Wheelset 28" Disc RR | DT Swiss 350 Road Classic Center Lock hubs | Duke Baccara X 36 SLR2 Carbon rims | Shimano Road | Sapim CX-Ray
Range of use: Road bike RR, Gravel GRV
Stable, functional and affordable - that's the best way to characterize this wheelset. The combination of Duke wide Duke Carbon rims and DT Swiss 350 hubs should therefore always be on your shortlist. The well-balanced selection of components guarantees you high reliability and a long service life.
DT Swiss 350 hubs
Switzerland is known for good chocolate, first-class cheese and marvels of precision engineering. The dedication to detail that goes into these products is also reflected in the DT Swiss 350 hubs. Above all, the love of mechanics is easy to see. The tried and tested toothed pulley freewheel with 36 notches is extremely reliable and hardly needs to shy away from comparison with Swiss clockwork. The bearing technology with 2 bearings each for the freewheel and hub body is adapted to the loads that occur. The labyrinth sealing system with the sliding sealing washers and the steel bearing rings ensure a long service life. Should a service be necessary after tens of thousands of kilometers, the hubs can be disassembled and serviced within a few minutes without special tools thanks to the DT Swiss plug-in system.
Duke Baccara X 36 SLR2 rims
With the Baccara X series, the French company is primarily targeting comfort-conscious long-distance cyclists. Thanks to the enormous inner width of 23 mm, even large-volume tires get their optimal shape, filter impacts from the ground better and have more grip. The rim height of 36 mm enables a very stiff wheel and at the same time, thanks to the optimized rim profile, very good aerodynamic values.
Thanks to the SLR2 production technology developed by Duke, the weight is reduced by approx. 10% compared to its predecessor, while at the same time increasing durability and stability. Similar to the SLS2 production process, no post-processing or painting is required after production. The use of highly modular carbon fibers also improves the inherent damping, which in turn has a positive effect on riding comfort. The modified construction also enables unrestricted tubeless use.
SAPIM CX-Ray spokes
With the CX-Ray, Sapim has succeeded in developing an exceptional spoke. In addition to its low weight, it has an exceptional load capacity and flexibility. This also results in a wide range of applications. Whether road cyclists or mountain bikers, everyone benefits from these positive characteristics. In addition, the flattened middle section ensures excellent aerodynamics. The high material quality enables the construction of stable wheels and guarantees a long service life.
Sapim's CX-Ray spokes can be installed in all standard hub holes.
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!
You also receive the following services with our wheels:
A universal wheel 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 accidents.
A free initial inspection of the wheel, where the resulting work is completely free of charge! Only shipping costs apply.
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 for the material!
