The BORG 26 All Weather wheelset provides guaranteed reliability in all conditions. The wheels are built with high mileage riders in mind and therefore are suitable for all types of riders.

They are mainly used as an all-weather training wheelset. The rims are not expensive if they need to be replaced which is unlikely and the hubs, well they love the wet. Bearing life is long in all conditions. The rim is 24mm wide and 26mm deep. It weighs 475g. The rear rim has offset drilling for increased NDS spoke tension (this is a good thing for spoke life). The internal width of this rim is 19mm and it has a 2mm thick spoke nipple bed. All tyres will sit wider on this rim than they would on a narrower one. This improves rider comfort due to the increased air volume and due to the different tyre shape handling in the bends particularly over broken road surfaces is improved. These wheels are robust, and the rims are low cost meaning they are perfect training wheels and ideal for wet weather/winter use. They are supplied tubeless ready with tubeless tape and valves. Tubed tyres can of course be fitted and are an easy fit. Even Schwalbe Marathons fit with ease. Please note that the images are for illustration purposes only.
