BEYOND THE NUMBERS

What the differences mean.

General context for the specifications where these two differ. Numbers in superscript link to the sources below each topic. How much each point matters depends on your riding, tyres and bike.

Weight: what the grams mean

The 4AM Limitless Ti_UD is 56 g lighter per pair (1,156 g vs 1,212 g, manufacturer claims).

4AM Limitless Ti_UD1,156 g

5AM Limitless Ti_UD1,212 g

On a steady climb only total weight counts: a gram in the wheels costs the same as a gram in the frame or a bottle.¹ A common rule of thumb is about 2 seconds per 100 metres of climbing for every kilogram, so 150 g works out at roughly 3 seconds on a 1,000 m climb.²

Rim weight matters somewhat more when you accelerate, because the rim spins as well as moves forward; physically that effect is at most about twice that of frame weight, and only while speeding up.¹ Claimed weights are measured differently from brand to brand: some include rim tape and valves, others do not, and tolerances of around ±30 g are common.³ Independent weighing usually lands close to the claim once tape and valves are accounted for.⁴

Rim depth: aerodynamics, weight and crosswinds

Rim depth: 49.5 mm front / 47 mm rear on the 4AM Limitless Ti_UD, 58 mm front / 55 mm rear on the 5AM Limitless Ti_UD.

Cross-sections drawn to scale from the catalogue values for outer width, internal width and depth; hooked rims show the bead hook. Simplified shape, not the manufacturer's exact profile.

Deeper rims generally reduce aerodynamic drag, which pays off most at higher speeds on flat or rolling roads, but they tend to weigh more and can be more affected by gusty crosswinds. In a BikeRadar comparison, 60 mm aero wheels were about a second per kilometre faster on the flat but slower on steep climbs than a considerably lighter set.¹

How a wheel behaves in crosswinds depends on the rim shape as well as its depth,³ which is why TOUR measures steering torque in the wind tunnel, not just drag.² Shallower rims are generally easier to handle in gusts, something lighter riders and riders on exposed roads tend to notice first.¹

Different rim depths front and rear

The 4AM Limitless Ti_UD (49.5 mm front / 47 mm rear) and the 5AM Limitless Ti_UD (58 mm front / 55 mm rear) use different rim depths front and rear.

Some wheelsets use a different rim depth front and rear, and brands disagree on the direction. Roval's Rapide CLX II paired a shallower front with a deeper rear to favour stability.¹ The newer Rapide III uses a slightly deeper front than rear, and Roval argues most of the aero benefit comes from the front wheel.² Zipp's 454 NSW rim itself varies in depth along its circumference.³

Treat a split depth as a design choice of the brand rather than an advantage in itself. If crosswinds concern you, the front rim depth is the figure to look at.

Warranty and crash replacement

Warranty: 3 years on the 4AM Limitless Ti_UD, 4 years on the 5AM Limitless Ti_UD; crash replacement is offered for both.

4AM Limitless Ti_UD3 years · crash replacement yes

5AM Limitless Ti_UD4 years · crash replacement yes

A warranty covers manufacturing defects; damage from a crash or impact is usually excluded.⁴ Crash replacement programmes cover that case, either free of charge or as a discount on a replacement. Hunt's H_Care is one example;² Roval repairs or replaces crash damage free for two years on US purchases and at a discount of 20–35 % elsewhere, for up to five years.³ Some brands, Zipp among them, also include riding damage in their lifetime warranty.¹

Terms differ widely: many programmes apply only to the original owner, need registration within a deadline and proof of purchase, may charge shipping or fees, and depend on the region you bought in.²³ Check the current conditions on the manufacturer's page before relying on them.
