SKU code: ECH-SC2024572
In Stock
Scope's fastest spoked wheelset for the clock. The Artech 8.T pairs 85mm deep rims with a 1464g set weight and strong cross-wind stability, and Scope rates it the fastest and lightest aero wheelset available for time trials and triathlons.
Highlights
- 85mm aero rims at a 1464g set weight
- Developed for time trials and triathlon
- Outstanding cross-wind stability, per Scope
- 23mm internal hooked, tubeless-ready bed optimised for 28mm tyres
- Scalmalloy 3D-printed Artech hubs with titanium Diamond Ratchet SL engagement
- Carbonlite Aerospokes: 18 front, 24 rear
What the .T means
The .T suffix marks Scope's triathlon and time trial model. The 85mm rim is the deepest in the Artech spoked range, and the 23mm internal hooked bed is shaped around 28mm clincher and tubeless tyres for a balance of aerodynamics, rolling resistance and comfort.
Chosen by Ironman and World Tour riders
Scope says its Artech triathlon and time trial wheels are used by three-time Ironman champion Patrick Lange and UCI World Tour teams, which have tested them with their own wind tunnel and field protocols.
Artech rim technology
Scope shapes the Artech rim with its Algorithm Enhanced Aerodynamics (AEA) process, which calculates the most aerodynamic profile for the rim. A textured Aeroscales surface creates velocity streaks across the rim that stabilise the airflow and reduce drag, and Scope's Local Reinforcement lay-up adds carbon layers only around the spoke holes, saving weight without giving up strength or stiffness.
3D-printed hubs and Diamond Ratchet SL
The Artech hub shell is a bone-like structure produced through topology optimisation and 3D printed from Scalmalloy. Inside, the Diamond Ratchet SL engagement is made from titanium with a diamond-like carbon coating for direct engagement, improved durability and a significant weight saving. The wheels are laced with Scope's Carbonlite Aerospokes, whose aerodynamic shape cuts drag while their high lateral stiffness sharpens acceleration and climbing.
Compatibility & fit
Built on 12 x 100mm front and 12 x 142mm rear thru-axle hubs for disc brake frames and forks with Centre Lock disc brake rotors (rotors not included). Choose the freehub body that matches your cassette. Scope optimises the hooked, tubeless-ready rim for 28mm tyres and states it works with clincher and tubeless tyres. Wheel set-up, tyre fitting and cassette installation are separate Tune Cycles workshop services and are not included.
