Gran Fondo Wheel Sets
Performance and Elite Series Disc Brake Wheel Sets
Uccello’s Gran Fondo rim or disc brake wheelset is an all-around wheelset for a new era of road riding. They are loaded with innovations.
As adept in the mountains as on rolling hills. These wheel sets feature a 19mm internal width and are tubeless ready. That means you can run lower tyre pressures for greater cornering grip and compliance with reduced rolling resistance without the risk of pinch flats. When it comes to pure speed, the Gran Fondo Tubeless packs a serious punch.
It’s lightweight yet stiff design returns maximum value for your effort. The selected rim profiles help to achieve the optimisation of low aerodynamic drag and crosswind stability. The Grooved Graphene textured braking surface delivers unrivalled rim braking performance in wet or dry conditions and is manufactured with very high Tg carbon fibre resin good for 250 degrees centigrade. At the centre of the Gran Fondo Tubeless is an Extralite hub set, handmade in Italy.

Hub Set, Rim Brake – Extralite hub set hand made in Italy. The CyberFront SP hub weighs only 48g and has a super wide flange spacing resulting in the highest possible lateral wheel stiffness. The CyberRear SP-T2 hub weighs only 130g and uses a triplet lacing pattern with 16 drive side spokes and 8 non-drive side spokes. Due to the dished geometry of the wheel this results in balanced spoke tensions.
