50mm carbon disc wheelset
Deda SL5 Carbon Disc Wheelset
A 50mm-deep carbon wheelset that balances aero gains with everyday usability, equally at home on fast road rides and smoother gravel.
Highlights
Why we rate it
All-rounder depth
At 50mm the rims offer a useful aero advantage without the crosswind penalty of deeper sections, making them a strong choice for mixed riding.
Built around wider tyres
The 23mm internal rim is designed for tyres from 28mm upwards, suiting today's road set-ups and lighter gravel tyres.
Carbon layup
High-modulus carbon combining UD and 3K fibres keeps the rims stiff for direct power transfer.
Workshop-friendly
External nipples make truing straightforward, with a PTFE/Kevlar layer where nipple meets rim.
Allroad hubs
AL7075 hub bodies with lower flanges and a 40-tooth dual-ratchet system, running on steel bearings.
Fitting
Compatibility
For disc-brake road and gravel bikes using 12 x 100mm front and 12 x 142mm rear thru-axles with Centre Lock rotors. Available with Shimano HG, SRAM XDR or Campagnolo N3W freehubs.
