R2BIKE wheelset 28" Disc GRV | Tune Road Center Lock hubs | Duke Gravel aluminum rims
Area of application: Gravel GRV
This lightweight yet stable wheelset is the first choice for dedicated gravel or cross bikers. The well-balanced selection of components guarantees high reliability and a long service life.
Hubs
The Micro hub set is the ideal introduction to the world of lightweight hubs from Tune. As you would expect from Tune, the new Micro CL hubs are CNC-milled from 7075 aluminum. The special feature of the front hub is a new hub flange that does not require a carbon ring. The symmetrical design ensures optimum balance of the front wheel. The POEtry69 freehub mechanism keeps play to a minimum when starting off, so that direct power transmission is possible. The straightpull lacing makes it possible to create an extremely stiff wheel and the tensile forces of the spokes are transmitted in a material-appropriate manner. In addition, the absence of the spoke bend eliminates the weak point of the spokes and guarantees a durable wheelset.
Like all Tune hubs, the Micro CL is produced, milled and assembled entirely in the Black Forest.
Rims
The World Runner X 25 has been technically adapted to the modern inner widths of gravel bikes and now comes with a stable 25 mm. This makes the rim the perfect choice if you are looking for a stable, light and stiff aluminum rim for your gravel adventures. Of course, this rim is designed for tubeless use and has an asymmetrical rim profile, which enables a more even spoke angle. This optimization of the spoke angle has a number of advantages. The tension on both sides can be better aligned, which is beneficial to the durability of the spokes and the wheel as a whole. The normally direction-dependent lateral stiffness is also equalized, making the wheel more stable in itself.
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. Only shipping costs are incurred.
You get a crash replacement promise: If your wheel is damaged within 2 years of purchase due to force majeure, we will rebuild it once. We grant a 100% discount on all labor costs and only charge for the material.
