The Sapim CX-Ray is the Best Spoke on the Market!Almost as light as Titanium.Elliptic middle section for unparalleled aerodynamics.Extremely high fatigue resistance and durability.No hub modification necessary, maintaining the manufacturer’s warranty.The aerodynamic bladed CX-Ray still receives one of the best results in fatigue testing of any spoke. The middle section of the spoke is drawn then pressed in a special mold to form its specific profile. Its unique strength and flexibility make the CX-Ray suitable for most bicycle disciplines.CX-Ray spokes are used by top bike racers and triathletes around the world. Even downhillers use them, recognizing their strength and flexibility. Special alloy treatment and sophisticated production make this all possible. The CX-Ray fits in all standard hub holes.Technical specs:Weight: 4.25 grams x 64 spokes (260 mm) = 272 grams Diameter: 2.0 – 2.2×0.9 – 2.0 mm Thread: 2 mm (14G) Shape: bladed (elliptical middle section) Spoke head: J-Bend Material: high-tensile, fatigue-resistant 18/8 stainless steel Quality: AISI 302 Strength on middle section: 1600 N/mm² Offered lengths: 252-292 mm (cut to length in factory by Sapim) Color: Black The Sapim PolyAx Aluminium Secure Lock Nipples are the Benchmark for Premium Wheels!With 0.34 grams per nipple they are 3x lighter than brass saving up to 45 grams per wheel.Rounded PolyAx head profile for optimal spoke alignment and durability.Coated for better corrosion resistance and lower friction.Produced from highest grade 7075 T6 Aluminium.14 mm length perfect for carbon rims.SecureLock System prevents untightening.Aluminum is the material of choice for higher performance. For this purpose, Sapim has chosen the highest aluminum grade possible, 7075 T6. It combines low weight, strength and corrosion resistance. Sapim’s state-of-the-art manufacturing ensures the best quality available on the market.PolyAxThe nipple head is working like a ball joint for a better spoke-nipple alignment.CoatingCoating is applied on all aluminium nipples. The coating is applied on the thread and on the nipple. Friction between both spoke and nipple and rim and nipple is significantly reduced. Coating also seals the surface reducing corrosion. This is standard in Sapim’s production.Silent, effective truing with no more squeaksVirtually torsion free spokesHigh tension wheels without problemsNo over tight nipples on spoke threadsNo more oily and dirty wheelsJust efficient dry working and clean handsNo unnecessary cleaningWheels are easier to trueSecure LockHighly precise and accurate punching machines are needed to form this type of locking system in order to achieve a stable and well defined deformation on the thread. Each nipple has an additional locking resistance of 18 +/- 3 cNm.Technical specs:Weight: 0.34 grams: 64 nipples x 0.34 grams = 21.82 grams Thread: 2 mm (14G) Secure Lock: yes Length: 14 mm (optimal for Carbon rims that have a thicker rim bed or rims with eyelets) Material: 7075 T6 Aluminium Color: black
