Any keen cyclist can dream of the impossible: winning the Tour de France, setting a club record, or getting a carbon wheelset for the price of alloy. Think again – because carbon costs a lot less when you order a wheelset from the US warehouse of ICAN. Carbon is possible! Not too long ago, ICAN's world class products were shipped from Asia, and paid taxes. Postage and shipping cost a lot, since our factories were half a world away from the US. And that's why ICAN set up a warehouse in California. There are no taxes to pay, so we trimmed the prices. Shipping is fast and easy in North America, so we decided to absorb those costs to bring prices even lower – and deliver the goods without delay. If you're thinking of a new carbon wheelset, here's a possibility to think about: the Aero 40 from ICAN's US warehouse. Designed as a step-up from our best-selling FL 50 wheelset, the Aero 40 has stable 25mm rims, moulded from Toray T700 and T800 carbon cloth, and is ready for clinchers or tubeless. It weighs only 1314 grammes. Super-light R01 hubs are laced with aero Sapim CX-Ray spokes – 18 in front and 24 behind. And the rear hub is ready for a Shimano cassette. The Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) has okayed the Aero 40 wheelset for events held under its jurisdiction. This is top pro equipment which can give you an edge – for amateur prices, tax free with no shipping to pay. It's possible! 

Wide Rim Tech

25mm rim wide creates a better, more stable support, while the shape of the tire and rim together creates regular, stable air flow, in short, more aerodynamics, less attrition. provides an ideal basis for 25/28mm tires, the sizes currently popular.

2-Way Clincher Tubeless. Tubes or No-Tubes

Use either traditional tires with tubes, or tubeless tires without tubes. Tubeless tires can provide lower rolling resistance and better protection from punctures.

Sapim CX-RAY As light as a titanium spoke

The CX-Ray still receives the best results in fatigue testing of any spoke. The CX-Ray aero spoke combines excellent aerodynamics with low weight and great strength. Not only are they more aerodynamic, they also make wheels lighter and stronger. 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.

UCI Approved

This wheelset has been certified and approved by the UCI (Union Cycliste Internationale), for use in UCI sanctioned road races.
