SHIMANO XTR wheelset 29" WH-M9220 Center Lock | Shimano Micro Spline
Robust. Intuitive. Consistent. - is the motto for the new XTR M9200 groupset. With it, Shimano and the bike community are celebrating the rebirth of Di2 technology on their top model. And at the very highest level. Thanks to contemporary wireless control, perfect functionality, a 12-speed drivetrain and the usual outstanding build quality, you'll be rushing from victory to victory and giving the competition a run for their money.
The WH-M9220 wheelset also puts you right at the front of the pack, providing stability and giving you the necessary safety reserves on fast and rough trails. Shimano uses carbon for the rims. The perfectly processed UD carbon fibres give the wheelset an elegant look and immediately convert every acceleration into propulsion.The surface is also very resistant, so that external influences have little effect on it and the rim can forgive the occasional riding error.
Thanks to the enormous inner width of 30 mm, even wide tires are perfectly supported in the rim well, offering you the best grip and comfort. With the hookless and reinforced rim flange, everything is prepared for tubeless use, which significantly reduces the susceptibility to punctures.
The rims have 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.
Shimano's own XTR hubs rotate in the center. This is the first time that the Japanese company has used high-quality industrial bearings, whose high bearing quality and perfect sealing ensure smooth running and a long service life. They are also practically maintenance-free and there is no need for time-consuming adjustment of the bearing play. The decision to use a J-bend flange is ideal for this area of application in particular, as it significantly increases rigidity.
A toothed disk freewheel works on the rear wheel. In addition to its distinctive sound, it has a very small pressure angle of 3.5° and thus reduces the free travel to a minimum.
