8LIEN L Series Carbon Wheelset
The 8LIEN L Series carbon wheelset combines Toray T1000 rims, aero carbon spokes (1:1), and the in-house R01 36T ratchet hub with S&S ceramic bearings for instant pickup and silky rolling. Pick your depth by terrain: L3 F30/R35 (climber), strong>L4 F40/R45 (mid-depth all-round), or L5 F45/R50 (fast all-round). Coating-free (paintless) rims are hooked & tubeless-ready for easy setup; the L-series is backed by a 3-year warranty (with crash-replacement support). Independent tests have shown the L5 around ~1180 g per set.
