Technology:

SLR2 (Super light road series 2)

A design optimized for the demands of road and gravel riding:

• Aerospace-grade resin and optimized carbon fiber lay-up
• Up to 10% lighter and stronger than the previous SLR1 version
• Tuned vertical compliance for more comfort and responsiveness

Hooked

Hooked rim design 

• Optimized for road and gravel tire pressures 
• Ensures secure bead retention
• Wider internal width offers aerodynamic benefits

DRC (Dynamic Response Comfort)

Controlled vertical flex and rebound 

• More dynamic handling during weight transfers and bermed corners 
• Increased comfort on rough terrain 
• Reduced energy loss, more speed and efficiency

Optimized Internal Width

Maximizes tire volume and performance 

• Enables lower pressures without sacrificing rolling efficiency 
• Controls tire deformation for greater stability 
• Improves control and comfort on all terrains

VFP (Varnish Free Process)

A varnish-free finish process

• Reduces VOC emissions and carbon dust during production
• More scratch-resistant surface
• Naturally glossy finish

Offset

Asymmetrical spoke lacing

• Balances spoke tension on both sides
• Improves lateral stiffness, stability, and long-term durability
• No added weight

AntiBurp

Anti-burp and anti-debeading system

• Specially designed inner rim hooks lock the tire beads securely
• Eliminates air loss under heavy cornering or compression
• Prevents tire debeading, even in the event of a puncture

AntiPinch

Anti-pinch rim bead design 

• Prevents tire cuts from hard impacts 
• Dissipates shock energy 
• Allows low-pressure riding without pinch-flat risks

Tubeless Ready

Tubeless-compatible rim design 

• Compatible with UST and Tubeless Ready standards 
• Also compatible with tube-type (clincher) setups
