Had a lot of rope end wheel sets and these are the best by far, I have the CLX Roval Rapide 50 special edition with the chrome hubs, they are so light and responsive truly amazing wheelset

I road my new wheels for the first time in an epic Boulder Roubaix with wind gusts clocked around 60mph. With one scary exception, these wheels remained stable in cross winds. Fantastic.

I believe these are some of the best wheels available

Had the S-Works 26mm RapidAir Tubeless tyres fitted and because the front wheel is so much wider than the tyre, there is a big chunk of carbon rim sticking out on the sides that is unprotected. I went through a small pothole and cracked the side of the rim because of this issue. What's worse, there is no 100% crash replacement in Asia and I had to fork out money to replace the front wheel. I don't think it should be stated that it's optimised for 26mm when this size tyre can't protect the rim. I switched to 28mm 2BR tyres and it's barely flush and much heavier. I believe this is a product flaw and hope Specialized can fix this. Besides this, the wheels are a good compromise between speed and responsiveness with great crosswind performance.

Best wheelset I’ve owned by far

Tried plenty of wheels, from Campy, to Enve and Zipp and everything in between, and now specialized. Nice wheels but a handful in gusty wind conditions. The Enve are still top of the line regarding how smooth you can ride in windy conditions, these ones keep you on the edge.

Ich habe diesen herausragenden LS vor einiger Zeit bekommen und bin überaus zufrieden. Die Qualität des LS ist über alle Zweifel erhaben. Der LS sieht nicht nur in live deutlich besser aus, dieser ist auch recht leicht und ich finde absolut nichts worüber ich meckern könnte, dabei finde ich immer was 😅 Ob dieser Aero LS mich schneller macht? Ich weiß es nicht, ich fühle mich jedenfalls verdammt schnell auf Ihnen und selbst bei Seitenwind verliere ich nicht die Kontrolle. Nun gut, der relativ hohe Anschaffungspreis trübt minimal das Punktekonto des LS, doch dafür hat man auch ein erstklassiges Produkt. Alles in einem sehr zu empfehlen!

I own and race them all. Enve 5.6, Zipp 404, Hunts, Reynolds. These CLX2's are expensive.....but they're stiff, fast, and easy to maintain. The hub engagement is instant. Sprinting out of corners has never felt better. Same with descents. Are their cheaper wheels that are 90% as good? Kind of? In my opinion this might be the perfect wheelset. I run them with latex tubes and clinchers. Purchased a 2nd set and sold a few used wheels. They're that good.

Excellent, fast wheels. I had really enjoyed the previous generation but have been patiently waiting for tubeless. If you use Specialized’s own tubeless tires set-up is easy- can easily use a track valve. The only caveat- replace the valves- they are awful and leak very easily. Despite being deeper wheels the wheels are not super heavy. Cross winds can be somewhat sketchy but that’s hard to eliminate on deeper wheels. That said without any high winds the wheels just slice through the air. Engagement with the DT Swiss hubs is instantaneous. Definitely recommend- just knocked off a star for specialized not using better valves.

Optisch eine Augenweide und auch bei Seitenwind extrem gut und schnell zu fahren. Einmal Roval, immer Roval! auch wenn der Preis schmerzt ;-)
