Sector GCi Carbon Gravel WheelsetWhether you're racing across the mud or simply exploring the countryside gravel roads, this wheelset is engineered for fast and smooth-rolling performance. It features a hard-wearing unidirectional carbon fibre rim construction, which allows you to benefit from its amazing strength without adding any unnecessary grams to your gravel bike. Engineered to excel in high impact environments, this model is equipped with revolutionary TeXtreme Innegra that's integrated into the layup of the rims. This special fibre delivers 75% high impact resistance when compared to standard carbon rims of the same profile. This means you can enjoy high energy rides with superior vibration damping and none of the harsh stiffness associated with carbon.So what is Innegra?Innegra is a fibre derived from polypropylene that exhibits some highly beneficial properties, including high strength-to-weight ratio, resistance to damage, vibration damping and energy dissipation. The TexTreme fabric used in the layup of GCi rim is a Spread Tow fabric built from a hybrid of Innegra and T700 carbon fibres. The Spread Tow layout is significant because it also contributes some positive attributes - the fibres are straighter (reduced crimp therefore higher strength) and it facilitates the use of less resin (lower weight).In the GCi rim the Spread Tow fabric is used on the outer layer of the rim, giving it the unique checkerboard pattern.Sounds good, but what does that mean for a rim? Significantly more compliance...Under a lab test the GCi rim was 50% more vertically compliant than a unidirectional T700 carbon rim of the same profile. This test involves loading the rim with a 100kg weight, in which the GCi rim exhibited a deflection of 15.74mm compared to 10.55mm on the standard T700 rim.It is widely acknowledged that vertical compliance is important for damage reduction (less likely to crack), a reduction of fatigue and to improve traction. Such an improvement in vertical compliance also brings a radically improved ride quality to the GCi wheelset.The Innegra equipped rims do not have the associated harsh stiffness of regular carbon wheels. Significantly more impact resistance...In the lab the GCi rim was able to handle impacts of almost double the standard required for MTB wheels by the UCI. The GCi rim withstood an impact of 140J compared the UCI stipulated requirement of an 80J impact, making it 75% stronger than the UCI requirements. In real world terms, the GCi rim can handle the equivalent of dropping a 15kg weight from a height of up to 1.08 metres onto the bare rim, thus making it 18% stronger than a recognised leading competitor who has published their data. Much less weight...Despite offering strength and compliance advantages, the use of Innegra also allows the construction of an extremely lightweight rim. The Innegra equipped GCi rim weighs just 440g, and Sector's complete wheelset weighs just 1690g.Features: Rim Material: T-700 Unidirectional Carbon Fibre; Outer layer: TeXtreme Plain Weave Spread Tow Carbon Fibre and Innegra S Hybrid Wheel Size: 700c Use: Gravel Spokes / Type: Pillar 1422 Bladed / Straight Pull Nipples: Pillar Black Brass DSN Hub Rotor Fitment: Centrelock Freehub: 6 Pawl (Shimano or SRAM XD options available to select) Hole Count: 24h ERD: 566mm Rim Width: (Internal) 24mm | (External) 31mm Rim Depth: 38mm Tubeless: Yes Single or Pair: Pair End Caps: (Front) 100x12mm / (Rear) 142x12mm Extras: Tubeless Sealant, valves, tape and 15mm end caps Weight: 1690gBuy Sector Wheels & Tyres from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

Riders seeking a strong durable and lightweight wheelset for rugged road and gravel adventures will find this 650B/27.5 diameter wheel with wider rims a perfect choice. It makes no compromises on responsiveness durability and ease of use.The lightweight aluminum rims feature ISM4D technology which strategically removes material from the rim where it’s not needed but keeps it around the spokes where tension is applied. Double butted spokes further reduce weight and make the wheel feel more responsive. The spokes have an aero elliptical shape that can save 5 watts of energy while maintaining your speed. Super-wide rims (25mm internal) are compatible with tubeless tires up to 64mm to absorb road shocks and vibrations. You get 5cm of “tire travel” to cushion your ride and the smaller-diameter rims allow you to retain the agile handling you want with a drop-bar bike.Our UST system has been improved with a new rim bed shape that makes it easier than ever to install and change tires. Fore technology attaches the spokes to the rim without the need to drill the upper rim bed so no tape is required. No hassles no added weight. Our new Infinity hub platform optimizes spoke lacing with highly controlled tension for maximum power transfer and the Instant Drive 360 freewheel coupled with our automatic bearing preload adjustment (QRM Auto) provides fast engagement stiffness and added durability. The wheels use center lock brake rotors and are available with Shimano or SRAM XD-Road driver bodies and can convert to Campagnolo with an optional driver body. The front hub is a 12mm thru-axle that can convert to 15mm or quick release. The rear is a 12x142 and can also convert to quick release. Key benefits Traction rolling efficiency and confidence on all types of terrain Wider 650B/27.5 rims let you run larger high-volume tires and still maintain the responsive