Product details

Tuned front and rear carbon wheel system for enduro rides and races. Specific front and rear wheels that are tailored and optimized for the performance requirements and stresses of mountain biking. A compliant, tuned front wheel improves handling and maximizes grip and control in corners. A wider inner rim width supports a broader tire profile at the front, increases volume and contact area, and rounds off the tire profile to enhance cornering behavior. The stiff, tuned rear wheel supports peak loads and improves stability and tracking at speed. A narrower inner rim width supports a narrower tire profile at the rear, reduces rolling resistance, and sharpens the tire edge for more grip.

The US manufacturer's E-MTB-specific carbon wheels come with special front and rear rims as well as 28 and 32 spokes respectively. Sturdily built and with a sparse scope of delivery, the stiffness test bench reveals a rather softer orientation. The factory build is still okay.
