Ready For The Alps

Even if I am not, the bike is. This is what I will be tackling the Marmotte with. A few upgrades. A great set of Wheels from Williams Racing, 22mm carbon clinchers coming in at a fighting weight of 1200g. Dressed in Hutchinson Tubless tires gives them a very light tubular like feel. Some new TRP brakes and Rotor compact rings. If this all doesn’t help nothing will.

  1. Very nice. Haven’t come across those wheels before. Sounds like a good time.

  2. I’ve got a pair of 22mm Williams Carbon clinchers as well – they are fantastic. And then, when they only cost $999US, unbelievable!

  4. I didnt think Williams made tubeless rims. What tubeless conversion kit are you using?
