Wheelset 28" Disc GRV | DT Swiss 180 Road Straightpull Center Lock hubs | Newmen Gravel Carbon rims
Application: Gravel GRV
This lightweight yet stable wheelset is the first choice for dedicated gravel or cross bikers. The fine selection of components guarantees high reliability and a long service life.
Hubs
Lighter, stiffer, more precise and easier to maintain - these are the strengths of the DT Swiss 180 hubs. The smooth-running SINC Ceramic ball bearings offer you a further decisive advantage; they ensure minimal rolling resistance. The stiffness of the hub body serves to distribute the load more evenly on the spokes. Drive 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 RATCHET EXP toothed disc freewheel has also been further developed. This highly reliable system ensures direct power transmission without losses.
The main advantages of Straightpull hubs, apart from the modern design, are contactless spokes that do not cause any unpleasant noises and spoke heads that cannot work their way into the spoke flange. However, if desired, the straightpull hubs can also be cross-spoked.
Rims
Like all Newmen carbon rims, the Advanced SL X.R.25 impresses with its first-class mechanical properties and very low weight and is the ideal basis for a lightweight gravel wheelset.
The hookless construction makes it ideal for tubeless use, while the significantly reinforced rim flange is better able to withstand possible punctures and allows riding with low air pressure. To avoid weak points and increase durability, the spoke holes were drilled in a special process without damaging the structure of the carbon fibres. The generous inner width for gravel rims also gives wide tires a reliable grip. The slightly outward-positioned sidewalls make the shape of the tire rounder, resulting in significantly better cornering grip and increased safety.
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.
