TUBOLAR RIMS

Each series of rims, fromSIGMA to CONTAX, even if de­signed to meet a particular need ;has been developed using thesame Quality, the same engineer­ing, the same product ion methodsand has undergone the same rigor­ous quality control tests .

This industrial policy calledfor a long, carefu l examination ofcompatibility and optimizationnot only of the materials used butalso of the production processesand design.

Today. thanks to our inten­sive research, the most technolo­gically advanced, highest Qualityrims are available for all cyclists­CampagnoJo Rims.

Campagnolo SIGMA rimshave been crea ted by the expe ri-

ence achieved through years ofraces on every road and track inthe world, and meet all competi­tive requirements.

The SIG MA series of rims isdesigned for victory. State of th eart technological processes and so­phisticated research are combinedto give the cyclist a measure ofquality and safe ty never before of­fe red in a rim.

In project design. the highestconside ration was given to the ri ·gidity/elasticity combinat ion inorde r to ensure the trueness oftherim and its ability to withs tand de­formation unde r stress. includingabsorption of impacts.

Thanks to the technology andchoice of the material Campag­nolo SIG MA rims can easily be

trued, this saves mechanics hoursof wheel adjustme nt after a race.

Patented eyele ts, posit ionedaccording to the cam be r and thecross ing. are safer with regards tothe duration of spokes. remarkab­ly reducing the possibilities ofbreakage in the most cri ticalzones.

The Campagnolo OMEGArims were designed to satisfy theneeds of the most advanced cycl­ing amateurs and are available inmodels for bot h clin cher and tu­bular tires.

TUBULAR RIMS: in thiscase, Campagnolo has applied thetechnology developed fo r its com­petition rims, thus givingOMEGA the sporting characte­ri stic loved by bicycle fans .

An effective, layered hardanod ization fi nish gi ves the rim itscharacteristic burnished color.The OMEGA XL rim respondsvery well to short and continuousstre ss typical of uphi ll or amateurraces.

From a technological point ofview, LAMBDA tubu lar rims are

similar to those designed for al1­out competitive use but withoutthe high price normally associatedwith such technology.

The patented Campagnoloeyelet is mounted on theLAMBDA rims as well.

The aluminium/magnesiumalloy used has an elastic module of7100 Kg/ sq mm. This allows rn a­chine centering and balancing ofthe wheel witho ut prob lems. Th emechanical characteristics of th ematerial and the profil e projectedfor the LAMBDA rims give theseproducts a capacity to absorb im­pacts which is essential for com­fort. And it does this without corn ­promising the security of the holdand the non-deformabi lity of then m.

OMEGA and LAMBDA areproduced using the best materialsand manufacturing methods.They are excellent quality, th eyfully satisfy all ofthe requirementsand are perfect for both those ridea lot and for those who only ridefew kil ometers a year.

CROCHET RIMS

The use of the light clinche rsis increasing, favoured by the re­search and development of newmaterials and techniques.

Campagnolo is present in thisb ranch with a complete range ofabsolute vanguard.

The rim OMEGA XL Stradais born to win. Its lightness givesthe utmost in the athletics and cansatisfy, with its resilience , themost particular professionals.

The types OMEGA, LAMB­DA fully meet the demands bothof the cycletourism and of the ath­letics.

OMEGA rims for clinchertires come in two versions, normalbox-section or «v Prof ile». Theyare both made of the same heattreated Mg-Si aluminium alloy so

their stregth is equal but becauseno spoke eyele ts are used for themodel with «v Profi le», it is a fewgrams lighter. The HARDOX ano­dization which increases the su­perficial hardness of the rim andthe heat treatment which im­proves the mechan ical stre ngth ofthe material combine to giveOMEGA clincher tire rims un pa­ralleled reliab ility.

LAMBDA rims for clinchertires, just like their OMEGAcounterparts, are designed in twoversions: with normal and «V Pro­file" and these new Campagnolorims use the same heat-treatedaluminium alloy normally foundin rims costing twice as much.Th is superior aluminium alloycomb ined with Carnpagnolo's

ul tra-modern manufactu ring tech­nique guarantee that wheels b uiltwith LAMBDA rims will look andperform like new for months tocome.

To satisfy the requests ofthe specialist as well as the mountain bikeenthusiast, Campagnolo has introduced a new line of rims specificallydivided into two types. These rims are the results ofextensive fie ld test ­ing with many of the top professional racers in mountain biking today:the rim names are Thorr and Contax.

Both of these rims have a very high degree of technical innovation,reliab ility and res is tance to ext reme con ditions. The use ofspecial alloyshas allowed Campagnolo to obtain an extremely light and durable rim.We have derived the shape of these rims after a long and accurate CA Dstudy. This style of rim will make braking more efficient and positive.

The use of traditional cantilevers as well as caliper brakes are pos­sible with Thorr.

Contax has been designed for the most demanding competition.It's compact cross section design and light weight make it ideal fo r racingapplications.

This rim has a very high resistance to deformation. The un ique de­sign of the sidewalls will provide the most efficient braking possible.Even in the worst conditions. In the eve nt ofa flat tire, especially in com­petition, th e tire may be easily changed without the use of tools.

This is a considerable advantage in a competition where no techni­cal assistance is allowed and only a fewseconds may make the differencebetween winning and loosing.

FLUID-DYNAMIC WHEELS

ERGONOMICS OF THEGIIIBLI M23

GHIBLI M23 FLUID-DY·NAMIC wheels have been de­signed for highly specialized uses.

