American Classic

American Classic are becoming widely recognised as an innovative and cutting edge leader of design when it comes to bicycle wheels. American Classic wheels are used on a wide variety of bikes and can cope with the demands of any type of racing, whether road, track or something a little more rugged like cyclocross. Versatility really is the name of the game with this brand. Whether a rider is seeking a wheel to improve their time trialling or something to provide stability on a mountain trail, American Classic can provide it.

Mountain bikers, for example, are well served by American Classic MTB wheels, many of which are tubeless. These varieties provide extra strength, stiffness and control as well as being exceptionally lightweight. The American Classic 29er wheels are also much in demand, as they offer riders greater acceleration, whether climbing or descending.

American Classic Victory Wheels are a good choice for larger riders, balancing strength, weight and performance as they do. The stability they offer is great value for a mid-priced wheel such as this. American Classic 420 wheels are some of the best all-round wheels currently available on the market. With enough strength for racing or training, they are an especially durable wheel due to their 3-spoke lacing structure.

American Classic provides great resilience and workmanship as a brand. With a reasonable price tag attached, they are some of the most versatile wheels on the market. The company has certainly come a long way from its origins in the founder's father's garage in the 1970s. Their pioneering use of magnesium alloys makes their products durable, reliable and, crucially, fast.
