29" XC wheelset | DT Swiss 350 MTB 6-hole hubs | Newmen carbon rims
Range of use: Cross Country XC to light Trail TR
With this wheelset, even racers can really let it rip. The indestructible DT Swiss hubs and the superbly crafted Newmen rims are forgiving of the occasional riding error, while the balanced selection of components guarantees high reliability and a long service life.
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. Thanks to their simple but well thought-out design, the current 350 hubs have become significantly lighter compared to the previous versions. The proven ratchet freehub system of the DT-Swiss 240 hubs makes the hubs an extremely reliable companion. Compared to pawl systems, the ratchet freehub offers a more even power transmission, which significantly reduces wear. With 36 teeth, the hub reacts very directly to acceleration. The new shape of the end caps makes disassembly even easier, making it even easier to convert to other axle standards.
Rims
Advanced becomes Phase - Newmen provides a special rim for every area of application within this series. Whether cross-country, all-mountain or enduro, you will always get a model that is uncompromisingly customized, but they all have one thing in common: Newmen's high quality.
The Phase Light front and rear or in combination with a Phase Base rim on the rear wheel are the first choice for every racer. They shine with the lowest weight and first-class riding characteristics. The perfectly processed carbon fibers are extremely impact-resistant and give the rim incredible stability. This means that precise steering movements are possible at all times. A special production process makes reworking and painting unnecessary. This saves even more grams.
The very generous inner width of 30 mm, together with the slightly outward-positioned sidewall, gives the tire an optimally round shape, which is reflected in better grip and more comfort.Newmen has opted for a hookless rim flange, which has been reinforced and is better able to withstand possible punctures. This means that you can ride with less air pressure and achieve optimum tubeless compatibility.
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.
