700c 45mm Deep-V Wheelset - Dark Blue

Product Overview

This 700c wheelset features 45mm deep-section rims laced to flip-flop hubs with 32 black spokes per wheel. The rear hub includes both a 16-tooth fixed cog and 16-tooth freewheel, allowing riders to choose between fixed-gear or single-speed freewheel operation. Includes Chaoyang tires and inner tubes for a ready-to-ride setup.

Key Features

• 45mm deep-section rims – Aerodynamic rim profile adds stiffness and visual impact; 36-hole drilling for durable spoke count
• Flip-flop rear hub – Reversible hub allows switching between fixed-gear (16T cog) and freewheel (16T) by flipping the wheel
• 16T gear ratio included – Both fixed cog and freewheel are 16-tooth for consistent gearing regardless of drivetrain choice
• Loose ball bearing hubs – Serviceable hub design allows for adjustment and maintenance; lower cost than sealed bearing systems
• 32-spoke lacing – Black spokes provide strength and even load distribution across the rim

Compatibility and Ideal Use Cases

This wheelset fits any frame and fork designed for 700c wheels with track-style horizontal dropouts or adjustable rear dropouts (required for proper chain tension on fixed-gear or single-speed setups). Not compatible with derailleur-geared bikes or vertical dropouts without a chain tensioner. The flip-flop hub design is ideal for fixed-gear and single-speed riders who want the option to switch between fixed and freewheel riding styles. Best suited for urban commuting, track riding, or street use on fixed-gear or single-speed builds. Verify your frame's rear spacing (typically 120mm for track/fixed frames) before ordering.
