Engineered as the pinnacle of road racing performance, the FARSPORTS Ultimate S5 EVO Wheelset HG fuses cutting-edge aerodynamic engineering with unmatched power transfer. Built around a 50mm rim profile, this wheelset is designed to slice through the air while maintaining impressive crosswind stability, making it the ultimate all-rounder for rolling terrain, fast group rides, and race days.
The hallmark of the Ultimate S5 EVO is its revolutionary integrated architecture. By permanently bonding bladed carbon spokes directly into an oversized carbon hub flange, mechanical play and flex are completely eliminated. This design delivers instantaneous acceleration and superior lateral rigidity, ensuring every watt of your pedalling effort translates directly into forward momentum.
Featuring a modern 24mm internal rim width and a hooked tubeless-ready profile, the S5 EVO provides optimal sidewall support for wider road tyres, delivering lower rolling resistance and smoother cornering control. Complete with a Shimano/SRAM Hyperglide (HG) compatible star-ratchet freehub, it delivers crisp, reliable drive engagement on every ride.
Integrated Carbon Hub & Spokes: Carbon bladed spokes are permanently bonded to the carbon hub flange for maximum lateral stiffness and flex-free power transfer.
50mm Aerodynamic Profile: Mid-depth rim depth optimized via supercomputer CFD simulations for maximum speed and crosswind stability.
Wide Hooked Tubeless Rim: Features a modern 24mm internal width to support wider tubeless tyres for reduced rolling resistance and extra cornering grip.
Rim Depth: 50mm
Internal Width: 24mm
External Width: 30mm
Total Weight: 1160g (approx.)
Spoke Count: 20 Front / 20 Rear Bladed Carbon
Freehub Body: Shimano / SRAM HG (11/12-speed)
Disc Brake Mount: Centre Lock
Axle Spacing: 12x100mm Front / 12x142mm Rear Thru-Axle
✅ Featherweight Climbers & Racers: Tipping the scales at a mere 1160g, it offers world-class acceleration without sacrificing aerodynamic depth.
✅ Maximum Stiffness Seekers: The bonded carbon spoke and flange system ensures zero spoke flex under explosive sprint efforts.
✅ Modern Tyre Compatibility: The 24mm internal rim width seamlessly matches with modern 28mm to 30mm tubeless road tyres.
❌ SRAM AXS Road Users: Equipped with a Shimano HG freehub body; users running SRAM 12-speed road cassettes will require an XDR driver.
❌ Traditional Mechanical Servicing: The integrated carbon spoke and hub construction means damaged spokes cannot be replaced like standard steel-spoked wheels.
❌ Heavy Off-Road / Gravel Use: Purpose-built for high-performance road riding and racing rather than rough gravel trails.
Because the Ultimate S5 EVO utilizes a modern 24mm internal rim width, pair these wheels with 28mm tubeless road tyres inflated to slightly lower pressures (around 55-65 PSI depending on rider weight). This creates an aerodynamically flush rim-to-tyre interface that smooths out harsh road buzz while drastically lowering rolling resistance!
