Description
Wheelset 29 "TR AM EN | DT Swiss 240 EXP MTB Straightpull 6-hole hubs | Syntace aluminum rims
intended use : Trail TR, All Mountain AM to Enduro EN
With this wheelset you can really get it going even in difficult terrain. The indestructible DT Swiss hubs and the extremely stable Syntace rims also forgive a driving mistake. The balanced 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 newly launched DT Swiss 240 hubs. These properties were achieved through the Ratchet EXP technology. With this, the hubs not only manage with fewer components and thus lower weight and less wear, it also allows the bearing to be placed significantly further out on the drive side. The larger distance between the bearings results in a higher stiffness of the hub, a lower bearing load and thus a higher durability. The rigidity on the hub body serves to distribute the load more evenly on the spokes. 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 tooth lock washer freewheel system with its large contact surface 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 them with an even better aluminum alloy and with a profile that has been further developed in many test bench runs. And still made 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 bed ensure a long-lasting construction without increasing the weight with additional washers.
The V-shape profile with the outward-facing and reinforced rim flanges reliably holds the tire 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, 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 has not been caused by violence!
You will also receive the following services for our wheels:
A universal impeller bag for all common sizes.
A spare spoke + nipple in all required spoke lengths in order to be able to repair the wheel at short notice even after accidents.
A free initial inspection of the wheel, in 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 100% discount on all labor costs and only charge the material!
