2026 HED Ardennes Ra Black (Rim Brake)
The Ardennes RA Black is the benchmark for rim brake performance. Lightweight, responsive, and engineered with Turbine Braking Technology. Handbuilt in Minnesota, this wheelset is made for riders who demand control, fast handling, and a smooth, ride.
Elite Braking. Exceptional Ride Quality.
Unlike standard alloy rims or carbon clinchers, the Ardennes RA Black features a fully textured, all-black braking surface that drastically shortens stopping distance.
Wide Rim Performance
With a 21mm internal and 25mm external width, it supports modern road tire profiles for reduced rolling resistance, better cornering grip, and greater ride comfort. Tubeless-compatible and built for speed, this is everything a rim brake wheel should be and more.
