High Performance Aero Road Wheels: The Enhance 50:52 from Polymer Workshop

Upgrading to high-performance aero road wheels is one of the most impactful ways to improve speed, efficiency, and overall ride quality. At Polymer Workshop, we developed the Enhance 50:52 wheelset to meet the demands of cyclists who need both aerodynamic performance and real-world versatility, without compromise.

Aerodynamics Meets Versatility

The Enhance 50:52 features a carefully chosen dual-depth profile:

  • 50mm deep front rim: Reduces drag while ensuring predictable handling, even in crosswinds.
  • 52mm deep rear rim: Maximizes aerodynamic efficiency where it matters most, on flats and descents.

This slight difference in depth creates a harmonious balance between speed, control, and comfort, making the wheelset ideal for everything from rolling terrain to fast group rides and road races.

Hookless Design for Modern Tires

The Enhance 50:52 uses a hookless rim profile, specifically designed for wider, tubeless tires. This allows for lower pressures, better grip, and improved rolling resistance, delivering both comfort and performance gains on today's road surfaces.

  • Internal rim width: 23mm
  • Optimized for 28mm+ tires

The hookless construction also reduces weight without compromising strength, keeping the wheelset light and responsive.

Lightweight Without Sacrificing Strength

At just 1488 grams (SRAM XDR), the Enhance 50:52 stays competitive on climbs while maintaining the stiffness needed for powerful accelerations. Whether you're chasing breakaways, pushing on fast terrain, or climbing short hills, this wheelset provides the performance edge you need.

Why the Enhance 50:52 Stands Out:

  • Aerodynamic performance for real-world conditions
  • Wide internal rim width for modern tire compatibility
  • Hookless tubeless design for comfort and speed
  • Balanced handling with a dual-depth profile
  • Lightweight carbon layup

The Bottom Line: Your Next Aero Upgrade

If you're looking for high-performance aero road wheels that combine speed, control, and all-day rideability, the Enhance 50:52 is the clear choice. Designed for modern road cycling, it brings cutting-edge aerodynamics together with practical versatility, perfect for riders who want to go faster without limitations.
