Specialized
Take to the open road with the lightest, most durable, best-handling alloy wheel Roval has ever made - the Alpinist SLX. This is the pinnacle of alloy - a wheel so good it earned the Alpinist name.
There’s no room for excess weight whether you’re chasing summits or looking for ride quality. For the climbers, the wheels are stiff enough for high-powered efforts and feature confident handling. The newly engineered shot peen treatment increases fatigue life and with proven DT Swiss 350 hubs and Sapim spokes, the overall weight has been reduced by 30 grams. Because every gram counts.
LIGHTWEIGHT X RIDE QUALITY: As the first-ever alloy product to earn the Alpinist name, the Roval Alpinist SLX wheels weigh in at 1,485 grams* thanks to premium alloy and a thoughtful build. Confirming what we’ve all felt: lightweight wheels feel better to ride.
*1;485 grams production sample weight. Final weights may vary slightly.
TUBELESS COMPATIBLE: There’s no room for excess weight whether you’re chasing summits or looking for ride quality. A Shallow rim depth amplified by tubeless compatibility means you’ll get sublime ride quality with the added efficiency, comfort, and flat protection of tubeless tires.
RELIABLE PERFORMANCE: Featuring confident handling for high-powered efforts, the newly engineered shot peen treatment increases fatigue life, while the proven DT Swiss 350 hubs and Sapim spokes enhance overall durability and performance.

I used to have an Edge 540 Solar which was not touch, and it was truly a pain to use. It felt like it was designed to be touch, then last minute added as a non-touch option. But I did like the data screen and the size. The solar charging was minimal, so when my Edge 540 was stolen I opted for the touch version without solar and I couldn't be happier! It has a good battery life, touch works so much better than the button versions, and the lack of a solar frame helps in certain light conditions as the solar frame would provide some glare once in a while. Highly recommend!
Sierra Bicycle Supply responded to my complaint in less than 2 hours and issued a refund for the defective tube.
This indicates to me that they are a good customer-oriented organization.
ORIGINAL COMPLAINT:
Both tires and tubes were well packaged and arrived safely. (All Condition Armadillo 700X25 and Standard Presta Valve tube 700X20-28C) I installed them and pumped them up with no problem. The next time I went to ride, the rear tube valve had a substantial leak. Loosening the nut and pressing the release pin resulted in a loud air leak that does not stop when I release the pin. The loud leak appears to stop when the nut is firmly tightened. I don't trust this arrangement.
I’ve had several cruxes, including an S works crux and for the money this is quite the value. I did a gravel race and cyclocross Race on my new DSW crux after cracking my S works frame in a Bike Crash. I was really impressed. Sure it’s about a pound heavier, but it has 90% of the performance. Great price point and probably more robust for CX.
