Syncros Capital SL Aero wheels made me faster, on fewer watts

Syncros Capital SL Aero wheels.

The Syncros Capital SL Aero wheels, with their curious carbon monocoque design, are at the cutting edge of road bike wheel development, a superlight solution for riders prepared to invest heavily in their quest for speed. 

They’re a distant descendant of Syncros’s Silverton mtb wheels, the Scott-owned brand’s first one-piece carbon-fibre wheelset launched back in 2018. Those off-road hoops were ridden to victory by Tom Pidcock at the Tokyo Olympics, and carried Nino Schurter to multiple World Cup victories, so the Capitals come with a fine pedigree.
