Reinforced rims, spokes, and a DH-specific profile ensure maximum strength and reliability, while modern DH Boost spacing availability guarantees compatibility with today’s downhill bikes. Proven on the toughest courses, this wheelset is designed to inspire confidence and deliver speed, lap after lap. With Synthesis DH Alloy 2.0 wheels, every descent becomes your playground.
Features:
- Tuned Front & Rear System: Optimized alloy wheels designed for Downhill riding, with front- and rear-specific tuning to meet the unique performance demands and loads of mountain biking
- Compliant tuned front wheel improves handling, grip and cornering control with an inner rim width that supports a wider tire profile, increasing volume and contact patch for improved turning performance
