  "account": "The No.6 52/58 Superlight Aero wheelset has earned a reputation in racing circles, being utilized by the DAS Hutchinson UCI women's team and Ineos Grenadiers development squad. Notably, some WorldTour teams employ blacked-out versions to avoid upsetting official sponsors. These wheels boast sleek gloss black rims with white logos, harmonizing well with various frames. Formed as part of the Superlight Aero lineup from No.6's 2026 ProjectSpeed, this set features 28, 42, 48, 52, 58, and 65mm rim profiles, with the specific 52mm front and 58mm rear configuration. The front wheel measures 32mm external width and 25mm internal width, while the rear uses 30mm external width and 24mm internal width. The claimed weight of the pair is 1,267g, which my scale measured at 1,281g, inclusive of rim tape and a Shimano HG 11/12 speed hub. The rims are crafted from a blend of Toray T700 and T800 carbon fiber, exhibiting a polished finish and employ hooked rather than hookless rims. Tubeless, they allow for a maximum tyre pressure of 110psi and a 110kg weight limit. Inside, the ceramic bearings roll smoothly, complemented by deep-profiled rear spokes. The spoke nipples are external and Aerotitanium Alloy, with carbon spokes lacing into them. The hubs, Zero Gravity v.3, come standard with Tripeak Ceramic Bearings and a 45-tooth ratchet engagement. Freehub options span Shimano HG, MSR, SRAM XDR, and Campagnolo N3W. Optimal performance with 28-30mm tyre widths is recommended, but 28-35mm are also viable. White and black decals are available. The silver hubs exude a sophisticated appearance.",
