Briefly

The New CADEX Max 50 is a 1290g Aero Wheelset That Climbs Like It Shouldn't
"The Max 50 improves transmission stiffness by 5.4% and rear transmission stiffness-to-weight by 14.3% over the Ultra 50. That translates to a more immediate response when sprinting, surging, and closing the gap. The rear wheel, in particular, feels tighter and more direct."
"The Max 50 isn't just a lighter refresh; it's a more tightly integrated system than its predecessor. Where the Ultra 50 felt like a fast, aero wheel that surprised with its balance and comfort, the Max 50 feels more deliberate. It's built around full hub-bonded spoke integration and measurable efficiency gains when paired with the updated CADEX Aero Tire."
"Add in the integrated Super Aero carbon spokes bonded into thin aero hub flanges, and you get reduced center-wheel turbulence along with a claimed 2.18-watt aero gain when paired with the Aero 28 tire."
The CADEX Max 50 WheelSystem represents a technical refinement of the Ultra 50, maintaining the 50mm depth and hookless carbon rim design while introducing significant performance improvements. The Max 50 achieves 5.4% better transmission stiffness and 14.3% improved rear transmission stiffness-to-weight compared to its predecessor. Key enhancements include full hub-bonded spoke integration with Super Aero carbon spokes, reduced center-wheel turbulence, and a claimed 2.18-watt aerodynamic advantage when paired with the matching CADEX Aero 28 tire. The rear wheel delivers tighter, more direct response during sprinting and acceleration, while maintaining the versatility and comfort characteristics that distinguished the original Ultra 50.
