Specialized Traverse HD i9 1/1 Wheel Description:
Specialized Traverse HD wheels offer unbeatable strength and control for park, trail, or World Cup-level downhill riding. Traverse HD rims feature an asymmetric shape design that has been strengthened with offset spoke drilling and optimized for either front or rear wheel use in the most severe terrain. Ride quality is not only a measure of total security, but the feeling of compliance when putting in long days on the trail, Roval Traverse are constructed with a refined carbon lay up process to increase smoothness in front, with a focus on strength and stiffness in rear for ideal ride quality. A rim with the utmost level of strength can not function well without an ideal tire to match; Traverse rims are shaped with Flat Top, a bead profile that requires 85% more force to pinch flat compared to a standard round bead, virtually eliminating snake bites. At the heart of each wheel lies the Industry 9 1/1 Hub, a choice that represents superior manufacturing and features a dual-phased-pawl drive mechanism, accomplishing 90 points of engagement for near-instant engagement, elevating power transfer and aiding in technical riding situations.
