SLR 1 40 650b Wheelsystems | Sure Footed Speed | Giant Bicycles Україна

The SLR 1 40 650b WheelSystem delivers the same lightweight efficiency and aerodynamic advantages as its 700C counterpart, but is specifically designed for smaller frame sizes. This performance road wheel offers rapid acceleration and nimble handling—making it the perfect choice for small riders taking on big challenges.

LIGHTWEIGHT

Optimized carbon layup with high-tensile-strength carbon fiber strategically places reinforcement at critical stress points, creating a stiff, lightweight structure. At just 1300g, the 650b option further reduces the weight, making it ideal for smaller bikes and lighter riders.

EFFICIENT

The SLR 1 40 650b WheelSystem features a lightweight carbon rim specifically tuned for smaller frame sizes and riders. Its smaller diameter and shorter spokes offer increased stiffness and better transmission efficiency.

CONFIDENT

A strategically optimized carbon layup reinforces key stress zones with high-tensile-strength fibers, enhancing strength without adding weight. The hookless rim design forms a continuous, robust structure for lightweight durability, while the 22.4mm inner width and wider 2.8mm bead provide better tire support and more confident handling on road and mixed terrain.

Технології

Optimized Carbon Lay-Up

Giant optimized reinforced layup places extra maximum-strength carbon fiber only where needed, creating a robust structure at minimal weight.

Динамічно-збалансоване спицювання DBL

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.

Hookless Rim Design

Hookless rim design enhances overall durability, offers a wider inner rim width without adding extra weight and also helps create a more round tire shape providing superior grip and handling as well as added sidewall support when cornering. Additionally, without the rim hook to “push” the tire bead inward, 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.

Low Friction Hub

Giant uses precision machined internals to eliminate the power loss that occurs through the pressure from the hub internals on the bearings, reducing friction and minimizing rolling resistance.

Безкамерні системи

Fewer flat tires. Greater traction. Less rolling resistance and a smoother, faster ride. Giant’s Tubeless System makes it easier than ever to experience all these benefits.
