Giant SLR 1 36 Hookless Clincher Disc Road Wheel Description:
Giant SLR 1 36 Hookless Clincher Disc Road Wheel are designed for cyclists that are looking for a lightweight wheel that can handle what the road throws at them. The advanced carbon fiber construction uses a hookless sidewall design to eliminate bends in the carbon fiber strands and to remove unnecessary material, which results in a lightweight disc brake road bike rim that rival's a mountain bike rim for impact resistance, stiffness, and overall strength. The hookless inner rim also creates a smoother interface between the tire and the rim for better aerodynamics, and creates a rounder tire shape and larger contact patch that increases flat prevention, sidewall support, and traction. Bladed, straight-pull Sapim CX-Ray stainless steel spokes improve the aerodynamic performance of the wheel, and work with the Dynamic Balanced Lacing pattern to boost lateral stiffness and reduce the rotational weight. Additionally, the straight pull spoke design eliminates potential spoke breakage at the hub, and the hub rolls on low friction precision sealed bearings for impressively low rolling resistance and minimal maintenance. Combine all of these features together with an attractive price and these durable wheels become a great upgrade that will give the rider many miles of smiles.
Features:
- Carbon fiber rims with hookless construction creates a rugged rim that removes unnecessary material to reduce the weight
- Disc brake specific rim with a hookless design creates smoother air flow over tire/rim junction and allows for lower tire pressures to be run for better grip through corners, a smoother ride, and improved flat prevention
- Generous 22.4mm inner rim width offers better support for higher volume tires, and this rim width will work best for tires between 26 - 38mm in width
- Bladed, straight-pull Sapim CX Ray stainless steel spokes boast incredibly high tensile strength that allows these spokes to be strong enough for enduro mountain bike racing but with incredibly low weight for less rotating weight
- Dynamic Balanced Lacing produces stiff, efficient wheel with top-level power transfer
- Giant low friction hub utilizes precision sealed low friction cartridge bearings for low rolling resistance and minimal maintenance
- Both wheels accept centerlock compatible rotors (rotors sold separately)
- Rear hub uses a rachet drive for quick engagement and low maintenence
- Each wheel will include rim tape and a tubeless valve kit
- Max rider weight limit of 285 lbs
