Pair of Campagnolo Shamal Carbon C23 2025 Wheels

The “Shamal” project has always represented Campagnolo’s challenge towards the future. Born in 1992, it was the first complete wheel to introduce the concept of a high profile, an absolutely revolutionary aerodynamic design for the time and immediately successful.
The innovative element lies in the wheel design called Dual Profile. A different modular profile perfected in the wind tunnel and with road tests that - combined with hubs with differentiated flange - allows the use of shorter spokes, greatly enhancing overall stiffness, without the cyclist sacrificing comfort while pedaling.
As in previous models, the new Shamal - Dual Profile also uses a fiber with C-LUX finish, a solution that, translated on the road, allows optimal handling in all conditions, even with wide tires, enabling its use also in gravel.
The soul of the new Campagnolo Shamal is also evident from the 2 Way Fit system, which allows the cyclist to choose between the classic tire and inner tube or the tubeless solution, the latter enabled by the upper bridge without holes, thus avoiding the need for sealing tape.
The spokes are arranged with the G3 lacing geometry, an iconic signature of Campagnolo production, a patented system that ensures the cyclist perfect tension balance and the best stiffness for transferring the power generated by the pedals.
The smoothness of the new Campagnolo Shamal is entrusted to aluminum hubs with cone-cup system, which allows easy maintenance of the bearings. Compared to the previous model, the new materials used allow a weight saving of over 100 grams, reaching a weight of 1,480 grams.

Features

THE BEST HANDLING IN ALL CONDITIONS: The new Dual Profile carbon rim with unidirectional finish is designed to improve bike handling at all speeds, offering comfort and control in all conditions. The C23 rim is perfect for pairing with 28+ mm tires, making this wheel a complete Road/All-rounder.
REACTIVITY: A new monolithic hub design combined with the iconic G3 geometry to achieve perfectly balanced tensions, increasing stiffness and improving energy transfer.
BUILT TO LAST: Durability and easy maintenance.

Technologies

G3 SPOKE GEOMETRY
The iconic Campagnolo G3 geometry challenges the conventional spoke configuration of road bike wheels. Groups of three straight-head parallel spokes are arranged in a 2:1 ratio.

N3W
N3W, acronym for NEXT 3 WAYS, is a patented freehub body standard engineered to accommodate 11, 12, and 13-speed cassettes starting at 9, 10, and 11 teeth, while maintaining compatibility with older 9 and 10-speed cassettes.

MOMAG
A magnet and a lot of ingenuity. This is how the patented “Mounting Magnete” system, or MoMag™, was born.

2-WAY FIT™
2-WAY FIT™ is the innovative profile that allows mounting both a tubeless tire and a classic tubular tire.

C-LUX FINISH
Fast wheels must have aesthetics and functionality to match. Campagnolo carbon fiber rims boast the stunning Campagnolo Luxury mirror finish.
