Spoke angle has a huge impact on the performance of a wheelset. The shallowest wheel is now shallower than ever (35mm), and the deepest is deeper than ever (68mm) “I wish there was a deeper option.” bemoaned the speed lovers. “I wish there was an even shallower option.” said the climbers. In reviews and comments alike, the same few comments kept coming up. On average we shaved over 50g from each wheelset compared to the wheelset it replaces. It took us countless carbon layup iterations to hit our weight and strength targets but the results were worth it. In a sport where sprints are won or lost by fractions of an inch, every gram, every millimeter, every small detail makes a difference. While most the improvements for Lún HYPER 2023 are incremental, they add up to measurable gains. The rear wheel profile is taller and is optimized for lower yaw angles with an emphasis on trailing edge performance. The front wheel is optimized for its leading-edge performance giving speed and stability in a variety of conditions with a more rounded rim profile. The Front and Rear Aero Profiles are Individually Designed to meet their unique demands. They’re the first wheels to feature our F-RAPID Design. However, The Lun 45 and 67-series wheels put aerodynamic efficiency first. The R33 and D33 wheels are designed for all-out climbing performance. 21mm internal rim width is perfect for either 25mm or 28mm tires but can take tires all the way up to 47mm. The wider 21mm internal width rim gives a better aerodynamic performance with a 25mm wide tire compared to our previous model Lún HYPER due to the better transition from the tire to the rim. However, one thing that was overwhelmingly clear was that you guys wanted a wider internal rim width for riding with wider tires. The optimum rim width for different yaw angles and riding speeds can be debated.

They rose to the challenge and came back with a series of wheels that is on average 15% Stiffer, 6% Lighter and ready to make you faster. That got the engineers scratching their heads. But people also wanted Lighter, Stiffer, and Faster. People wanted a wider rim that was easy enough. Every YouTube review, every forum post, every Instagram hash-tag, every comment… we read them all. You people know bikes, and you know exactly what you want from a wheelset. The feedback from our customers was invaluable. However, in addition to these, we had one ace up our sleeves: You. We knew we had a challenge ahead of us: How do you improve on the greatest? We quadrupled our R&D budget, got some of the greatest minds in the industry and custom-built a plethora of wheel-testing lab equipment. They rode people to personal bests, KOMs, podiums, and state and national championships. 50,000 wheels later and Lún HYPER wheels were being ridden in over 75 countries on six continents. The word spread, so we built more…and more, and more.

It seemed we’d cracked the code on what road cyclists wanted in a wheelset: Fast, light, stiff and a characteristic snappy acceleration like no other wheel out there. In late 2019 Winspace debuted Lún HYPER wheels to great fanfare.
