Crank Brothers Opium Downhill Wheels
Sturdily built to keep you upright and unfazed as you dive downhill, this Opium wheelset by Crank Brothers gives a tough and trusted performance as you push every gravity-battling ride to the limit.
Strong, stiff and speedy, each wheel maintains a hard-hitting form as you ascend to the top of the mountain and drop back down. Equipped with a 28mm internal width, each rim gives a suitable surface contactt area to provide balance and composure over the roughest routes. Durable and Dependable Downhill MTB Wheelset Specially-designed to deliver impressively low inertia by distributing mass closer to the hub, speeding up and slowing down is far more efficient and powerful as you master every route.
The 6061-T6 rim construction ensures a robust and reliable experience as you tear from trail to trail while the Opium hubs provide superb support and a smooth spin, however harsh the terrain becomes. The 3-pawl, 11-speed-compatible freehub also adds an extra bit of pace and power to proceedings. The tubeless-ready, hole-free rim system also enhances the toughness of this fantastic pairing, with Boost axle sizing creating a stiffer, more responsive form when you get down and dirty.
