R2BIKE wheelset 26" Fatbike | Hope Fatbike 6-hole hubs | DT Swiss aluminum Fatbike rims
Application: Fatbike
At R2-Bikes you can also get the right accessories for your iconic fatbike. With this wheelset you can really let it rip on your favorite trail. The indestructible Hope hubs and the sturdy DT Swiss Fatbike rims are forgiving of the odd riding mistake, while the well-balanced selection of components guarantees you a high level of reliability and a long service life.
Hubs
With the Pro 4 Fatsno hub, Hope has further improved the already very reliable predecessor model. It has a larger flange diameter and therefore enables even stiffer and more durable wheels. Familiar features, such as the wide range of anodized colors, the sealed stainless steel bearings and the replaceable end caps, have been retained.
The freewheel toothing of the rear wheel axle now has 44 teeth and therefore 10% more engagement points than before. This results in an idle travel of just 8.2° and immediately converts every acceleration into propulsion. In addition, the 4 pawls can withstand even the strongest legs. The freehub body has also been completely redesigned and now uses two bearings instead of three. To ensure durability, these have been made larger.
This Fatsno version has a wider hub body especially for fatbike frames.
Rims
This extra wide yet lightweight oversize rim from DT Swiss also provides sufficient support for bulky fat bike tires. Special recesses push the weight down without sacrificing stability. The well-placed spoke holes make spoking a robust wheel possible even with this small amount of material.
Wheel construction at R2-Bike
Our wheels are assembled entirely by hand by our wheel builders. During the entire assembly process, great importance is attached to ensuring that not only the concentricity is correct, but also that the spoke tension is as even as possible. This special care allows us to give the first owner a lifetime guarantee against spoke breakage, as long as it was not caused by force.
The following services are also included for first-time buyers:
You get a universal wheel bag for all common sizes included.
You will receive a spare spoke with nipple in all required spoke lengths so that you can repair the wheel quickly after an accident.
Within 2 years of purchase, you will receive a free initial inspection of the wheel, during which the resulting work is completely free of charge. There are only shipping costs.
You get a crash replacement promise: If your wheel is damaged due to force majeure within 2 years of purchase, we will rebuild it once. We grant a 100% discount on all labor costs and only charge for the material.
