ERE Research Omnia CLR45

£999 Classy road-and-beyond carbon wheels

- Robin Wilmott

OMNIA IS SWISS-ROOTED BRAND Ere's all-rounder line, designed for endurance riders, and includes the CLR 45 wheelset, road tyres and bar tape.

The unidirectional carbon rims are 45mm tall, 28mm wide externally, and 21mm internally, giving a modern aerodynamic rim shape. The website says recommended roadtyre width is 25mm-32mm, but that you can also fit them with gravel tyres up to 57mm for heading off road. We weighed the front wheel (including tubeless tape and hub end caps) at 741g, the rear at 881g, making a total of 1,622g.
