R2BIKE Wheelset 29" XC | DT Swiss 350 MTB 6-hole hubs | Duke Carbon rims
Application: Cross Country XC
XC racers always want to win and are therefore looking for lightweight yet stable wheels. The combination of Duke Carbon rims and proven DT Swiss hubs should therefore always be on your shortlist. The balanced component selection guarantees you high reliability and a long service life.
Hubs
Switzerland is known for good chocolate, first-class cheese and marvels of precision engineering. The dedication to detail that goes into these products is also reflected in the DT Swiss 350 hubs. Above all, the love of mechanics is easy to see. Thanks to their simple but well thought-out design, the current 350 hubs have become significantly lighter compared to the previous versions. The proven ratchet freehub system of the DT-Swiss 240 hubs makes the hubs an extremely reliable companion. Compared to pawl systems, the ratchet freehub offers a more even power transmission, which significantly reduces wear. With 36 teeth, the hub reacts very directly to acceleration. The new shape of the end caps makes disassembly even easier, making it even easier to convert to other axle standards.
Rims
The carbon rims from Duke in France stand for low weight and excellent workmanship. The hookless design is ideal for use with tubeless systems. The reinforced bead means that any punctures can be better absorbed without causing damage. The fairly flat and wide rims reliably support the tire in any situation, so you won't have a spongy ride even with low air pressure.
The asymmetrical shape enables a more even spoke tension, which further increases the stiffness of the entire wheel.
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 has not been caused by force!
You also receive the following services with our wheels:
A universal wheel bag for all common sizes.
A spare spoke + nipple in all required spoke lengths to be able to repair the wheel at short notice even after accidents.
A free initial inspection of the wheel, where the resulting work is completely free of charge! Only shipping costs apply.
A crash replacement promise. If your wheel is damaged due to force majeure, we will rebuild your wheel once. We grant a 100% discount on all labor costs and only charge for the material!
