Evolution. Revolution.
Scope Cycling introduces its innovative range of high-performance carbon wheels, known as Artech, designed to revolutionize the cycling industry with advanced aerodynamics and weight optimization.
The company emphasizes a creative approach to technology development, pioneering new techniques that challenge traditional cycling norms. With a diverse product line, Scope Cycling aims to deliver the best performance wheels suitable for various cycling enthusiasts.
ALGORITHM ENHANCED AERODYNAMICS
The Artech rims' shape is shaped by Algorithm Aerodynamics (AEA) technology, ensuring optimal aerodynamic performance. Initially developed in2017 with the University of Technology Delft, the 2D AEA algorithm considered rim and tire interaction. Scope advanced this by creating a D algorithm that incorporates the entire bike and its components for superior aerodynamics.
SURFACE STRUCTURE AERODYNAMICS
Scope studied surface structures after defining optimal rim, discovering that fish scales reduce aerodynamic drag, a concept inspired by nature and tested in aerospace. Fish scales streamline movement in water, while smooth rim surfaces can cause unstable laminar airflow, known as the Tollmien–Schlichting wave. The patent-pending Aeroscales create varying velocity streaks over the rim surface, stabilizing airflow and reducing drag.
LIGHTWEIGHT 3D PRINTED
Topology optimization is a mathematical algorithm that shapes the hub shell to be lightweight while maintaining strength, often resulting in a bone-like structure inspired by nature This process is enhanced by 3D printing technology, leading to extremely strong and lightweight designs. Artech hub shells are 3D printed in Germany Scalmalloy, a high-performance alloy used in industries like and Formula One.
Artech 2
Weighing in at just 965 grams, the Artech 2 is the lightest wheelset on the market, making it the perfect option for steep mountain climbs and uphill racing. Its lightweight design paired with high lateral stiffness ensures you maintain your lead on every ascent. In addition to its minimal, the Artech 2 boasts impressive lateral stiffness without durability. Featuring a 23 mm internal width hooked tire bed, it is aerodynamically optimized for 28mm clincher and tubeless tires, striking the ideal balance between rolling resistance and comfort.
