HYPERON DB: The magic ratio of performance. Versions available: Campagnolo N3W™ freewheel body, Shimano HG, Sram XDR™.

Functional wheels dedicated to the best road bikes
Hyperon is directly inspired by the top of the range Hyperon Ultra, wisely capturing the best of Campagnolo technology and know-how to design and blend together a renewed mix of cutting-edge features and technologies.

Reactivity and handling
The Hyperon rims also benefit from Campagnolo’s single-joint construction which reduces potential points of weakness by having a singular fuse-point, while the asymmetric rim profile allows for superior stiffness control and total tension management, guaranteeing maximum safety and handling around every bend.

Lightweight construction
The rims have been molded using state-of-the-art H.U.L.C. technology, ensuring optimal alignment and the ideal ratio of carbon fiber to resin, resulting in exceptional stiffness and durability. Hyperon’s mirror-like C-LUX finish creates a surface so flawlessly smooth that it doesn’t require lacquer, saving weight, whilst also helping to ensure the safest-possible seating of tubeless tires.

Assembly
The HYPERON Disc Brake Wheel is completely hand assembled by a Campagnolo® specialist and is 100% checked using electronic instrumentation.This procedure guarantees the maximum performance and reliability of every single Campagnolo® wheel.

Technologies

2-Way Fit™
Thanks to 2-Way Fit™ technology, if you choose Campagnolo® wheels you can test them out to see which of the two solutions feels better for you, or use clinchers for training and tubeless for racing. Tubeless are without doubt the future of tires for road cycling. Apart from greater comfort, other big advantages include the fact that tubeless tires let you make the most of the greater smoothness due to the absence of friction between tire and inner tube. Plus, a tubeless will not suddenly deflate when punctured, which is definitely a good thing in terms of safety. And finally, tubeless tires do away with any risk of pinch flats, because there is no inner tube. If you get a puncture with a tubeless tire, the Campagnolo® 2-Way Fit™ system lets you simply remove the airtight valve, fit a classic inner tube and continue to pedal: problem solved.

C-Lux Finish
Fast wheels must look the part and be functional as well. Campagnolo rims in carbon fiber sport the stunning mirror-like Campagnolo Luxury finish. The C-LUX finish is obtained by controlling the external thickness of the very resin that makes up the structure of the carbon fiber. In this way, only one material is used for the wheel, making it free from molding defects and so smooth it requires no lacquer, a unique characteristic that saves weight and celebrates the lightness of Campagnolo design. When also applied to the rim bed, like the first time with the Bora Ultra WTO wheels, the scientific precision of the C-LUX finish helps to ensure the safest possible seating of tubeless tires. A design plus that increases their pressure seal, makes for easier installation/assembly, reducing the risk of abrasions to the bead. The eye-catching glints given off by the carbon fiber and their essential lines take Campagnolo wheels to the level of true design icons. The C-LUX finish thus becomes a distinctive element, highlighting the aesthetics of bikes fitted with Campagnolo wheels, enhancing them with new emotions and valuable meaning. The C-LUX is used on Bora Ultra WTO, Bora WTO, Hyperon Ultra, Shamal, Ghibli wheels for racing bikes and on Levante gravel wheels.

H.U.L.C Handmade Uktra-Light Carbon
H.U.L.C. (Handmade Ultra-Light Carbon) is the exclusive Campagnolo technology for the production of carbon rims that optimizes the carbon fiber and resin ratio to increase stiffness and control. This distinctive feature of top-end Campagnolo wheels is an evolution of the exclusive carbon molding process patented by Campagnolo that creates defect-free rims and requires no additional coats of lacquer. Optimization of the carbon fiber and resin ratio guarantees a reduction in weight and unprecedented dimensional accuracy of the safety elements on the 2-Way Fit rim (coupling diameters, hooks and humps). H.U.L.C. technology is applied to Bora Ultra WTO, Hyperon Ultra, Shamal, and Ghibli wheels for racing bikes and to Levante gravel wheels.

Dynamic Balance™
RIM Dynamic Balance™ – aluminum wheels The concept is as simple as it is genius: balancing the weight of the rim joint with a mass of identical weight on the opposite side of the rim. For top-end models this is achieved by intervening on the section of the rim opposite the joint. SPOKES Dynamic Balance™ For entry-level models, the balance is achieved with two oversized spokes in the section opposite the joint. The result is a wheel with perfectly balanced rotational dynamics. RIM Dynamic Balance™ – Carbon wheels For carbon wheels, the principle is the same but the technology differs. The pieces of carbon cloth are aligned using a special procedure that ensures the rim is always balanced.

Single-Joint Construction
For construction of its carbon fiber wheels, Campagnolo uses a special lamination process designed to produce a rim with just one joint in the fiber: a lightweight resistant carbon monolith. This particular technology is totally different to the industry standard four-joint constructions. The resulting rim is extremely stiff and responds immediately to the terrain, transmitting pedal power and efficiency to the ground. A construction excellence introduced with Hyperon Ultra carbon wheels that makes the rim incredibly easy to handle, hardwearing and resistant to damage. A construction excellence used on Bora Ultra WTO, Hyperon Ultra, Shamal, and Ghibli wheels for racing bikes and on Levante gravel wheels.
