Archetype

More Info

The perfect all around road rim. At 450 grams, this rim has proven to be light yet not sacrificing strength, stiffness, and stability. The well accepted 23mm wide profile mimics a tubular tire, where the advantage can be felt immediately while taking corners as the tire is no longer shaped like a light bulb, flopping over with high load. The impeccable H Plus Son workmanship and invisible welded rim joint comes standard with each rim. These are an absolute favourite at the store, with at least 4 employees riding Archetype wheelsets.

- Weight: 450 grams
- Material: G609 Alloy
- Height: 25 mm
- Width: 23 mm
- Size: 700c
- Joint: Welded
- Machined Braking Surface

Brand Info

A relative newcomer to manufacturing rims, H+Son have quickly become the gold standard in modern clinchers. H+Son are preferred by road and track cyclists for their low weight, toughness, and breadth of rim depth and design. Using tough G609 alloy, H+Son rims manage to cut down on any extraneous weight, whilst producing really stiff hoops. Their A23 rims have been a revelation to anyone who has ridden who has tried them, using a 23mm wide rim to reduce the 'lightbulb' shape caused by forcing tyres in to normal 19mm wide clinchers, giving much more reliable handling and much faster cornering. Due to these innovations and more, H+Son are quickly becoming world-renowned for their fantastic products.
