MCFK wheelset 28" Road 25 mm UD-Carbon | DT Swiss 240s EXP Straightpull Center Lock hubs | Decals black
Road cyclists are looking for the best compromise between weight, aerodynamics and stiffness. The combination of MCFK carbon rims and indestructible DT Swiss hubs should therefore always be on your shortlist. The balanced selection of components guarantees you high reliability and a long service life.
DT Swiss 240 EXP hubs
Lighter, stiffer, more precise and easier to maintain - these are the strengths of the new DT Swiss 240 hubs. These properties have been achieved thanks to the Ratchet EXP technology. This not only means that the hubs have fewer components and therefore lower weight and less wear, it also allows the bearing to be positioned much further out on the drive side. The greater distance between the bearings results in greater hub rigidity, lower bearing loads and therefore greater durability. The stiffness on the hub body serves to distribute the load more evenly on the spokes. Drive and braking forces are transmitted even better from both spoke flanges to all spokes. One-sided load peaks are prevented, which protects the hub, spokes and rim. The proven toothed disk freehub system with its large contact surface and 36 engagement points ensures extremely direct and reliable power transmission.
MCFK UD-Carbon 25 mm rims
This lightweight, stable and beautifully crafted carbon rim from the lightweight construction specialist from Leipzig will significantly enhance your bike. It offers an exclusive, flawless look and has unique technical features. Compared to the previous model, all components have been scrutinized once again and weight has been reduced without sacrificing stability.
MCFK's many years of experience in rim production can be seen in the complex ply structure. The arrangement of the fibers and the amount of resin used are precisely adapted to the specific, punctual loads. In addition, weak points are avoided from the outset thanks to the one-piece monocoque construction. This makes the rim homogeneous, very resistant and saves weight. MCFK has opted for classic rim flanges with hooks. As a result, the tires sit securely in the rim well at all times, even with high air pressures.
The Saxons have also gone their own way with the spoke holes. These are not drilled afterwards, which would have a negative impact on stability and durability, but are laminated in. In addition, the nipple seats have been preformed and compacted to ensure a perfect fit, especially for DT Swiss and Sapim nipples.
The asymmetrical cross-section of the rim enables a very even spoke tension, which further increases the stiffness and durability of the entire wheel. And with its enormous inner width of 21 mm, it also gives wider tires an optimally round shape and thus the best conditions for increased grip and comfort.
The higher the profile, the lower the radial loads caused by bumps or punctures. Above all, this protects the spokes and their mounts and increases durability. The sidewall height of 25 mm is an excellent compromise between stability and weight. This guarantees agile handling and fast acceleration.
Sapim CX-Ray spokes
With the CX-Ray, Sapim has succeeded in developing an exceptional spoke. In addition to its low weight, it has an exceptional load capacity and flexibility. This also results in a wide range of applications. Whether road cyclists or mountain bikers, everyone benefits from these positive characteristics. In addition, the flattened middle section ensures excellent aerodynamics. The high material quality enables the construction of stable wheels and guarantees a long service life.
Sapim's CX-Ray spokes can be installed in all standard hub holes.
