New Miche Graff Aero 4 wheels for gravel: developed only to go fast

The gravel competition is gaining more and more weight in the ranges of bicycle and component manufacturers. Something that the Italians from Miche are not unaware of, who took advantage of the Unbound Gravel competition to present their new Graff Aero 4 wheels that they have developed hand in hand with one of the references in the discipline, such as the Dutch cyclist Ivar Slik.

Performance, reliability, and the best aerodynamics, qualities of the new Miche wheels for competitive gravel

We have told you before that the Unbound Gravel is to this discipline what the Tour de France is to road cycling, also for the brands, which choose the town of Emporia as the stage to present their new products and put them to the test in the most famous gravel competition in the world.

Precisely, the Unbound Gravel was the chosen event for the debut of the new Miche Graff Aero 4 wheels used by the Wilier cyclist, Ivar Slik. Wheels built around UD carbon rims with a 48 mm profile and 27 mm internal width to better accommodate the use of increasingly wider tires, in fact, they are designed to be used with a range of tires between 35 and 60 mm.

Furthermore, the width of the rim allows for the reliable use of hookless rims that allow for shaving off some good grams on the scale while making the rim more robust.

In the center, we find CX-Graff hubs, also developed by Miche, which mount top-quality bearings to achieve the smoothest possible rotation. Hub and rim are joined together by 24 conical spokes.

The result is wheels that leave the scale at 1,525 g, prioritizing both aerodynamics and reliability in the toughest gravel races on the world calendar.
