Disc brakes are all the rage these days and for good reason. They offer great braking in all weather especially mud-laden cyclocross dusty gravel races and cold winter training rides. The LT is the HED Ardennes lightest fastest and fanciest version with Sapim spokes and HED’s 545 J-bend hub. All clincher Ardennes Plus Disc Brake wheels use the same 25mm wide tubeless-compatible rim to bring the most out of your tires.
