We just got our hands on a set of SRAM’s new Roam 60 Carbon wheels; the brand’s first foray into not only a much wider rim, but also a hookless profile as well. At the hub the wheels incorporate some of the already successful technology that SRAM have utilized before, but the rim is where the bulk of the advancements lie…
