The Crank Brothers tuned wheel system now offers an aluminium option with the Synthesis Alloy E-MTB Rear Wheel. This innovative design focuses on a compliant front wheel paired with a stiff rear wheel, ensuring the best ride for each. The compliant front wheel enhances handling and control during turns, while the stiff rear wheel boosts stability and tracking at high speeds. In the alloy range, these features are achieved through variations in spoke tension, spoke weight, spoke count, rim width, and rim weight.
The range includes models for Enduro, XC/Trail, and E-bikes, catering to a wide range of riders. For Enduro and XCT models, there are two hub options: a Crank Brothers hub and an i9 1/1 hub, both offering 4 degrees of engagement. Additionally, Enduro and XCT rims are available separately for custom wheel building.