handling of a normal road bike 5cm of plush “tire travel” improves traction and comfort prevents pinch flats and lets you dial in the perfect tire pressure for the terrain UST Tubeless compatibility for lower rolling resistance Superlight and durable ISM4D rim is only 440g Patented lightweight aero spokes Automatic bearing preload (QRM Auto) requires no adjustment and guarantees long-term durability Fore drilling doesn't require the use of rim tape - 30g saved per wheel Laterally stiff and vertically compliant for a dynamic ride quality Fore technology keeps the rim upper bridge solid to make the rim stiffer 17mm axle and new hub design ID360 freewheel technology is 12mm compatible convertible to quick release (15mm axle option through axle replacement) Rims Material: Maxtal Tire: UST Tubeless and tubetype Disc brake specific profile SUP welding technology Fore tapeless tubeless technology UST tubeless technology Weight reduction: ISM 4D Internal width: 25 mm Hookless profile Height: 22 mm ETRTO size : 584x25TSS Spokes Count: 24 front and rear Nipples: Fore integrated aluminum Material: steel Shape: straight pull elliptical aero double butted (patented) Lacing: front and rear crossed 2 contactless Delivered with User guide UST valve and accessories Multifonction adjustment wrench (delivered with rear wheel) Intended use Recommended tire sizes: 28 to 64 mm (11 to 25) ASTM CATEGORY 2 : road and offroad with jumps less than 15cm For a longer longevity of the wheel Mavic recommends that the total weight supported by the wheels doesn't exceed 120kg bike included Max Pressure: see indication on wheel and tire If they differ use the lowest of the 2 Minimum and maximum allowed tyre width: see indication on wheel Maximum tyre pressure: 41bar/59PSI with a 28mm tyre - 245bar/36PSI with a 64mm tyre Hubs Axle material: aluminum Front and rear bodies: aluminum Instant Drive 360 freewheel technology Rear: Quick Release 12x142 and 12x135 compatible Front: Quick release 12x100 and 15x100 through axle compatible QRM Auto bearing preload technology Infinity hubs Compatibility Freewheel: Shimano/Sram convertible to Campagnolo ED11 N3W and XD-R with optional driver bodies Rear axle: 12mm thru axle convertible to Quick Release with optional adapters and axle replacement Front axle: 12mm thru axle easily convertible to quick release with optional adapters Convertible to 15mm with complete axle replacement Versions Disc standard: Center Lock® only Freewheel: Shimano/Sram or XD-Road Compatible Adapters and freewheel bodies 12 to 9mm front adapter for quick release (V2680301) 15mm axle (V2373501) ID360 Shimano / Sram Light freewheel body (V3850101) ID360 Campagnolo freewheel body (V3440101) ID360 XD-R freewheel body (V2580101) ID360 Shimano / Sram freewheel body (V3430101) 15mm axle (LVXXXXXX) 12 to 9mm rear adapter for quick release (V2510801 (with axle V2373401) ID360 N3W freewheel body (V4270101) Information on specified weight The weight of the wheels is announced at +/-5% in XD/XD-R and Center Lock version without quick release nor valve nor rim tape

Low-speed rebound 16 clicksFloating Axle: Floating axles provide much smoother suspension movement throughout the entire range of the fork’s travel, notably improving sensitivity and overall ride quality. The updated 36 and 38 come equipped with a new quick-release lever operated patent-pending floating axle system, combining the benefit of a floating axle with the ease of a tool-free quick-release. With this system, spacing is locked in via a floating sleeve, allowing repeated front wheel removal and reinstallation while maintaining perfect fork alignment. Floating sleeve positioning comes preset from the factory so if you are unsure of how to operate the floating axle system or simply don’t want to bother with it, you can just install the front wheel and get on with your rideLower Leg Bypass Channels: As a fork compresses, the air volume within the lower legs decreases, increasing air pressure. The more the fork compresses, the more pressure increases. This effect can have the unintended consequence of preventing full travel from being achieved. Fox Suspension's lower leg channels help alleviate this issue by dramatically increasing air volume within the lower legs and thereby reducing the amount of additional unintended pressure ramping. Another benefit of these channels is that lower leg bath oil is circulated to the upper reaches of the lower legs, continuously lubricating the foam rings and bushings as the fork compresses and extends through its travelBleeders: Fox Suspension's lower leg bleeders allow for atmospheric pressure equalization at the simple press of a button. Pressure build-up in the lower legs dramatically decreases fork performance, preventing full travel from being achieved, and diminishing small bump sensitivity and responsivenessLower Leg Arch: The arch design of the updated 36, 38, and 40 models are designed to pair perfectly with modern Enduro and Downhill bikes. Head tube profiles have grown larger and larger, and fork offsets shorter and shorter. Fox Suspension's updated arch shape takes this need into account by jutting forward to provide ample headtube clearance at full compression. State-of-the-art computer modeling techniques helped us to create an organic lower leg shape that optimizes stiffness with the absolute minimal amount of material.Buy Fox Suspension Components from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
