SLR 2 65 WheelSystem
Aero For All
The SLR 2 65 WheelSystems are lightweight carbon aero wheels that come at a refreshingly accessible price. Featuring a 65mm deep aero rim profile and a contemporary inner width of 22.4mm, the SLR 2 65 boasts reduced aerodynamic loss and offers improved support for today’s higher volume tires. With hookless rim design and optimized carbon layup to ensure a robust structure at minimal weight, the SLR 2 65 offers lightweight aero efficiency to all riders.
特徴
Lightweight and Strong
Giant’s hookless rim design enhances overall durability and offers a wider inner rim width, while the optimized carbon layup places carbon fiber at the most critical points to create an exceptionally robust structure at a minimum weight
Aerodynamic
A 65mm-deep hookless rim profile with an updated 22.4 inner width not only reduces front air drag but also provides a smoother airflow transition from tire to rim, reducing overall aerodynamic loss
Confident Handling
Providing a wider inner width for better support of higher volume tires, hookless rim design forms a rounder tire shape for better cornering stability. The SLR 2 65 also features high TG resin to ensure heat tolerance under heavy braking
ハイライト
Behind the outstanding performance of the new Giant SLR 2 65 WheelSystems are several innovative technologies that deliver lightweight aerodynamic advantage, and confident handling.
1
Hookless Rim Design
LIGHTWEIGHT PERFORMANCE
Compared with hook-type rims, Giant’s new hookless design has a wider inner rim width, allowing a smaller, lighter tire to have the same volume as a larger, heavier tire, resulting in a lighter overall weight.
ENHANCED DURABILITY
Giant’s hookless rim design is realized through an innovative manufacturing process that results in a more continuous carbon fiber structure. This process enhances durability and increases impact resistance with no weight penalty.
CONFIDENT HANDLING
Hookless rims help create a more round tire shape that provides superior grip and handling as well as added sidewall support when cornering.
AERO ADVANTAGE
Without the rim hook to “push” the tire bead inward, Giant's hookless rim design offers a more seamless airflow between the tire and the sidewall of the rim, resulting in less drag and improved aero performance when compared to standard hook-type rims.
2
High TG Resin
Giant’s proprietary High Glass Transition Temperature (Tg) resin helps produce a brake track that withstands the higher heat caused by heavy rim braking, enhancing the rim’s longterm durability and braking performance.
3
Optimized Carbon Layup
Through high-tensile strength carbon fiber placed at the most crucial points and tested with Finite Element Analysis (FEA), Giant’s engineers overcame the challenge of building wheels that are as durable as they are lightweight. With industry leading stiffness, ride compliance and strength all at the lightest weight possible, the new SLR WheelSystems are fast and strong.
