| Hubs
|
One
piece alloy hubshell is strong and durable. Good
wiper seals protect bearings from dust, grit, and moisture.
21-speed compatibility. |
Lighter
alloy hubshell. Better wiper seals and polished
bearing surfaces for smooth operation. 24-speed
compatibility. |
Strongest,
lightest hub system works with fewer spokes. Premium
seals and bearings survive extreme conditions. Disk
brake compatible. 27-speed compatibility. |
| Spokes |
Straight gauge spokes and
brass nipples mean a strong, easily truable wheel. |
Fewer lightweight stainless
steel spokes for improved acceleration, comfort and corrosion
resistance. |
Premium stainless steel
butted spokes reduce spoke count for optimal acceleration
and aerodynamic performance. |
| Rims |
Aluminum alloy for improved
performance over steel wheels. Brushed braking surfaces
improve stopping power. |
Durable heat-treated aluminum.
Spokes offset in rear rim for stronger wheel. Machined
braking surfaces for all-conditions reliability. |
T-6 heat-treated aluminum.
Ceramic braking surfaces offer best feel and control.
Designed as a system with hubs and spokes for best performance.
|
| Tires |
Dual-purpose tread designs
for traction and smooth rolling in variable conditions.
|
Specific purpose tread design
front and rear for traction and handling. Higher
quality casings for better ride and reduced weight. |
Premium casing material
give best overall ride and puncture resistance.
Kevlar bead for reduced weight. Specific purpose
tread design front and rear for best possible traction
and reduced rolling resistance. |
