SYNCROS wheelset 28" Capital 1.0s 40 | Shimano Road
This SYNCROS Capital wheelset is recommended for anyone who feels particularly comfortable on hilly terrain or is looking for a challenge off the tarmac.It is the perfect basis for any road or gravel bike and will have you flying up the hills thanks to its low weight.
At the center of the wheelset are the indestructible DT Swiss 240 hubs, which have proven themselves a thousand times over. With their high-quality bearings adapted to the area of use and an elaborate seal, a long service life and low maintenance requirements are guaranteed. The high rigidity of the body distributes the forces that occur during braking and acceleration evenly, so that no damage is caused by load peaks. On the rear wheel, the EXP pulley freehub with its large contact surface and 36 engagement points not only ensures extremely direct and reliable power transmission, but also a distinctive sound.
DT Swiss Aerolite spokes and Pro Lock nipples connect the hubs to the rims. The middle section was flattened using the cold forging process and therefore has a particularly high material strength. The straight design and the elimination of the highly stressed spoke bend also eliminates a potential breaking point and minimizes the susceptibility to punctures. In the Pro Lock process, a patented two-component adhesive is injected into the nipple thread and enables the construction of extremely durable wheels. As soon as the nipples are screwed in, the adhesive is activated and hardens completely at room temperature after approx. 6 - 7 hours. Repeated re-centering is still possible without any problems, although the adhesive strength decreases slightly each time.
The rims are a real eye-catcher. Made from high-quality carbon fibers, they are stable and can withstand even the hardest impacts. This is also supported by the specially reinforced and hookless rim flanges. The rim height of 40 mm guarantees very good aerodynamics, but also cushions bumpy slopes as far as possible. Nevertheless, it is stiff enough to provide excellent directional stability on fast descents. Of course, the rims can be run tubeless, which ensures a high level of puncture protection even with low air pressure. The inner width is very generous. Even very wide tires are reliably supported and you always have a safe riding experience.
