{"product_id":"metron-rs-60-wheelset","title":"Vision Metron RS 60 Wheelset","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Metron RS 60 was Vision's first full carbon wheelset, and the 60mm depth version is built for road racing where a deep aero rim is an advantage on flat and rolling terrain. It uses a full carbon rim and full carbon spokes together, rather than pairing a carbon rim with alloy or steel spokes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat made the RS series notable when it launched — and still does — is the larger 23mm internal rim diameter compared to Vision's earlier Metron SL wheels, plus the V-1000 hub built with what Vision calls PRS (power ratchet system) technology. The wheel is developed through CFD analysis and wind tunnel testing rather than just carried over from an existing mold, and it's built entirely by hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho It's For\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoad racers who want a deep 60mm aero wheelset from Vision's original full-carbon RS platform\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRiders who prioritize a wider 23mm internal rim width for better tire support over older, narrower carbon wheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot the best fit for climbers or riders who want the newest hub generation — Vision's SC line represents a more recent evolution of similar technology\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat to Look For\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFreehub compatibility: compatible with Shimano and SRAM freehub systems — confirm which is included versus what your drivetrain requires\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBearing count: six sealed ceramic cartridge bearings (2 front, 4 rear) — more bearings on the rear hub reflects the added load it carries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRim depth for terrain: 60mm rewards flat and rolling racing more than sustained climbing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRim:\u003c\/strong\u003e A full carbon rim at 60mm depth with a 23mm inner width was a step up in internal diameter compared to the earlier Metron SL wheels, giving better support to wider tires.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHub:\u003c\/strong\u003e The V-1000 hub uses Vision's PRS (power ratchet system) technology, engineered alongside the wheel rather than adapted from an unrelated hub platform.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBearings:\u003c\/strong\u003e Six sealed ceramic cartridge bearings (2 front, 4 rear) reduce rolling resistance versus a standard steel-bearing hub.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpokes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full carbon aero bladed spokes, laced 2:1 (21 front \/ 24 rear) and secured with ABS self-locking nipples, keep the whole wheel — not just the rim — built from carbon.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRider Intent Summary\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBiggest strengths: full carbon rim and spoke construction with a wider 23mm internal rim width than earlier Metron wheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTradeoffs: as an older platform in the Vision lineup, it doesn't carry the newest hub updates found in the SC series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat makes it different: full carbon spokes paired with a full carbon rim, rather than the more common carbon rim with metal spokes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVictory's Take\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe recommend the Metron RS 60 through Victory Bicycle Studio to racers who want Vision's original full-carbon wheel platform at a 60mm depth and don't need the latest hub generation to be satisfied.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"FSA","offers":[{"title":"Centerlock w\/ Shimano Freehub","offer_id":53552461873459,"sku":"710-0179231050","price":2999.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Centerlock w\/ XDR Freehub","offer_id":53552461906227,"sku":"710-0179236050","price":2999.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0981\/3685\/0739\/files\/media_5db85c6b-8e64-4f3f-9e79-77b9658f3f3b.png?v=1782440773","url":"https:\/\/victorybicyclestudio.com\/products\/metron-rs-60-wheelset","provider":"Victory Bicycle Studio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
