The HED H3 is HED's first three spoke aero wheel. Its aerodynamic efficiency is similar to the Deep, but the great advantage of the H3 is that its handling properties are closer in nature to the CX. This makes the wheel suitable for a wide variety of applications, including road race, time trial and triathlon. The H3 is handmade from carbon fiber. The design mates three directional aerofoil blades with a 55mm deep carbon section, which are bonded onto an extruded aluminum rim. This configuration provides exceptional rigidity, which means the H3 is the stiffest wheel in the entire HED range. Yet its weight has been pared down to a minimum.

The distinctive three-spoke configuration of the H3 has given it more Tour de France top 10 TT finishes than any other wheel in the last 10 years, with or without stickers. It is the most aero production front wheel available. As a rear, the outstanding stiffness of the the wheel provides optimum power transfer. Little wonder it’s such a common sight in prol level races. The H3 is the most aero spoked wheel that we make. Rim construction is identical to the Alps. Using RTM construction, the spokes, rim, and hub are co-molded in one operation. Because there are no secondary bonding processes, the H3s are supremely strong. The rim weight is light – 460g, the three spokes only weigh 170g, so the wheels climb and accelerate very well.

Available in clincher or tubular, 650 or 700. Shimano cassette only, or track configuration only. Hubs are wheel-specific, two sealed bearings on the front wheel, one sealed cartridge on the rear non-drive side and ¼” loose ball-bearings on the drive side. Decals are white.

• weight 650c 920g rear (clincher +30g)
