Description:
01 / TRIATHLON INTENT
For the athlete who chooses each wheel separately
Some race bikes are optimized as a complete package rather than a traditional paired wheelset. Artech 8.T Front exists for exactly that purchasing decision: match a deep aerodynamic front rim to a compatible rear disc or other rear wheel while retaining the premium construction Scope uses across the Artech 8.T platform. This is one front wheel only, not an entire wheelset.
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.
THE SCOPE RANGE / THREE DISTINCT APPROACHES

Fit & function / Important decisions
Know what you're buying.
No rear wheel or cassette body is included. Confirm 12 × 100 mm front axle and Centerlock brake fit.
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 Front Wheel
Is the Artech 8.T front wheel supplied with a cassette body?
No. This is a single front wheel. Cassette/freehub selection applies to the rear wheel, not to this front-only product.
What is included in the Scope Artech 8.T Front Wheel listing?
One front wheel only (rear not included). Tires, cassettes, rotors and accessories are included only if specifically listed in the Scope package details.
What does the Scope Artech 8.T Front Wheel weigh?
Scope publishes 690 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 Front Wheel?
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. There is no rear cassette or freehub on this front wheel.
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.
