Wheelset 28" Disc RR | Extralite Road Straightpull 6-hole hubs | ENVE Carbon rims
Application: Road bike RR, triathlon, time trial
Road cyclists are looking for the best compromise between weight, aerodynamics and stiffness. The combination of ENVE carbon rims and exclusive Extralite hubs should therefore always be on your shortlist. The balanced selection of components guarantees you high reliability and a long service life.
Hubs
It has long been known that the Italians at Extralite create small CNC works of art. The now one-piece hub body is CNC-milled from high-strength 7075TX aluminum at great expense. It rotates around a 15 mm front and 17 mm rear aluminum axle with double-sealed deep groove ball bearings. The axial play can be finely adjusted using the micro-tuner. The improved flange geometry ensures a more optimal spoke angle and can now be used with higher spoke tensions. Another new feature is the use of titanium gearing with 32 teeth, which is controlled by two pawls in the hub body.
The main advantages of the Straightpull hubs are, in addition to the more modern design, 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
ENVE carbon rims are developed by ENVE in the USA and manufactured to the highest quality standards at the company's headquarters in Utah. ENVE's engineers have years of experience with the use of carbon in the field of cycling and know what requirements a top product such as these carbon rims must meet. At ENVE, every effort is made to utilize the advantages of carbon and eliminate its disadvantages. Stiff and extremely light rims have been developed in which all fibers can run without interruption, which corresponds to the best possible utilization of the material thicknesses. This principle was perfected for the spoke holes, with continuous fiber strands forming the receptacle for the spoke nipples. Aluminum inserts, which are common in other carbon rims, can therefore be dispensed with during production. This reduces the weight and at the same time allows significantly higher spoke tensions, which in turn allow the construction of stiffer wheels.
Please note the maximum permissible system weight in the rim selection menu under "Show description".
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.
