Speed Tuned GrTR19d 700c Tubeless Clincher Wheel Set

Description

The Speed Tuned GRTR19d is a Gravel (GR) Tubeless Ready Disc rim that is still light enough for road.  This rim is 24mm tall, 24mm wide, with a 19mm tubeless ready inner profile that’s really strong, extremely stable, and at 460g, is still very weight competitive.  You can run higher pressure road tube + tires on them, tubeless road, or wider/higher volume CX / Gravel type tires.  They all work, and tire mounting occurs with minimal fuss.  We build and ship these wheels with tubeless tape + valves installed, but you can always pop the valves out and run them with inner tubes.  Valve remolval occurs via a simple loosening of the valve lock ring, takes about 10 secs.  If you’re into racing (Doh! not that kind of racing), training, or you simply prefer to buy really nice gear, this is your starting and finishing point.  That’s pretty straight forward.

Ready for a radical miracle?  Just a walk in the park Cougar.

The Speed Tuned ST280 hubs feature 72 points of engagement, (5 degrees) via a 6 pawl free hub.  The drive ring and pawls are super overbuilt in terms of diameter, (drive ring), height, (drive ring + pawls), and materials, (quality stainless).  Their bearing placement is proper, in terms of overall design meant to promote hub function and durability.

DT Swiss 350 hubs are excellent as well, they are finished to incredible standards, and include DT Swiss’ Star Ratchet engagement system, (same exact drive mechanism as with their DT 240’s and 180’s).  These hubs get the job done, hold up extremely well in an assortment of conditions, and have proven reliable even in the emerging context of high torque drive trains, (29er wheel bikes with 1×12 Eagle drive trains).  Essentially, DT 350’s offer you the option of buying one of the best performing hubs available anywhere, for only a modest price bump.  Given their huge value proposition, they are hands down a great option for any MTB rider that cares about their gear.

In “stock” form, these wheels are built with Sapim Leader black spokes in a 32 hole, three cross configuration front and rear.  Sapim only produces spokes and nipples, their focus has translated to legendary quality and performance over time.  If you didn’t know a thing about spokes, know that your wheels would come with a really top notch spoke product.  That being said, we’re offering a spoke upgrade option, in the form Sapim Race or Sapim DLight 2.0/1.65/2.0 spokes.  Essentially, you might be able to find a spoke product that approaches Sapim’s quality, but you’d be hard pressed to find a company that makes a better spoke product.  All their spoke products, from straight gauge to their elliptically bladed and butted products, are all the best of the best.  Sapim Dlight spokes will perform at the same relative level as DT Competition spokes for example, but will shave off approximately 75 – 80g from the wheel set.

The Speed Tuned GRTR19d Gravel Disc is a stellar wheel set option, in a field that’s composed of some of the best aluminum alloy rims ever.  Given their level of performance, they are an unbeatable deal, (coupon codes here).  We’re not joking around here.  If you don’t have a lot of time to research all the rim options in the marketplace, if you don’t have a lot of money, and if you can find this product page, maybe that’s Magic.

Should you buy this wheel set?  Entirely your call.  Should you watch this short but sweet rock climbing video?  Absolutely.  One More Fun One.

Make That Two.