For this reason Campagnolohas designed two different mo­dels, one fo r track events and onefor road racing, because the pro­fessional requirements of thesetwo sectors are very dilTerent.

The road version of theGHIBLI M23 has a structure witha vertical elasticity almost equal tothat ofa spoked wh eel; and defini­tely offers greater elasticity thanany of the current disc wheelsavailable.

At the same time the trans­versal rigidity is equal to even thebest rims available for spokedwheels, ensuring safety with theFLUID-DYNAM IC GHIBLI M23wheel without any reduction ofcomfort. (Diagram 5).

These characteristics are es­sential in enabling the athlete togive the best possible perfor­mance, particularly in the timetrail eve nt.

In this type ofrace, any reduc­tion of fatigue (due to «roadshock») can result in preciou stime gained over your competitor.

On the other hand, becausethe surface of a velodrome issmooth and events are short in du­ration comfort is not a factor. Fur­thermore, du ri ng track events theth rust of the athlete is directedonto the hubs in a sharper andmore concentrated manner thanin road races. What is really impor-

tant for a track disc is the effic iencyofthe hub and its ability of trans­forming as much energy as pos­sible into acceleration and move­ment.

The track version of theGHIBLJ M23 is the refore very ri­gid, both vertically and trans­versely.

G HIBLI M23 "G YROSCOPIC'A PROFESSIONAL SYSTEM

Disc wheels are often usedfor highly specialist competiti onssuch as individual or team trackpursuit. 100 kilometre team timetrials, stayers, etc.

Experiments have shownthat in all team competitions themost crucial element is the diffi­culty encountered by the ri derwho leaves the leading posit ionwhe n he has to slip in behind thelast team member without losingthe advantage of being pulledalong fl uidodynamically.

During this move, wh icheach of the 4 team members re­peats as many as 500 times in a 100kilometre competition, the athletehas to fee l th e front wheel in thehand lebars.

Experiments have shownthat if the front wheel is given anadequate gyroscopic understeer­ing effect. this allows the athletegreater safety in achieving exactlythe right final position.

For this reason the patentedstructure of the GHIB LI M23« GYROSCOPIC» has been ar­ranged in such a way that Campag­nolo technicians can vary certainparameters that adapt the shoul­der, the tilt, the weight and the gy­roscopic effect of the fl uid-dynam­ic wheel to suit specifi c require­ments. Our Research and Deve­lopment Department is at your di­sposal to solve all kind s of prob ­lems in collaboration with theuser.

KHAMSINKHAMSIN F LUID·DYNA­

:\UC wheels are made with a dif­ferent structural principal than theGHIBLI M23. For this designCampagnolo's Research and De­velopment department opted formodel with load bearing by com­pression . In other words, the wallsof the KHAMSIN wheel are rigida.oct act as support pillars for thenm.

The lightness of the KHAM­SIN wheel is possible thanks to anexclusive material which reducesweight and improves the quality ofair flow. This is a super-light mate­rial with a honeycomb structure,bonded by means of polyme riza­tion with resin-impregnated fibrefabrics. Air flow is also opt imizeddue to the computer design con­tour of the sidewall.

KHAMSIN rear wheels use aspecial hub that can be trans­forme d from road to track u se andvice versa simply by changing theaxle.

On one side of the rear wheelhub there is a thread for free­wheels, while on the other sidethere is a thread on which thetrack cog with its inverse threadlocknut can be fitt ed . A cover forthe hub th read not in use is alsoprovided.

For those who are interestedin taking part in high-level compe­tition, the KHAMSIN road modelis the ideal fl uid-dynamic wheelfor developing and emphasizing

the talents of a fast rider or a pro­mising sprinter.

For th e Club rider or youngracer this is an especially nice fea­ture because one wheel can meetthe demands of both road andtrack specialities.

KHAMSIN FLUID-DYNA­M IC whee ls are shipped withhubs already adj usted the block­ing mechanism, howe~er, shouldbe assembled before use.

Just like GHIBLl M23wheels, KHAMSIN FLUID-DY­NAMIC wheels individually sub­mitted to the stringent qualitytests outlined below.

SCIROCCO

The most recent patent forCampagnolo in the disc whee lfield is Scirocco. It is a front wheelspecifically designed to be usedeven in windy conditions thanksto the four openings on the wallsofthe disc. Campagnolo engineersha ve done extensive testing in de­veloping the biconically shapedsides in order to take full advan­tage of the aerodynam ic principlesfo und in a winged shape.

This solution guarantees thatthe Scirocco disc will give the riderthe safest and easiest hand lingpossib le, while still maintaining aconsiderable aerodynamic advan­tage even in unexpected gusts ofwind.

THE BAGS

Both KHAMSIN, GHlBLlM23 and SCIROCCO fl uid-dy­namic wheels can be easily tran­sported in the special bags provid­ed by Campagnclo. The bags aremade of scrathproof nylon, theyare wate rproof, washable, and arenot effected by changes in te mpe­rature, thanks to the characteris­tics of the nylon.

The padding has been care­fully chosen to ensure the bestprotection to weight ratio so thatthe wheels are protected against li­mited accidental knocks whentransported. The bags are avail­able in two versions: single for onewheel or dou ble for pairs. Thesingle version has a rigid reinfor­cement in the middle to protectthe sidewalls against the pressureof the qu ick release. The doubleversion has an inner compartmentfor storage of the quick releases.
