For the lovers of deep-V wheels and late-90s/early-2000s road bike style. A great low mileage clean set of Rolf Vector Comp 700c clinchers with the anodized red rims and original golden-yellow Rolf decals. The paired bladed spoke design and deep aero rim give them that unmistakable Rolf look that was everywhere on fast road bikes around the turn of the century.
The red and golden-yellow combination is especially fun on the right bike. There were a number of period bikes with similar colors, including Cannondale Optima models, some Specialized bikes and Bianchis, and they also look great with any candy-red, burgundy or golden-yellow frames. Put these on the right vintage or retro-modern build and they become part of the bike's personality rather than just another set of wheels. Also a fun way to add some color to a more modern steel or aluminum retro-inspired bike.
Vector Comp wheels used Rolf's paired-spoke design, with 18 bladed spokes on the front and 20 on the rear. They were designed as a relatively aerodynamic, low-spoke-count road wheelset while retaining a conventional clincher setup.
