Princeton Carbonworks Wake 6560 Evolution II Wheelset DT Swiss 240 Xdr

DEEP-SECTION AERODYNAMICS WITHOUT THE TRADITIONAL DEEP-WHEEL COMPROMISES, THE PRINCETON CARBONWORKS WAKE 6560 EVOLUTION II COMBINES EXCEPTIONAL AERODYNAMIC EFFICIENCY, LOW WEIGHT AND HIGH LATERAL STIFFNESS WITH PROVEN DT SWISS 240 HUBS FOR A PREMIUM CARBON ROAD WHEELSET BUILT FOR SPEED.

The sixth evolution of Princeton CarbonWorks' flagship Wake platform, the Wake 6560 Evolution II further refines its distinctive variable-depth rim concept with a lighter carbon construction, wider 22 mm internal profile and pre-balanced rim design.

Designed around modern 28 mm road tyres, its 60-65 mm variable-depth profile delivers the aerodynamic advantages of a deep-section race wheel while retaining responsive acceleration, low weight and confident handling.

Finished in Princeton CarbonWorks' striking Gloss/Chrome, this complete front and rear wheelset pairs the Wake 6560 Evolution II rim platform with premium DT Swiss 240 hubs and a SRAM XDR freehub.
SOLD AS A COMPLETE FRONT AND REAR WHEELSET.


KEY FEATURES

60-65 mm Variable-Depth Rim Profile
Princeton CarbonWorks' distinctive rim profile continuously varies between 60 mm and 65 mm in depth, combining deep-section aerodynamic performance with responsive handling and excellent stiffness.

Evolution II Carbon Construction
An updated carbon layup reduces individual rim weight to approximately 420 g while maintaining high impact resistance, resulting in an exceptionally light wheelset considering its deep aerodynamic profile.

DT Swiss 240 Hubs
Premium DT Swiss 240 hubs complement the Wake 6560 Evolution II rim platform with low weight, proven reliability and excellent long-term serviceability.

SRAM XDR Freehub
Supplied with a SRAM XDR freehub body for compatibility with suitable SRAM road drivetrain configurations.

Designed Around 28 mm Tyres
A modern 22 mm internal rim width and maximum 33 mm external width have been developed around 28 mm road tyres, creating an efficient tyre-to-rim interface for contemporary high-performance road riding.

Fully Hooked Rim Design
The Wake 6560 Evolution II uses a fully hooked bead profile, providing compatibility with suitable clincher and tubeless road tyres.

Tubeless Ready Without Rim Tape
A non-drilled tyre bed eliminates spoke holes through the rim bed, removing the need for tubeless rim tape. Tubeless valves are included with the wheelset.

Pre-Balanced Rims
Evolution II rims are pre-balanced to help reduce unwanted vibration and harmonics at speed, further refining the smoothness and efficiency of the wheelset.

Approximately 1,345 g Wheelset Weight
Despite its deep 60-65 mm aerodynamic profile, the Wake 6560 Evolution II with DT Swiss 240 hubs weighs approximately 1,345 g, delivering an impressive combination of aerodynamic performance and low weight.

24-Spoke Construction
Front and rear wheels use 24 Alpina Hyperlite Aero steel spokes, combining aerodynamic performance, serviceability and dependable structural support.


WHY TO CHOOSE

The Princeton CarbonWorks Wake 6560 Evolution II is designed for riders who don't want to choose between a lightweight wheel and a deep aerodynamic wheel.
Its combination of a 60-65 mm variable-depth carbon rim, approximately 1,345 g wheelset weight, 22 mm internal width and high lateral stiffness makes it equally at home during fast bunch rides, road racing, rolling courses and high-speed solo efforts.

Pairing the Wake Evolution II rim platform with DT Swiss 240 hubs makes this an excellent choice for riders who value proven hub performance, reliability and long-term serviceability alongside outright aerodynamic performance.

The Gloss/Chrome finish completes the package with an unmistakably premium aesthetic that complements the Wake's distinctive sculpted carbon rim profile.


PERFECT FOR

High-performance road riding, road racing, fast bunch rides, criteriums, rolling terrain, high-speed training, triathlon and riders looking for a deep aerodynamic wheelset without excessive weight.
