Blackbird² Carbon Disc Wheel – Approx. 900 g

A carbon disc wheel for speed-focused riding

The Blackbird² is a full carbon disc wheel with a claimed weight of approximately 900 g.

A disc wheel is a highly specialised choice, primarily intended for disciplines where aerodynamic efficiency plays a central role. The Blackbird² is therefore positioned towards riders building a dedicated setup for time trial and triathlon use.

Full carbon disc construction

Unlike a conventional spoked rear wheel, the Blackbird² uses a lenticular disc design. Its continuous carbon structure gives the wheel the characteristic profile associated with dedicated aerodynamic setups.

This makes the Blackbird² a specific equipment choice rather than a general-purpose road wheel. It is intended for riders whose priorities and courses justify the use of a rear disc wheel.

Approximately 900 g

The Blackbird² has a stated weight of approximately 900 g.

For a component as specialised as a disc wheel, weight is only one part of the selection process. Compatibility with the bike, drivetrain, braking system and intended competition format must also be checked before ordering.

For triathlon and time trial setups

The Blackbird² is particularly relevant for riders looking to complete an aerodynamic wheel configuration for triathlon or time trial riding.

A disc rear wheel can be paired with an appropriate front wheel according to the rider's requirements, bike configuration and intended use.

Because disc wheels are specialised equipment, riders should also consider the conditions and regulations applicable to their events before choosing this type of wheel.

Check your bike compatibility

Several essential compatibility specifications are not currently detailed on the product page.

Before ordering the Blackbird², contact SH Race to confirm the braking system, axle standard, freehub body and tyre compatibility required for your bike.

This is especially important for a dedicated competition wheel, where drivetrain and frame compatibility need to be established before installation.

Complete your aerodynamic wheel setup

The Blackbird² is intended as the rear element of a performance-oriented wheel configuration. SH Race can help you check its compatibility with your bike and determine an appropriate front-wheel configuration according to your intended use.

Contact the workshop before ordering if you need advice on integrating the Blackbird² into your triathlon or time trial setup.
