Hyperon – The Magic Ratio of Performance
Inspired by the super-light and high-performance Ultra top model, the Hyperon skillfully combines the best engineering and all the know-how of Campagnolo in a carbon wheelset for the modern, demanding road cyclist. Like the precursor, the renewed mix of technical features and technological content relies on the advanced H.U.L.C. (Handmade Ultra-Light Carbon) compression molding technology for the rims, which ensures an optimal ratio between carbon fiber and resin – for exceptional stiffness, control and durability.
In addition, the Hyperon wheels benefit from Campagnolo's Single-Joint construction, which reduces potential weak points with the help of a single fuse-point, and from the asymmetric profile of the rear rim, which guarantees maximum safety and agility. The Campagnolo motto "Dream Bigger" represents ingenuity and the desire to stand out from the barren crowd. And to sufficiently meet this, nothing is more suitable than the Campagnolo Luxury finish C-LUX. Not only is the mirrored surface eye-catching, but by eliminating the need for a paint finish, it also provides lighter weight and improved sealing when using Tubeless tires.

2-Way Fit | An innovative rim profile on which both Tubeless tires and classic clincher tires can be mounted. With 2-Way Fit, everyone can try out for themselves which of the two solutions suits him more. It is also possible to mount clincher tires for daily training and use the Tubeless solution for competition day. The Tubeless tire is undoubtedly the tire of the future for road cycling. In addition to greater comfort, better rolling characteristics due to the complete elimination of friction between the tire and tube represent another advantage of Tubeless tires. In addition, these are safe from abrupt loss of air. And should there be a puncture, the 2-Way Fit system allows by simply removing the sealing valve, the installation of a normal tube for a smooth ride home.
H.U.L.C. | In the development of the unique H.U.L.C. rim molding process (Handmade Ultra-Light Carbon) Campagnolo has successfully incorporated its 25 years of experience in the manufacture of carbon. H.U.L.C. technology allows optimization of the profiles, the amount of carbon fibers and the resin used, contributing to greater stiffness and resistance.
C-LUX Finish | An evolution of the already premium finish of Campagnolo carbon rims. The glossy, mirror surface is not only high quality, but also so flawlessly smooth that it requires no paint, saving weight. In addition, C-LUX technology ensures an extremely secure fit of Tubeless tires by increasing pressure sealing, making mounting easier and reducing the risk of abrasion on the rim bead.
Asymmetric Rim Profile | Ultimate control and handling in every corner. The asymmetric profile of the rear rim provides maximum stiffness and optimal stress management.
Rim Dynamic Balance | The concept is as simple as it is ingenious: the mass of the rim joint is compensated by an equivalent mass on the exact opposite side. For carbon models, a special process is used to align the material so that the rim is always balanced.
Single-Joint Construction | Campagnolo uses a special lamination process for the construction of carbon wheels, which aims to obtain a rim with a single point of connection of the fiber: a light and resistant carbon monolith. The result is a nimble, robust and extremely stiff wheel that can respond instantly to any terrain by transferring power and pedaling performance directly to the ground.
The wheels are assembled entirely by hand by a Campagnolo specialist and 100 % checked using instruments with electronic control. This process ensures maximum performance and reliability of all Campagnolo brand wheels.
