Precision from Tradition: The Alpina Story
With nearly a century of experience, Alpina Raggi combines traditional Italian craftsmanship with modern industrial capability. While high-end materials and carbon fiber spokes continue to evolve, there are still those dedicated to advancing traditional steel spoke design. Alpina approaches product development through close technical collaboration with customers, a tailor-made mindset, and integrated service support. Rather than mass-producing standardized parts, the company prioritizes precision and creativity—where tradition meets innovation, and automation coexists with craftsmanship.
Tailored Engineering: A Diverse Spoke Portfolio
Alpina’s spoke range is meticulously developed to meet the demands of every riding discipline—from elite road racing to heavy-duty e-cargo use. At the heart of Alpina’s product lineup lies the Lite series—engineered for riders who demand the highest performance from every gram. With each step—Basiclite, Extralite, Superlite, Ultralite, and the flagship Hyperlite—weight and diameter are progressively reduced, while structural integrity and fatigue resistance are carefully preserved.
Beyond the default butted version, Flat and Aero (bladed) variants in the Lite series offer more aerodynamic advantages through optimized cross-sections, especially suited for triathlon and road racing. Weighing just 3.3g per spoke, which is 0.3g lighter than Sapim CX-Super, Hyperlite Aero offers exceptional stiffness-to-weight ratio with proven aerodynamic advantages.

| Spark | Straight Pull/ J Bend | 2.3 / 2.0 | 6.9 |
| Spark XL | Straight Pull/ J Bend | 2.6 / 2.3 | 9.4 |
Meanwhile, the Classic line offers durable, cost-effective options for city and trekking use. The One and One XL models also include Aero and Flat versions to improve efficiency without compromising everyday resilience.

Technology Meets Material Excellence
At Alpina, craftsmanship and technical mastery converge to define product excellence. Most of the production equipment is designed and built in-house, enabling full control over precision and consistency. Each spoke is inspected using cutting-edge quality control systems, overseen by a team of highly trained specialists. But technology is only part of the story. The heart of Alpina lies in its people—craftsmen and engineers who merge creativity with precision, ensuring that every product not only meets technical benchmarks but also carries the distinct signature of Alpina’s nearly century-long tradition.
Equally deliberate is technical sophistication, which is inseparable from material integrity. From raw material selection to finished spoke production, every step is executed with exacting care. All incoming metals are sourced primarily from local suppliers and undergo rigorous validation before entering production. The finishes and surface treatments are chosen not only for durability and performance, but also with careful consideration for their environmental and social impact.
Sustainable Manufacturing Philosophy
Sustainability is not an afterthought but an operational pillar at Alpina. The company runs entirely on renewable electricity, minimizing the environmental footprint of its energy-intensive processes. Water, oil, and metal residues are recycled in accordance with strict environmental regulations, and surface finishing processes are selected with care for their ecological and social impact. Alpina’s commitment to responsible production is also reflected in ongoing R&D efforts to adopt materials that offer both enhanced performance and reduced environmental cost.
Trusted by Racers, Chosen by Us
Alpina’s dedication to lightweight design, aerodynamic refinement, and precise quality control aligns seamlessly with the needs of top-tier wheel systems. This relentless focus on precision complements our pursuit of perfection in the Airia series. By selecting Alpina’s Hyperlite Aero spokes—crafted with the same ethos—we ensure every wheel delivers the responsiveness and durability worthy of the Alpina legacy.
