Wheelset 28" Disc RR | DT Swiss 240 EXP Road Straightpull Center Lock hubs | MCFK Carbon rims
Application: Road bike RR
Road cyclists are looking for the best compromise between weight, aerodynamics and stiffness. The combination of MCFK carbon rims and indestructible DT Swiss hubs should therefore always be on the shortlist. The balanced selection of components guarantees you high reliability and a long service life.
Hubs
Lighter, stiffer, more precise and easier to maintain - these are the strengths of the new DT Swiss 240 hubs. These properties have been achieved thanks to Ratchet EXP technology. This not only means that the hubs have fewer components and therefore lower weight and less wear, it also allows the bearing to be positioned much further out on the drive side. The greater distance between the bearings results in greater hub rigidity, lower bearing loads and therefore greater durability. The stiffness on 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 super reliable toothed pulley freehub system with its large contact surface and 36 engagement points ensures extremely direct and reliable power transmission.
Rims
This lightweight, stable and beautifully finished carbon rim from the lightweight construction specialist in Leipzig will significantly enhance your racer. It offers an exclusive and flawless look and has unique technical features. The one-piece monocoque construction avoids weak points from the outset. This makes the rim homogeneous, very resistant and saves weight. MCFK has opted for classic rim flanges with hooks. As a result, the tires sit securely in the rim well at all times, even with high inflation pressures. The Saxons have gone their own way with the spoke holes. They are not drilled afterwards, which would have a negative impact on stability and durability, but are laminated in. In addition, the nipple seat has been preformed and compacted to ensure a perfect fit, especially for DT Swiss and Sapim nipples. The asymmetrical cross-section of the rim enables very even spoke tension, which further increases the stiffness of the entire wheel. And with its enormous inner width of 21 mm, it also gives wider tires an optimally round shape and thus the best conditions for increased grip and comfort. Of course, you can also ride tubeless with a separately available tubeless kit.
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.
