WorldTour Wheelset Brand Product Catalog & Spoke Data Manual (2020-2026)

Compiled on: 2026-07-15
Basis: Public data from brand official websites, professional cycling media reviews, and manufacturer technical manuals
Note: Spoke lengths are reference values; some years and specifications in the tables are estimates — always refer to the latest official brand data.

PBO spoke replacement note: The "PBO order length" column lists the recommended order lengths for Terragor PBO braided spokes and applies only to steel-spoke wheelsets. Basis for the calculation: PBO length ≈ original spoke length − 2 mm (the PBO fiber braid undergoes an initial tensioning phase, so its nominal length is 2 mm shorter than the steel spoke to compensate for this effect). Thread spec M2.3×0.45; before ordering, we recommend double-checking with a spoke-length calculator.

Carbon-spoke wheelset note: Certain brands/models — CADEX (entire range), the Roval CLX II series, Vision Metron SL Disc, Mavic Cosmic/Ksyrium Pro Carbon — use carbon spokes whose interface design differs from that of conventional steel spokes; whether PBO spokes can replace them must be verified case by case. These brands have been grouped into the "Pending Support" section at the end of this document.

Spoke length note: The "F / R-DS / R-NDS" columns correspond to generic configurations for non-disc or disc hubs (F = front, R-DS = rear drive side, R-NDS = rear non-drive side); disc models may deviate by 1–3 mm because of different hub flanges. Actual lengths depend on the specific hub model, flange dimensions, and lacing pattern (number of crossings). A "—" entry means the data is highly hub-dependent and must be measured on the actual wheelset configuration or looked up in the brand's official spec sheet.

1. Zipp (SRAM)

Overview

• Wheelset types: Road, Triathlon, Gravel
• Common spokes: Sapim CX-Ray / CX-Sprint (Sapim is Zipp's OEM supplier; spokes carry the Zipp logo)

• Current lineup: Zipp streamlined its range after 2024; current focus: 303 S, 353 S, 404 Firecrest, 303 XPLR

Year note: Some years in the table are inferred from product-cycle patterns; rely on official brand information. Bold rows are models currently on sale or recently on sale.

3. Roval (Specialized)

Note: The Roval Rapide CLX II and Alpinist CLX II (from 2024) switched to carbon spokes and have been moved to the "Pending Support" section at the end. The models below use steel spokes and can be replaced with PBO spokes.

Overview

• Wheelset types: Road, Gravel
• Common spokes: DT Swiss Aerolite T-head (custom bend exclusive to Roval)
• Hubs: Roval AF / 76/176 / DT Swiss 240/350 custom

Roval's steel-spoke lineup is essentially stable. Whether the CL 50/64 are still in production is uncertain; after 2024 they may have been replaced by the CL II series.

DT Swiss runs the 1100 (high-end) and 1400 (value) tiers side by side; whether the 1100 series is still in production needs further verification.

6. Shimano Dura-Ace / Ultegra

Overview

• Wheelset types: Road
• Spokes: Sapim CX-Ray (custom version with the Shimano logo)
• Hubs: In-house Shimano Dura-Ace / Ultegra hubs

Year note: In 2024 Shimano updated the DA R9200 series naming (dropping C36/C50); new models may arrive after 2025. The R9170/RS171 are 9100-generation products (2017-2020).

7. Vision (FSA)

The Reynolds Aero series actually went into production in 2018. After withdrawing WorldTour sponsorship in 2022, the brand shifted to a direct-to-consumer model.

15. Campagnolo Bora WTO

Overview

• Wheelset types: Road, Triathlon
• Spokes: Campagnolo G3 Aero (made by Sapim as OEM)
• Hubs: In-house Campagnolo Bora hubs
• Current lineup: After 2023 the Bora Ultra WTO became the flagship, the Bora One was discontinued, and internal rim widths across the Bora WTO series were upgraded

In 2023-2024 Campagnolo promoted the Bora Ultra to flagship status; whether the WTO series still offers steel-spoke versions needs verification.

Appendix: Spoke Brand vs. Wheelset Brand Quick Reference

Compiled on: 2026-07-15
Data notes: Spoke-length ranges are estimates based on each brand's mainstream hub configurations (standard hubs such as DT Swiss 240/350, Shimano DA, Roval AF, and Bontrager Aeolus). In an actual wheel build, deviations of ±2-4 mm may occur depending on hub flange dimensions, lacing crossings, and nipple type. For precise calculations, we recommend using the DT Swiss Spoke Calculator or the Sapim Spoke Calc.
Future updates: Brands update their product lines every year; we recommend verifying the latest specs at the start of each season.
