Red Crown Diadem 50 to eliminate the choice entirely. By pushing the boundaries of custom carbon architecture, we created a wheelset that tips the scales at an astonishing 995 grams, while maintaining a wind-slicing 50mm rim profile and a modern, wide stance. Whether you are hunting a mountain summit or hammering a flat Ironman bike leg, the Diadem 50 delivers unparalleled, category-defying speed. 1. Sub-Kilo Acceleration At just 995g (±15g) for the set, the Diadem 50 moves effortlessly into "super-wheel" territory. By shedding critical rotational mass, it delivers explosive acceleration out of corners and snappy responsiveness the moment the road points upward. Front Wheel: 453g Rear Wheel: 542g 2. Aero-Optimized Stance True aerodynamic performance is about how the wheel interacts with the tire. Featuring an expansive 30mm external width and a 25mm internal width, the Diadem 50 is specifically optimized for modern 30mm–32mm rubber, creating a seamless, low-drag profile that dominates real-world crosswinds. 3. Ultimate Power Transfer Built with custom-made, bladed straight-pull carbon spokes (18 front / 20 rear) laced to a high-engagement, ultra-low friction ratchet-based hub, every watt you produce is instantaneously converted into forward momentum. Equipped with premium ceramic bearings standard.
