The Vega 650 A22 R is a tough rim. Their 650 diameter allows them to accept tyres up to 47cm in diameter at lower tyre pressures, for unbeatable comfort. Featuring flanged hubs for their reliability and performance associated with cassette bodies with a minimum engagement angle for optimal response and power transfer. The double butted 2/1.5 stainless steel spokes combine performance, comfort, and reliability, while the 6066 T6 alloy with WEL junction is a feature that ensures a watertight seal even in tubeless mode and increases rim strength and stiffness. Their low 22mm profile coupled with trickle-down technology from our top-of-the-range models contribute to their response even in the toughest conditions. The Vega 650 A22 R is the perfect choice of gravel wheelset for the sensation-seeking cyclist.

Build and customise your wheelset
Our configurator gives you the possibility to define yourself the equipment and the decals of your wheels, at no extra cost.
It's very simple: change the decals, the cassette body and the tyres as you wish. With each change, the photo, the technical sheet, the weight and the price are automatically updated.
Technological benefits
Welded alloy rims.
A quality weld is the signature of a top of the range alloy rim offering performance and reliability. Another operation in the build process for a watertight rim in a tubeless mount adding stiffness and strength.
CNC-machined hubs
We have coupled the rims with CNC machined hubs that we have designed with flanges to guarantee the best performance/price ratio. We equipped our hubs with a cassette body with a minimum engagement angle to favour active response.
For the spokes we chose double butted 2/1.5 spokes for the R series. Stainless steel is more responsive, comfortable, and reliable than rigid alloy spokes.
And finally, we decided to use only high-precision bearings fitted in a controlled environment to reduce to a minimum the amount of torque required to begin cycling and to prevent friction.
Hand-built in our own factory in the north of France to our exacting standards
We attach particular importance to know-how. For us the only way to ensure the perfect assembly of our Vega 650 A22 R rims was to do it ourselves in our own factory in the north of France.
To that end, we hired technicians with tensionmeters at the end of their fingers to obtain the perfect spoke tension.
Spoke lacing is a crucial stage and when done properly it represents a considerable advantage to rim performance.
