Kinetix Comp Wheels

Wheels

Kinetix Comp wheels are strong, fast, light and durable – everything you want in a wheel set. The front wheel is built around the Kinetix Neutron hub: it features cartridge bearings for durability and ultra low rolling resistance and at 54 grams is the lightest production hub on the market. The hub also features a 74 mm OLD which optimizes spoke angles for maximum wheel strength when building smaller 20” wheels. 20” wheels built around standard 100 mm OLD hubs compromise strength and durability. The front wheel is laced up with quality stainless spokes to a Kinetix Aero rim, which features a CNC machined braking surface, double walls, and a safety wear line so you know when to replace the rim.

The rear wheel features the same quality components with two cross spoke lacing on the rear drive side and radial spoke lacing on the non-drive side. Usually, dished wheels have unbalanced spoke tension which leads to compromised durability but with our unique spoke lacing, we end up with balanced spoke tensions and a stronger wheel. The Kinetix Comp rear hub gets an upgrade with machined bearing races. It costs more and you can’t see any outward difference in the hub, but the result is lower friction, improved durability, and more speed.
