After having experienced them firsthand, we want to tell you why they represent an excellent choice for the most demanding cyclists.
'From 1992 to today: a continuous evolution'
Born in 1992, they were the first wheels to introduce the concept of high profile, an innovation that revolutionized aerodynamics in the world of road cycling. Today, with the new Dual Profile version, Campagnolo continues to innovate, offering a wheel capable of ensuring stability, comfort, and responsiveness on every type of terrain.
Dual Profile: optimized aerodynamics and greater control
One of the most interesting elements of the Shamal Dual Profile is the differentiated profile 45/40 mm, designed to offer maximum aerodynamics and stability even in the presence of crosswinds. This means that, regardless of the weather conditions, the bike remains always manageable and precise in its trajectories.
Campagnolo has tested these wheels both in the wind tunnel and on the road, ensuring a design that reduces aerodynamic drag and improves handling.
Versatility without compromise
The Shamal Dual Profile are also extremely versatile, designed to be used on different types of terrain, from paved roads to dirt trails, without losing in responsiveness and comfort.
- Reduced weight: only 1,480 grams for the pair, perfect for tackling challenging climbs without sacrificing efficiency on flat terrain.
- High-quality material: made of unidirectional carbon with C-LUX finish, ensuring strength and lightness.
- Total compatibility: thanks to the C23 hooked-rim profile, they can accommodate clincher and tubeless tires starting from 28 mm, providing a smoother ride and greater vibration absorption.
G3™ Technology: designed rim for maximum performance
The Shamal Dual Profile adopts the G3™ spoke system, with 21 steel spokes with an elliptical aero section both at the front and rear. This design improves:
- Optimal power transfer avoiding energy losses.
- Rigidity and stability, especially during acceleration and cornering.
- Balancing of spoke tension, reducing the risk of structural imbalances.
Monolithic aluminum sliders: smoothness and reliability
To ensure maximum smoothness of movement, Campagnolo has designed monolithic black aluminum hubs, equipped with:
- 12 mm aluminum through pins, for greater rigidity and stability.
- Cone/cup bearing system, which reduces friction and ensures a long lifespan.
- Front hub 100 mm and rear hub 142 mm, for perfect alignment with modern road and gravel frames.
