Boyd Cycling 55 Road Disc SL
Sitting at the top of Boyd’s Podium Series, the 55 SL is described as a “masterclass in carbon engineering”, designed for riders who refuse to choose between aerodynamic efficiency and lightweight climbing performance.
“For years we had to choose between our aero wheelsets for flat rides and climbing wheelsets when the road pointed upward.”, said Boyd Johnson, Founder of BOYD Cycling. “ The 55 Road Disc SL gives you the best of both worlds. Use it for your fast rides and races, without any penalty on most demanding mountainous terrain. I only wished I would have had this wheelset back when I was racing, but at least I can still be first to the coffee shop!”

Boyd Cycling Pinnacle Race
The Pinnacle Race is a gravel wheelset engineered to “redefine what’s possible in the rapidly evolving world of gravel racing.” Built without compromise, the Pinnacle Race represents a complete rethinking of gravel performance, where aerodynamics, strength, and weight converge into a single race-optimised system. Gravel racing has changed. Speeds are higher. Courses are rougher. Distances are longer. The demands are greater than ever.
“I got to be the tester of the very first set of Pinnacle Race wheels produced. They carried me to victory in the Pro Field at the Southeast Gravel race. I begged Boyd not to release these because I didn’t want to give up my advantage,” commented Johnny Mitchel, 1st Place, Gravel Battle of Sumter Forest.
The Pinnacle Race was developed specifically for this new era—delivering a level of performance previously unseen in the category:
Technical Specifications
- 55mm deep aero carbon rim — bringing true aerodynamic efficiency to gravel
- 28mm internal width — optimized for modern 45mm+ tyres (40mm minimum tire size)
- T1000 aerospace-grade carbon construction
- 150 joules of impact resistance — comparable to enduro MTB wheels
- 410g rim weight / 1354g complete wheelset 618g (front) | 736g (rear)
- Spokes: Pillar Wing 20 (24 front/24 rear)
- Hubs: Grade 54 hubs
- Construction: Hand-built precision with lifetime warranty
