Proven by the world’s fastest DH and enduro racers on the most extreme terrain, this high-performance 29” wheelset has earned its status as a racer’s favorite. The constantly evolving Deemax is now stronger and faster than ever.When you’re entering the pinball section on the Fort William World Cup downhill track, or you’re flying blind on the most demanding enduro terrain at an Enduro World Series race, there’s no time to be thinking about your wheels. Deemax is designed to absorb big hits and perform flawlessly on the roughest terrain, giving pros and weekend warriors alike the confidence to push their limits.Developed with input from our top pro athletes, this is one of the most durable wheelsets ever produced for hardcore gravity riders. It has been put to the test over and over again and recently delivered DH pros Laurie Greenland and Marine Cabirou to their first World Cup wins on the deadly Black Snake Track in Val di Sole, Italy. The alloy rims feature a 28mm internal width with a triangular shape that helps absorb huge any impacts from rocks to hard landings and big compressions. Our Black Shied treatment gives them a distinctive finish and protects the rims against impacts and scratches. We chose a classical J-bend spoke construction using 28 steel spokes (same spoke length throughout), double-butted and bladed for the perfect balance of vertical compliance and strength to handle the abuses of aggressive gravity riding.The hubs benefit from our strongest bearings and the rear hub features the ultra-reliable ID360 double ratchet system for fast engagement to help you accelerate out of the corners. It’s set up for either Boost or DH hub spacing frames and has 6-bolt disc mounts. It’s available for Shimano HG9, XD and Micro Spline freewheel bodies in 27.5” and 29”. The wheels include UST tubeless valves, spare spokes and accessories.

What makes the perfect cycling shoe? Is it exceptional power transfer? Superior Comfort? Undeniable style? The simple answer is 'yes' to all of the above. With the S-Works 7 you get a shoe with no compromises. We took a no holds barred approach to transferring every bit of your power to the pedals. The lighter and stiffer Powerline™ carbon sole is new and brought to you by the same team that developed Rider-First Engineering. Why's this special? Because it led to our lightest and stiffest carbon outsole to date. A completely refined Padlock™ Heel meanwhile packs in more comfort with the same exceptional heel hold that you found in the previous iteration. And finally the space-grade Dyneema™ material used in the upper doesn’t stretch when pulled on making sure that your foot stays where it’s supposed to. With these all features combined you can be sure that we’ve kept in line with the motto “every watt is sacred.” In the comfort arena we kept all of the Body Geometry features you know and love like the Longitudinal Arch Varus Wedge and Metatarsal Button. Each one of these features have been ergonomically designed and scientifically tested to not only boost power but also to increase efficiency and reduce the risk of injury. We also took luxury into account by designing the S-Works 7 to have form that complements its function so you'll find seams that are bonded together rather than sewn cleaning up the lines and contouring to your foot with slipper-like comfort. The custom CNC’d alloy BOA® dials also add some panache but they also feature durable spring clutch internals and precise one-millimeter micro-adjustments that let you perfectly dial in your fit. The S-Works 7 embodies everything we know about footwear compacted into one shoe–no compromises no shortcuts just explosive speed and superior comfort. Body Geometry sole and footbed are ergonomically designed and scientifically tested to boost power increase efficiency and reduce the chance of injury by optimizing hip knee and foot alignment. Our stiffest and lightest FACT Powerline™ carbon plate maximizes power transfer: Stiffness Index 15.0 Dyneema® Mesh is trapped between layers of four-way stretch mesh and TPU to create no-stretch zones for the ultimate connection and comfort. Independent alloy BOA® S3-Snap dials for on-the-fly micro-adjustment backed by the BOA® Lifetime Guarantee. PadLock™ heel construction cradles the heel and is proven to improve acceleration Titanium alloy cleat nuts can rotate to position pedal/cleats 5mm rearward. Non-slip replaceable heel tread with internally recessed screws for security. Form Fit last with a roomy toe box for the ultimate in connectivity and comfort. Three-bolt cleat pattern fits all major road pedals. Approximate weight: 224g (1/2 pair Size 42)

Ride through the gravel and mud with this stunning model which delivers stress-free operation on the bumpiest of rides. It features some of the most sought-after technologies including the revolutionary Di2 shifting system which gives you instant, precise and lightning-fast shifts. To top it off, its raised hood prevents slipping, so you can enjoy improved confidence and grip on rough surfaces and descents. Technologies: Di2: The revolutionary Di2 shifting system solves the challenges drivetrains present to the power-delivery equation in cycling. Di2 gives you instant, accurate, lightning-fast shifts the first and every time, at the push of a button. Even in the most extreme conditions, shifting is precise and controlled. You can change gear even under heavy load while climbing or accelerating. With Di2, you are in complete control. E-Tube: The E-Tube platform's “Plug & play” and D-Fly wireless connections make it easier than ever to check the system's status and apply customised settings to Di2 and Shimano Steps components with a PC, tablet or smartphone. SEIS: A technological innovation of the computerised shifting system based on the Di2 concept with which is called, the SEIS (Shimano Electronic Intelligent System). The SEIS innovative shift technology is still based on the Shimano Index System (SIS) that has proved its superior gear changing characteristics over the years. The big difference is that in this case, the shifting action is provided for by electronics instead of mechanics. This electronic shifting system has been extensively tested over past two years by several professional riders in all conditions possible, such as rain, mud, low temperatures, cobblestone roads and combinations of all of these at the same time. Shifting is executed by simply pressing the button. No power is needed to shift, which gives important advantages since it is easier now to always keep a tight grip on the handlebar and to keep your concentration on riding instead on shifting. The shift system allows accurate and effortless shifting in difficult circumstances for example when you have cold hands or when you are completely exhausted. Furthermore, the shifting performance will never be affected by contaminated or stretched cables since the shifting signal is transferred electronically. The operating buttons work similarly to the mechanical Dual Control Lever, so you don’t need to re-program your mind for the SEIS. Reach Adjust: Brake lever is equipped with a reach adjust mechanism. The distance from handlebar grip to lever can be adjusted to suit any hand size, type of riding and individual rider preferences.
