More information

Description

Laat het asfalt achter je en verken nieuwe paden met de Explorator II GCR40. Deze wielen zijn specifiek ontwikkeld om de impact van stenen en kuilen op te vangen zonder de koers te verliezen. De 40mm velghoogte zorgt voor extra stabiliteit in het zand en op gravel, terwijl het aero-profiel helpt om op snelheid te blijven tijdens verbindingsstukken op de weg. Een onverwoestbare set voor de echte avonturier.

Technology

Deze set maakt gebruik van een versterkte aluminium legering in combinatie met een breed velgbed, specifiek ontworpen voor tubeless gravelbanden. De naven zijn extra afgedicht met een labyrint-seal om modder, stof en water buiten de lagers te houden. De hoge spaakspanning en het gebruik van specifieke nippels voorkomen dat de wielen ontrichten tijdens zware belasting met bikepacking-tassen.

Included with this set

Wielset, tubeless lint, ventielen, spacer
