DERONDE Alloy Wheelset - Disc Brake


Description

The DERONDE Alloy Wheelset is a hand-built disc brake wheelset designed to handle the demands that most wheels simply can't. Named after Paris-Roubaix (Tour de Ronde de Vlaanderen) - a race legendary for its punishing cobblestones and rugged conditions - the DERONDE is built to take a beating and keep rolling. Based on the popular D'Huez wheel but constructed with added strength and durability, it's the natural choice for heavier riders, loaded touring, and roads that would humble a lesser wheel.

Built in Colorado with American-made rims, the DERONDE features a 25mm deep alloy aero rim with a 21mm internal width, accommodating tires from 25mm to 45mm wide and offering easy tubeless setup. The ROL CLD disc hubs deliver a compelling balance of lightweight construction and long-term reliability, available with Shimano HG, SRAM XDR, and Campagnolo freehub bodies - as well as both thru-axle and quick release axle options - so this wheelset fits seamlessly into virtually any drivetrain and frame configuration.


Key Features

  • American-Made Rims, Hand-Built in Colorado: Crafted domestically for quality you can trust on every ride.
  • 25mm Deep Alloy Aero Rim: Delivers aerodynamic efficiency with the durability of quality alloy construction.
  • 21mm Internal / 26mm External Rim Width: Wide profile supports modern tire sizing and improves handling and comfort.
  • Tire Clearance 25mm-45mm: Compatible with everything from fast road tires to gravel and touring rubber.
  • Tubeless Easy Setup: Rim design allows for hassle-free tubeless conversion with a standard floor pump.
  • 32-Spoke 3-Cross Lacing (Front & Rear): Proven spoke pattern and count deliver strength and long-term reliability for heavy loads and rough terrain.
  • Black Stainless Steel Spokes with Brass Nipples: Corrosion-resistant materials built for years of hard use.
  • ROL CLD Disc Hubs: Lightweight, durable, and dependable - available in thru-axle (12x100/12x142) and quick release configurations.
  • Freehub Compatibility - Shimano HG, SRAM XDR, Campagnolo: Works with virtually all popular road and gravel drivetrains.
  • 280 lb. Recommended Rider Weight Limit: Built for a wide range of riders, including heavier cyclists and those carrying loaded touring setups.

Freehub Body & Axle Options - Which to Choose

  • Shimano HG: The most widely used freehub standard, compatible with Shimano and many other road and gravel groupsets. Ideal for riders running Shimano Dura-Ace, Ultegra, 105, GRX, or compatible aftermarket cassettes.
  • Campagnolo: Designed specifically for Campagnolo drivetrains. If you're running Campagnolo Record, Chorus, or Potenza, this is your freehub. Campagnolo cassettes require a dedicated freehub body, so this option is a must for Campy users.
  • SRAM XDR: The road-specific version of SRAM's XD driver system, required for SRAM Red eTap AXS and Force eTap AXS cassettes. Best for riders running modern SRAM wireless groupsets.
  • 12x100/12x142 Thru-Axle: The modern standard for disc brake road and gravel frames. Provides superior stiffness, improved wheel retention, and better brake alignment. Recommended for any frame with thru-axle dropouts.
  • Quick Release: Compatible with older or more traditional disc brake frames that use a quick release skewer. A solid choice if your frame specifies QR dropouts.

Why You'll Love It

The DERONDE isn't just built to look good - it's built to endure. Whether you're hammering rough gravel, piling on loaded touring miles, or simply demanding more from your wheels than a standard build can deliver, the DERONDE rises to the occasion. Hand-built in Colorado with American-made rims and battle-tested ROL hubs, every detail reflects a commitment to quality that mass-produced wheelsets can't match. The brushed alloy finish, wide tubeless-ready rim, and robust 32-spoke lacing make this a wheelset that will outlast trends and keep performing season after season. For riders who know what they want and expect their gear to keep up, the DERONDE is a wheelset worth investing in.

FAQ

What is the difference between the DERONDE and the D'Huez wheelset?

The DERONDE is based on the D'Huez platform but is built with added strength and durability in mind. It's specifically designed for heavier riders (up to 280 lbs), loaded touring, and rougher road conditions. If you need a more robust wheel that can handle serious punishment, the DERONDE is the right choice.

What freehub body do I need?

That depends on your drivetrain. Choose Shimano HG if you're running a Shimano groupset (or most other compatible brands), Campagnolo if you're running a Campy groupset, or SRAM XDR if you're using SRAM's AXS road components like Red or Force eTap AXS. If you're unsure, check your cassette manufacturer's specifications.

Should I choose thru-axle (12x100/12x142) or quick release?

Check your frame's dropout specification. Modern disc brake road and gravel frames typically use thru-axle dropouts (12mm front and rear), while some older disc brake frames use quick release skewers. Thru-axle offers improved stiffness and brake rotor alignment, but quick release is still a valid option for compatible frames.

Are these wheels tubeless ready?

Yes - the DERONDE features a Tubeless Easy rim design that allows for a straightforward tubeless setup using a standard floor pump. You'll need tubeless tape, a compatible tubeless valve, and tubeless sealant, which are typically sold separately.

How do I get the lifetime warranty?

The DERONDE Alloy Wheelset is eligible for a lifetime warranty when purchased together with the Lifetime Warranty Alloy add-on product. This bundle is available directly from the product page and covers the wheelset for the long haul.

What tire widths are compatible with the DERONDE?

The DERONDE's 21mm internal rim width accommodates tires ranging from 25mm to 45mm wide, making it equally at home with fast road tires, all-road rubber, and light gravel or touring tires.
