Wheelset 29 "TR AM EN | Industry Nine MTB Center Lock 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 Industry Nine 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
The Industry Nine Hydra Classic hubs are a real gem on every bike. Developed and produced in Asheville, North Carolina, they favorably set themselves apart from the competition with many small technical refinements. With their externally sealed bearing and stable axle , they are optimally protected against environmental influences and are also ideally equipped for downhill use. Tapered spoke flanges help to reduce the forces on the sensitive spoke heads and thus prevent spoke breaks.
However, the pawl freewheel on the rear wheel hub is revolutionary. It consists of a drive ring with 115 teeth and 6 staggered pawls. These are designed so that as soon as one of them has a frictional connection, the others can also absorb torques shortly afterwards. This means that a single jack only has the power to carry it for a very short time. The big plus of this system is an extremely short free travel with 0.52 °, which brings clear advantages in technical passages or when hard starts. In addition, the fine grid leads to a unique soundscape on the impeller.
The maintenance effort is also relatively low. You can disassemble and clean the hub without tools.
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!
