Description
If you get your kicks with Adventure Riding, Gravel Epics or MTB Cross Country (XC) marathons, then you'll be looking for a reliable, lightweight front wheel that can provide improved comfort and reduced fatigue. Spank's Flare 24 Vibrocore complete wheel pairs the tubeless-ready Flare 24 Vibrocore clincher rim with the Hex Gravel front hub to bring you a disc-specific wheel that has been optimised for back-country epics.
The Vibrocore inner of the rim is claimed to reduce harmful vibration and improve the comfort of the rider whilst also increasing the fatigue life of the rim. The wide 28mm outer rim width and 24mm inner rim width combined with the low 16.5mm profile promote radial compliance of the wheel system which is said to improve traction and again, improve rider comfort. Tubeless performance and reliability, even at low pressures, are greatly improved thanks to the Bead Nip profile of the rim bead seats.
Made from a CNC optimized forged alloy body, the Hex Gravel front hub uses oversized sealed cartridge bearings and the Ø28 axle standard and adapters for adaptability between QR x 100mm (included), 12 x 100mm (included), and 15 x 100mm (available separately) front hub spacing and axle standards.
Who's this item for: Gravel, Adventure, XC riders looking for a front wheel that is reliable, durable, lightweight and comfortable. Be sure to check the front hub compatibility though, as these wheels are suitable for QRx100m and 12x100mm out of the box and require adapters to work with 15mm thru-axle.
