Description:
01 / TRIATHLON INTENT
A deliberate choice for a solo race effort
When there is no peloton to shelter behind, the wheel and tire system matters throughout a long time-trial or triathlon leg. Artech 8.T adopts a deep 85 mm carbon profile to pursue aerodynamic performance, yet preserves the advanced Artech elements that distinguish it from a conventional deep-section wheelset. It is purpose-built for athletes making a conscious aerodynamic decision rather than simply buying the deepest available rim.
03 / ENGINEERING EDITION
The engineering behind Artech.
The following systems are part of the Artech wheel engineering described by Scope. Product-specific hardware, fit and limits are detailed in the technical reference below.
AEROSCALES
Scope’s textured rim surface is designed to influence the air flowing around the rotating wheel; one part of its larger rim-aerodynamics program.
CARBONLITE AEROSPOKES
Scope develops its lightweight carbon aero-spoke system to combine low mass and lateral rigidity with an aerodynamic spoke form.
3D-PRINTED HUBS
Topology-optimized metallic hub structures are part of Artech’s identity, complementing the rim and spoke architecture.
36T DIAMOND RATCHET
Scope specifies 36-tooth Diamond Ratchet engagement in the rear hub of this complete wheelset. Match cassette and freehub selections to your drivetrain.
THE SCOPE RANGE / THREE DISTINCT APPROACHES
Find your place in the Scope family.
Sport, Race and Artech share Scope's focus on carbon wheel performance. The difference is in the construction, technology and application; always compare the exact models and compatibility before choosing.
SPORT

Fit & function / Important decisions
Know what you're buying.
This listing is for a front and rear wheel. Select the correct cassette/freehub configuration above.
Scope identifies a hooked tubeless-ready tire bed; check the specific tire manufacturer’s rim-width approvals.
Confirm axle interface, tire clearance and the selected variant before ordering.
Configuration / Exactly the right version
Select the correct factory build.
The variant selector determines which Scope manufacturer SKU and barcode you order. Choose options appropriate to your bike; if a variant is unavailable, contact Brimstone before substituting another freehub or braking configuration.

Scope wheelset / Compatibility answers
Frequently asked questions about Scope Artech 8.T
Does Artech 8.T include both wheels?
Yes. Artech 8.T Set is the complete 85 mm front-and-rear wheelset. The separately listed Artech 8.T Front is a single front wheel for a custom TT or triathlon pairing.
What is included in the Scope Artech 8.T listing?
Complete front-and-rear wheelset. Tires, cassettes, rotors and accessories are included only if specifically listed in the Scope package details.
What does the Scope Artech 8.T weigh?
Scope publishes 1,464 g as its wheel weight. It is not a shipping-package weight, and actual manufactured weights can vary.
Which tire should I use with the Scope Artech 8.T?
Scope identifies a 23 mm internal rim and 28 mm optimum tire width. The tire manufacturer must approve the tire on this particular rim width and bead system, and the frame must provide adequate clearance.
Will it fit my bike?
Check the axle standard, brake interface, tire clearance, and any rear cassette/freehub compatibility. A wheel-model name is not enough to establish drivetrain compatibility.
Can Brimstone help confirm compatibility?
Yes. Brimstone Bicycles can help you check rim/tire approval, axle type and—when applicable—the correct freehub body before you order.
What is the CeramicSpeed upgrade?
The manufacturer offers a CeramicSpeed bearing configuration on eligible Artech variants. It is a bearing option, not a published 80 g weight reduction; compare the selected manufacturer SKUs.
What’s supplied / Warranty guidance
