ERE Research Explorator II GCR40 Disc Center Lock 28" Wheelset

Item number: 216468

Crafted for the road and gravel adventurer, this high-performance wheelset combines durability with cutting-edge technology. At the heart of its design is the use of aluminum for both the rim and hub shell materials, ensuring a lightweight yet robust construction. The rims, standing at a height of 40.00mm both front and rear, are perfectly suited for clincher or folding tires, making this set a versatile choice for various terrains. With an inner rim width of 21.00mm and an outer rim width of 24.50mm, these wheels offer stability and compatibility with a wide range of tire sizes.

The spoke configuration is meticulously designed for resilience and performance, featuring 20 spokes at the front and 24 at the rear in a 2-cross pattern, made from stainless steel and built with Sapim CX-Ray for optimal strength. The spokes are connected to the rims using Sapim external brass nipples, combining reliability with ease of maintenance.

Both the front and rear hubs are equipped with steel bearings for smooth and efficient rolling, while the rear hub also features an aluminum freehub body compatible with disc Center Lock brake systems, ensuring reliable stopping power in all conditions. The wheelset is tubeless-ready, offering the option for a lower tire pressure for increased grip and comfort on rough terrains.

This wheelset is not just about performance; it's about pushing the limits on every ride, whether on smooth tarmac or challenging gravel paths. It's a choice for cyclists who demand the best in durability, efficiency, and versatility.
