DUKE RIM BACCARA WRX AERO 42 SLR2
The Racer
The Baccara WRX 42 rim is a high-performance carbon rim designed to maximise aerodynamics and speed. Ideal for competitions, it is aimed at cyclists looking for both performance and versatility.
External width: 43 mm,
a key dimension for ensuring a smooth transition between the rim and tyre sidewalls, reducing aerodynamic turbulence. Its extra-wide "anti-pinch" flanges minimise the risk of punctures caused by pinching.
- Internal width: 28 mm, optimising the installation of wide tyres for a perfect balance between performance and comfort.
- Rim height: 42 mm, offering an aerodynamic profile while ensuring sufficient inertia to maintain the speed gained on flat terrain.
Recommended tyre widths are xx to xx, (tyre type or other).
Our advice
For an optimum compromise between lightness, aerodynamics and sensitivity to crosswinds, we recommend a mixed set-up with a WRX Aero 42 or WRX 42 at the front and a WRX 48 at the rear.
DUKE owns its manufacturing tools.

Crash replacement
We offer a crash replacement programme for carbon wheels. In case of accidents or heavy falls, violent shocks can damage your rim and make it impossible to use. With our Crash Replacement offer we offer you a service that allows you to replace your rim under special conditions: You get a 50 percent discount on the price of the rim (UD SLS carbon) 40 percent (3k Carbon), as well as the parts and the disassembly/reassembly. This offer is valid (for life) for an unlimited period of time for DUKE carbon rims and is transferable in the event of sale of the wheels to a third party.
