Bearings
Freehub

The EVO C5 takes the C Series rim and steel-spoke build onto Farsports' EVO hub package, in two versions: steel bearings at 1280 g or CeramicSpeed at 1260 g. Both are lighter than the standard C5, and both carry a 120 kg rider weight limit.

  • Rim — 50 mm deep, 31.5 mm external and 24 mm internal, hooked and tubeless-ready
  • Spokes — Alpina® Ultralite steel, 21 front and 24 rear, 2:1 lacing; the CeramicSpeed build adds Sapim® CX-Super
  • Hubs — Farsports CH01F / CH01R ratchet, Center Lock
  • Weight — 1280 g with steel bearings, 1260 g with CeramicSpeed
  • Rider weight limit — 120 kg
  • Freehub — Shimano HG 11/12-speed or SRAM XDR

Choose the EVO C5 if you want steel spokes with better bearings and the 120 kg limit is not a problem. Need no weight limit at all? The C5. Want the lightest wheel at this depth? The EVO S5 at 1180 g. Full side by side: C, S and EVO compared.

Working it out? Our guides cover choosing between 45, 50 and 58 mm, what a 120 kg rider weight limit actually means, and whether your bike takes an HG or XDR freehub.

We walk the factory floor before we list a brand.

RC Vélo is three riders in Montréal. Before a brand appears here we visit the headquarters and the production line — not a catalogue call, not a distributor's word. Every brand we add goes through the same visit.

Priced in Canadian dollars, duties paid, advice in English or French.
