Metron 81 TL Wheelset

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"For TT and tri setups where speed is the only priority, these are a no-brainer. I’ve been impressed by their stiffness, and the braking surface actually inspires confidence when you're descending with rim brakes."

Designed with input from elite triathletes and refined through extensive CFD analysis and wind tunnel testing, the Vision Metron 81 TL Wheelset is the definitive choice for riders looking to maximize aerodynamic gains. At 81mm deep, these wheels thrive in the high-speed environments of time trials and non-drafting triathlons. The full carbon rims maintain lightweight responsiveness, while the 19mm internal width supports wider tires for reduced rolling resistance and better ride quality.

Vision’s P.R.A. hub system incorporates six sealed cartridge bearings and a preload reduction system that allows bearing adjustment without hub disassembly. Direct pull bladed spokes and a 2:1 lacing pattern enhance torsional stiffness and durability under peak loads, giving riders stable performance in everything from sprints to sidewind conditions. The rims feature a laser-etched micro-dot texture for improved braking performance on rim brake setups—a detail often overlooked but critical on technical courses.

Each set is hand-assembled with precision and includes key accessories like a tubeless kit, spoke protector, wheel bag, brake pads, and QR skewers. Compatible with Shimano, SRAM, and Campagnolo drivetrains, the Metron 81 SL is ready to slot into your race bike and start delivering split-crushing speed.
