This frame is sought after by professionals and amateurs alike based on its solid performance.</p>

<p>When it comes to competitive cycling, you&#8217;ll want to have every possible advantage you can to make sure that your the first rider over the finish line.  Even if you&#8217;re riding the lightest bicycle you&#8217;ll still encounter plenty of wind resistance not just from you yourself, but also from your bike&#8217;s components. Bicycle wheels can create much of the drag based on each spoke adding to your overall wind resistance that means you have to work harder every time you crank your pedals.  <strong>Campagnolo</strong> is intent on helping you beat this wind resistance with a light disc rear wheel.  As this rear wheel is a doubled disc, it has no spokes and the air flows around it smoothly creating less drag that allows you to cut through the wind much easier.  The Ghibli disc wheel features a tubular design that makes it both smooth as well as fast.  To make sure that you get the best benefit from the <strong>Campagnolo Ghibli</strong>, it requires the use of a Ghibli cassette on a Campagnolo 10 speed system to ensure proper functionality.  This rear wheel accommodates a rim braking system and comes with quick release.  Don&#8217;t let wind resistance hold you back on your next bike ride by making sure that your bike is equipped with the <strong>Campagnolo Ghibli Disc Tubular Wheel</strong>.</p>

To compete with other bikers on the road or on the trails, there is an even greater need to have a bike that is lighter and still built to perform.  With the weight of every component contributing to a bike&#8217;s weight even <strong>cranksets</strong> are becoming lighter, so it doesn&#8217;t just stop with lighter <a href="http://www.bikesleuth.com/category/components/wheelsets/">wheels</a> and <a href="http://www.bikesleuth.com/category/components/frames/">frames</a> any more.  <strong>Shimano</strong> designed the <strong>XTR FC-M970</strong> crankset with minimal weight and increased shifting performance and durability due to the <strong>Titanium/Carbon</strong> composite chainring for reduced weight that maintains rigidity.  If you&#8217;re in need of helping your bike lose a little more weight to increase its performance, then you&#8217;ll want to buy this <strong><a href="http://www.shareasale.com/m-pr.cfm?merchantID=9766&amp;userID=211541&amp;productID=458796077" target="_blank">Shimano XTR FC-M970 Crankset</a></strong></p>
