Introducing the Campagnolo Super Record 13 Platform
Miche Rolls Out the High-Performance Graff Aero 48. Race-Ready. Gravel-Proven
Miche expands its high-performance lineup with the new Graff Aero 48: carbon wheels engineered for top-level gravel racing.
The result of a rigorous, detail-focused development process, the Graff Aero 48 were created in close collaboration with some of the best gravel specialists. Among them, Traka and Unbound winner Ivar Slik played an active role, bringing real-world racing experience into the project. It was at Unbound 2025 that the Graff Aero 48 made its competitive debut.
The outcome? A wheelset that pushes the boundaries of performance, reliability, and control, across all types of terrain.
The next generation racing wheels for gravel bikes
Every aspect is designed for riders with a racing mindset: athletes for whom every second, every turn, every watt counts.
The UD carbon rim features a 48mm depth and a 27mm internal width with a TSS hookless profile, made specifically for tubeless-ready tires ranging from 35mm to 60mm. The optimized rim shape, paired with double-butted aero spokes, delivers superior aerodynamic efficiency and ride stability, even at high speeds and on rough terrain.
CX-Graff hubs are equipped with Miche’s premium bearings, ensuring exceptional smoothness and lasting durability. The 24-spoke lacing pattern (12+12) is engineered to optimize tension distribution and load absorption, tailored to the needs of competitive gravel racing.
With a total weight of just 1,525 grams, the new Graff Aero 48 have been tested under the harshest race conditions and are ready to become a benchmark for elite gravel performance.

The Chris King Titanium 1 1/8 NoThreadSet is Back in Limited Production
Chris King Precision Components has released a limited run of its legendary NoThreadSet
in titanium, built for riders on bikes still rolling strong with 1-1/8” headtubes. It features a matte finish and matching titanium bolt, a refined, high-end take on a legendary design.
“As a company that prides itself on making things that last, we have a cohort of riders with bikes they’ve been riding for decades,” said King Design Manager Jay Sycip. “And so, we’ve continued to make our NoThreadset for them, and now, just to show them how much we love them, we’ve added a titanium version.”
“Originally introduced in 1992, the NoThreadSet quickly became a benchmark for quality and reliability. It has been ridden to victory by World Champions and Grand Tour winners, and it continues to be a favorite among riders and framebuilders who value timeless performance and clean aesthetics.”
“Despite the onward march of technologies and new standards, the NoThreadset remains one of our biggest sellers, and we made it in titanium for a long time,” SyCip continued. “So, we also feel a massive responsibility to the hundreds of thousands of great bikes out there that are still rolling and still giving people joy.”
“Like all King’s headsets, the titanium NoThreadSets feature King’s patented GripLock bearing cap. The GripLock preloads the headset independently of clamping onto the steerer, so it retains preload far better than the competition and is impervious to the ill effects of load spikes from large hits and heavy braking. This means smoother steering, fewer adjustments, no creaking, and a longer lasting headset. GripLock also takes the guesswork out of preloading a headset, because the bearing preload force is independent of the clamping force. Every Chris King headset is built with their own heat-treated bearings, and surgical-grade steel races machined simultaneously to ensure they are perfectly matched.”
- Chris King’s Titanium NoThreadSets
are available for a limited time via the King website. - Limited quantity available.
