Hub
  • Labyrinth and low-friction contact seals effectively shut out water, mud and dirt while enhancing rotational smoothness
  • Bearing races are polished to reduce friction and provide a more precise bearing action
  • Forged and anodized aluminum body for lightweight strength

    Rim

  • 6061 aluminum is SUP welded and milled to add strength, eliminate shuddering when braking and enhance wheel balance
  • Tough anodized finish resists corrosion
  • UB Control coating along the sidewall delivers powerful and solid stopping performance
  • Internal wear indicator allows safe detection of a worn out rim
  • 36 (3x) stainless steel, double butted spokes add durable strength and resilience
    • Road Wheels
    Gear Type- Identify if you have a Freewheel or Cassette.
    Number of Cogs-
    Select a hub for the number of rear cogs you have 7, 8, 9, or 10. Most 9 speed hubs are 8 and 10 speed compatible.
    Rear Axle Spacing-
    Measure the rear spacing on your frame. Most mountain bikes are 135mm but there are still some older 130mm bikes around. In some cases it will be 132.5mm which can take either 130mm, or 135mm spaced hubs.
    Valve Type-
    • Presta (top)
    • Schrader (bottom)
    Diameter- Wheels must have the same rim diameter that your frame and fork were designed for. In some cases 27" wheels can be replaced with 700c wheels, but the brake pads will have to be adjusted down to meet the smaller diameter rim. 650c and 700c wheels are not interchangable. 650c and mountain bike 26" wheels are not interchangable.
    Desired Tire Width- Minimum width is limited by the width of the rim, a tire that is too small increases the risk of rim damage when striking an obstical, or the tire not seating properly and being prone to flats.

    Maximum tire size is limited by the amount of clearance for the tire within the frame, and the the width of the rim, a very wide tire mounted to a narrow rim will not be very stable and may cause unpredictable handling as the tire rolls over in turns.

    A good guideline for maximum and minimum tire size is shown below.

    Hand-built to take the day-to-day abuse of commuting, touring or urban trail riding.
