The most versatile model in our collection
The TYRO stands for maximum versatility. Not only because these wheels are available in almost all possible variations, but especially because they can be used in all conditions and on any terrain.
Thanks to their low weight, starting from just 1640 grams total, the TYRO feels at home both in flatlands and high mountains. Optimized for high speeds with lateral stiffness for winning sprints and improving your PRs on every climb.
Some unique USPs we absolutely want to highlight are:
- The TYRO features a "Ratchet" hub instead of the "Pawl" system used by almost every other wheel brand in this price range. The Ratchet system provides quicker engagement, is more durable, and requires less maintenance. Built to last!
- The TYRO wheels have exactly the same build quality as their larger (more expensive) siblings, the RAW and the RYOT.
- The TYRO is produced entirely in-house by our skilled wheel builders, and each wheel undergoes a very thorough check before being shipped.
Modern tubeless ready rims
The 45mm high carbon rims of the TYRO Rim Brake meet all modern requirements. The internal width of the rim is optimized for mounting tires up to 44mm, making the TYRO suitable for road bikes, cyclocross, and gravel bikes. That's what we mean by maximum versatility! Of course, the TYRO rims are tubeless-ready, and the wheels always come standard with tubeless tape mounted and tubeless valves.
Full carbon wheels for rim brakes
Anyone who thinks that bikes with rim brakes are extinct and that no more wheels are being made for them is mistaken! Despite the rise of bikes with disc brakes, more bikes with rim brakes are still being ridden. For FFWD, this is more than enough reason to keep the modern TYRO wheels for rim brake bikes available in their collection.
FFWD hubs as a solid foundation
High-quality hubs with low rolling resistance and optimal durability. The TYRO comes standard with our own FFWD hub, providing stable and reliable quality at the best possible conditions. The FFWD hubs of the TYRO Rim Brake come standard with quick release skewers.
