DFS LEGACY MAX Rim Brake Carbon Wheelset

CLASSIC ROAD. MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE.

The DFS LEGACY MAX is an upgraded rim brake carbon wheelset designed for riders who want a higher-performance build while keeping the classic feel and compatibility of a rim brake road bike.

Using the same proven 19mm internal / 26mm external carbon rim profile as the LEGACY series, LEGACY MAX pairs it with the DFS R2 hub and Sapim CX-Ray spokes for a lighter, more refined and performance-focused wheelset.


01. DFS R2 HIGH-PERFORMANCE HUB

The LEGACY MAX is built around the DFS R2 hub, our in-house high-performance road hub designed to provide a balanced combination of stiffness, reliability and smooth operation.

The R2 is engineered for efficient power transfer while maintaining the durability required for long-term road use.

02 . SAPIM CX-RAY SPOKES

LEGACY MAX uses Sapim CX-Ray spokes, chosen for their excellent combination of low weight, aerodynamic characteristics and fatigue resistance.

Combined with the R2 hub and optimized spoke layout, CX-Ray spokes help create a responsive and efficient wheel build without sacrificing long-term reliability.
