Wheelset 27.5 "TR AM EN | DT Swiss 240 EXP MTB Straightpull Center Lock hubs | Syntace aluminum rims
intended use : Trail TR, All Mountain AM to Enduro EN
With this wheelset you can really let it rip even in difficult terrain. The indestructible DT Swiss hubs and the extremely stable Syntace rims forgive a driving error. The balanced selection of components guarantees you a high level of reliability and a long service life.
Hubs
Lighter, stiffer, more precise and easier to maintain - these are the strengths of the newly launched DT Swiss 240 hubs. These properties were achieved through the Ratchet EXP technology. With this, not only do the hubs get by with fewer components and the associated lower weight and less wear, it also allows the bearing to be positioned significantly further out on the drive side. The greater distance between the bearings results in a higher stiffness of the hub, a lower bearing load and thus a higher durability. The stiffness of the hub body serves to distribute the load on the spokes more evenly. Driving and braking forces are transmitted even better from both spoke flanges to all spokes. One-sided load peaks are prevented, which protects the hub, spokes and rim. The super reliable toothed pulley freewheel system with its large contact area and 36 locking points ensures extremely direct and reliable power transmission.
rims
In the past, narrow rims and heavy tires were the norm. Today, however, wide rims can be combined with new, light types of tires. But really wide, high-quality rims were inevitably still a bit heavier than their narrow brothers, otherwise the durability suffered. Syntace was the first to break this vicious circle in 2011. The original Syntace rim W33 was the first such wide and light aluminum rim on the market. After more than 5 years of experience, they have improved this with an even better aluminum alloy and with a profile that has been further developed in many test bench runs. And still made another 50 g lighter. Much more crack-resistant spoke anchoring in the rim base thanks to the SmoothFit profile and perfectly angular embedding of the nipples in the rim base ensure a long-lasting construction without adding additional washers to the weight.
The V-shape profile with the outward-facing and reinforced rim flanges holds the tire reliably on the rim and is extremely stable.
Wheel construction at R2-Bike
Our wheels are completely assembled by hand by our wheel builders. During the entire construction process, it is important that not only the concentricity is correct, but also that the spoke tension is as even as possible. The special care allows us to give a lifelong guarantee against broken spokes, as long as this was not caused by force!
You will also receive the following services for our balance bikes:
A universal impeller 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 an accident.
A free initial inspection of the impeller, during which the resulting work is completely free! Only shipping costs are charged.
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 the material!
