- 19mm profile height and wide width balances the benefits of radial compliance with high lateral stiffness and predictable handling
- Radial Compliance improves traction over bumps and chatter while reducing negative feedback to the rider. Performance and comfort are improved.
- Vibrocore inner well, reduces the transmission of harmful vibration frequencies, meaning less vibration for the suspension and rider, also increasing the fatigue life of the rim
- 30.5mm inner width is extremely versatile, fitting tires from 2.0 to 2.6, and even allowing + size tire use without negative squaring off of tire profiles
- Bead Bite tubeless hooks enhance tubeless performance and tire security, even at lower pressures
