Speed Tuned GrTR21d 36HD Tubeless Clincher Wheel Set

Description The Speed Tuned GRTR21d is a Gravel (GR) Tubeless Ready Disc rim that is still light enough for road.  This rim is 22mm tall, 25mm wide, with a 21mm tubeless ready inner profile that’s really strong, extremely stable, and at 480g, 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. Given the fact that these rims are 36 hole, we have Shimano Deore and Speed Tuned Super 6 hub options.  Shimano Deore hubs are, well, present.  Speed Tuned Super 6 hubs are the way to go.  Better engagement, a beefy 17mm aluminum axle, convertible end cap options, and convertible freehub options.  They’re flexible, maintainable, and easy to live with. In “stock” form, these wheels are built with Sapim Leader black spokes in a 36 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 GRTR21d 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.
