C-LUX – Campagnolo
Campagnolo is renowned for its carbon wheel innovations. These include: C-LUX finish (Campagnolo Luxury) stands out for its clean aesthetic and functional advantages. This unique process ensures not only an impeccable design, but also concrete benefits in terms of performance.
What is the C-LUX finish?
Finishing C-LUX is based on perfect control of carbon material. Unlike traditional processes, it does not require lacquering. The mirror effect is obtained by controlling outer thickness of resin, which already composes the rim structure. This allows to obtain a perfectly smooth surface, without moulding defect, and eliminate any unnecessary paint addition.
What are the advantages of C-LUX finishing?
1. Significant weight gain
By removing the need for additional coating or coating, the C-LUX finish helps lighten the wheel, improving efficiency and responsiveness.
2. High-end aesthetics
The bright and homogeneous appearance of the apparent carbon fibre gives the wheels a unique design. They become so a true element of distinction for cyclists concerned with the aesthetics of their bike.
3. An optimized rim bottom for the tubeless
The C-LUX finish is not limited to the outside of the rims. It also benefits from the rim bottom, as on the Bora Ultra WTO. This precise treatment makes it possible to optimize the positioning of tyres without an air chamber (tubeless), facilitating their installation and reducing the risk of heel damage.
4. An asset in terms of reliability and security
By ensuring a more precise adjustment of the tires, the C-LUX finish ensures a better tire holding on the rim, which minimizes the risk of slipping and improves safety.
