This wheel set is designed for epic cross country rides.  Tight, aggressive trail riding through overgrown thicket, over roots, and occasional drops are no match for the Sun SOS’ wide profile and inherently strong conical design.  The SOS’® 28mm width means that it is possible to mount up to a 2.5” tire, so you’ll be able to select from many of your favorites.  These rims are welded, boosting the rim’s strength and durability, and include the obligatory single stainless eyelets for nipple support and longevity.  Due to the SOS’® strength and precision, we can true these rims down to almost 1 tenth of 1mm.  Considering what these wheels are designed to handle though, wheel trueness isn’t enough.  That’s why we keeping checking spoke tension throughout our building and stress relieving processes, to make sure that every aspect of the finished wheel is correct.

These wheels are laced three cross to Shimano 756 XT® 6-bolt disc hubs using black DT Swiss stainless spokes with brass nipples.  The Shimano XT® 6-Bolt disc hubs are reliable performers, making this wheel set a natural contender in any decision for a new set of mountain bike wheels.  This set comes with Shimano XT® skewers, is Shimano 8/9 speed compatible, and is designed specifically and only for bicycles equipped with disc brakes.  Please feel free to take a closer look.
