New Hadron Ultimate 625 - Test Review

Tritime Magazine has been testing the NEW 2018 HADRON Ultimate 625 aero wheels for a few weeks. Read what their editors had to say: https://www.tritime-magazin.de/2018/02/swiss-side-laufraeder-hadron-ultimate-und-classic/

"The first few hundreds kilometers felt already very promising. There is no weakness at all reading the stiffness of the wheels. Despite the cold and wet wether, we did not notice any deficits in braking performance. A more detailed test report will follow shortly.”

Triathlon Magazine Verdict:

The excellent handling of the wheel set and the outstanding aerodynamics make the Swiss Side HADRON Ultimate 625 aero wheel set a great choice for every triathlete! The rear wheel could be slightly stiffer. 

+ Great price/performance ratio

+ Very forgiving, comfortable and fast

+ Light weight 

+ Unbeatable in cross wind stability (most stable wheel set of entire test)

Swiss Side HADRON Ultimate 625 (Procycling Review August 2017)

"The aerodynamic experts at Swiss Side with longterm experience in Formula 1 racing are not only focusing on top aerodynamic performance and maximum sailing effect of their aero wheels, but also ensure steering stability when cross winds hit. 

This was proven during the test out on the roads. While riding the HADRON Ultimate aero wheels you feel the outstanding stability when cross winds hit. The wheels come with ceramic bearings as a standard for a price of EUR 1900/set. The rear wheel could be a little stiffer. This might be a compromise for the top aero performance of the wheels."

Swiss Side Hadron Ultimate 625 wheelset (Oct. - 2016)

Verdict: Very good overall rating. Fast, stable and a great performer. 

The Hadron Ultimate range from deep-section upstart Swiss Side takes a lot that we loved from the Hadron wheels (we've previously tested the 485 and the 625) and pimps it up with full-carbon rim construction and spanky ceramic bearings, as well as adding disc brake versions to the range. They remain a superb-handling deep-section wheel, now with a lower weight and a higher price.
