Seismic and team have been teasing the 80.5mm Alphas for nearly a year and now they’re finally here. Hit the link to place your order or read on for more information.
Seismic’s 75.5mm Alphas have been a popular race wheel for a while now. They’re known for durability and lasting performance.
The 80.5mm have been on the radar since June of last year when CAD drawings showed up on team rider Aaron Hampshire’s Instagram:
Seismic put in a lot of hours into making these 80.5mm Alphas perfect. Now prototyping is wrapped up and they’re available for oder.
The larger Alphas are skinnier than the 75.5mm but in both cases they weigh more. These wheels will roll faster with more momentum while still staying surprisingly efficient, grippy and affording lots of braking power.
Seismic dropped two sizes – one specifically designed for downhill (DH) and the other for long distance push (LDP).
