Anyone tried to use a Roval rear disc wheel (TA 142 * 10 end caps) on an other frame as Specialized? On the current Tarmac disc, you have to use their Roval rear wheel (Disc with QR) for chain line issues, or use a different derailleur hanger if used with other than Roval wheels. Does it mean that you can only use the Roval disc wheels in QR version on their own brand of bikes, or does it also mean that even with 142 * 12 TA, Roval wheels are Specialized specific? I'm lurking toward their new CLX32 to be used in my canyon, but I'm unsure about campatibility :noidea:

I'm maybe answering partially my own question, but it appears that Roval (at least for their CLX40) have 2 version af the rear disc wheel : regular and SCS (to be used in tarmac's). For the CLX32 I don't see those 2 models. But, those CLX 32 are stock on the high end tarmac's. What am I missing? Is the tarmac the only one that needs SCS hubs? The CLX32 wheel is also used in the new Roubaix. So, 2 versions of CLX32 or not?
