Description
The Grappler Race Alloy e*spec Enduro Wheels are engineered specifically for the rigors of full-power e-bike riding on aggressive terrain. Refined over multiple World Cup racing seasons, they are up to 228% stronger than earlier e*spec Plus models. They offer the perfect balance between responsiveness, precision, comfort, and increased durability at an incredible value.
The welded 6069 aluminum rims with 30mm inner width have ample lateral stability but with a low profile height for frontal compliance, reduced fatigue, and increased traction. The low rim profile height and double-butted spokes make for a responsive and dynamic ride. The e*spec-specific rims are also reinforced over the analog version to support heavier full-power e-bikes.
The unique e*spec rear hub utilizes an oversized hub shell, large 6808 bearings, a steel axle, and 32 spokes, allowing it to withstand the higher drive torque and bike weight that e-bikes entail. These features also provide longer bearing life and better freehub sealing. The freehub has 6 degrees of engagement, striking the perfect balance between quick response and pedal kickback reduction.
Features
Center Knobs: Spiked tread design for maximum control in muddy or loose conditions; knobs can be easily trimmed for racing.
Shoulder Knobs: Designed to punch through chunder while maintaining control on slippery roots and rocks.
Under-tread breaker ply: Helps prevent punctures and improves tubeless performance.
