To identify the best structure for overall performance and durability, Giant engineers examined every possible angle of the new rim composition. After months of testing, we decided on a new carbon molding process to produce a hookless design with superior carbon continuity. The result: greatly improved overall strength and impact resistance.
Confidence Delivered
The all-new XCR WheelSystems
Giant’s lightest, most efficient XC race WheelSystem delivers efficient power transmission, light weight and durability you can depend on. It all adds up to the performance advantage you need to crush every XC course.
Højdepunkter
Attack the trail with total confidence. Giant's totally re-designed rim structure and optimized carbon laminate combine with our tried and tested Dynamic Balanced Lacing to create wheels that are light enough to conquer the steepest climbs, yet strong enough to attack the most technical descents with pinpoint control.

Hookless Design
2
Rim Bead Reinforcement
Tackling extreme singletrack, drops and jumps can be hard on your wheels. That's why we increased bead-to-bead width, to help disperse impact load and enhance the rim's structural strength, all without increasing overall weight.

Precise Spoke Hole Reinforcement
To achieve the perfect balance of durability and weight, Giant engineered precise reinforcement around each spoke hole, giving support exactly where it’s needed without adding any unnecessary material.
4
Refined Inner Shape
Featuring optimized carbon layering, Giant’s redesigned rim has smoother transitions, creating a more durable overall structure with superior impact resistance.

Optimized Carbon Laminate
Optimized inner rim width maximizes the performance of today’s higher volume off-road tires, giving you improved traction and a smoother ride quality.

Boost Axles
Wider 110mm and 148mm hubs give improved lateral stiffness and superior control.

Dynamic Balanced Lacing
Engineered with more leverage on the “pulling” spoke and less on the “pushing” spoke, DBL technology maximizes the performance of the wheel in a dynamic state by generating a perfect balance of spoke tension for optimal transmission stiffness and braking performance.

Dynamic Balanced Lacing
Since its introduction in 2015, Dynamic Balanced Lacing (DBL) has been the cornerstone of Giant WheelSystems. DBL ensures that spokes are set for optimal tension when under dynamic load, resulting in enhanced durability and pedaling efficiency. The enlarged DBL hub flange also increases the spoke bracing angles, which boosts overall torsional/transmission and lateral stiffness for better power transfer and more stable sprinting.
Tubeless System
Færre flade dæk. Større trækkraft. Mindre rullemodstand og en mere jævn og hurtigere kørsel. Giant's Tubeless System gør det lettere end nogensinde at opleve alle disse fordele.
