R2BIKE wheelset 29" TR EN | NONPLUS Components Center Lock hubs | Newmen Carbon rims
Application: Trail TR, Enduro EN
With this wheelset you can really let it rip. The light and stable NONPLUS Components hubs and the excellently manufactured Newmen rims are forgiving of the occasional riding error. The balanced selection of components guarantees you a high level of reliability and a long service life.
Hubs
Three decades of experience in the development and production of hubs have left their mark, albeit a "very light" one.
Over the years, the head of development at NONPLUS COMPONENTS, Christian Jenny, has been able to accumulate an immense amount of specialist and practical knowledge, which led to the production of the company's first prototypes in 2016 after finding an investor.
In order to guarantee the precise production of the hubs, Frank Präzisionsteile GmbH, a company based in Murr, Baden-Württemberg, which is also the investor, took over production. A short time later, in 2018, NON+ was registered as a trademark. Since then, the wheels at one of the most innovative think tanks for bike components in Germany have not stood still. New concepts are constantly being developed and patents applied for in order to set new standards in the future.
The NONPLUS rear hub is a masterpiece of engineering and is unique due to its weight in combination with its approval for almost every application in cycling. The black anodized oversized hub body forms the heart of the hub, around which everything revolves. Two large bearings support the hub shell on a 17 mm axle, two further bearings support the freewheel and the micro-gap end caps keep dirt and water away from the inside of the hub.
A Center Lock brake rotor mount, which extends directly to the spoke flange, ensures optimum transmission of the braking forces. On the opposite side, the patented freehub mechanism is concealed inside. The unique tapered toothing has a contact surface that is approx. 400 % larger than conventional spur gear toothing and therefore enables maximum power transmission with minimum wear. Together with the hard anodized surface, the special, very elaborately manufactured back of the tooth ensures low abrasion and thus additionally increases the service life. The 45-fold toothing results in a maximum free travel of 8°. This means you have immediate propulsion when you need it in difficult passages, for example, and don't lose any valuable time when sprinting to the finish.
Rims
Advanced becomes Phase - Newmen provides a special rim for every area of application within this series. Whether cross-country, all-mountain or enduro, you always get a model that is uncompromisingly customized, but they all have one thing in common: Newmen's high quality.
The Phase Base front and rear or in combination with a Phase Strong rim on the rear wheel are the first choice for anyone who really wants to let it rip. They shine with low weight and first-class riding characteristics. The perfectly processed carbon fibers are extremely impact-resistant and give the rim incredible stability. This means that precise steering movements are possible at all times. A special production process makes reworking and painting unnecessary. This saves even more grams.
The very generous inner width of 30 mm, together with the slightly outward-positioned sidewall, gives the tire an optimally round shape, which is reflected in better grip and more comfort.Newmen has opted for a hookless rim flange, which has been specially reinforced to better withstand possible punctures. As a result, you can ride with less air pressure and achieve optimum tubeless compatibility.
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 offer a lifetime guarantee against spoke breakage as long as it is not caused by force.
The following services are also included:
You will receive a universal wheel bag for all common sizes.
You will receive a replacement spoke with nipple in all required spoke lengths so that you can repair the wheel quickly after an accident.
You will receive a free initial inspection of the wheel, where the resulting work is completely free of charge. Only shipping costs are incurred.
You get a crash replacement promise: If your wheel is damaged due to force majeure, we will rebuild it once. We grant a 100% discount on all labor costs and only charge for the material.
