The rim
The aluminum mtb rims have an ultra low, milled profile to keep the lowest peripheral weight possible, making the wheel extremely reactive.
This specific shape also provides excellent impact resistance.
Asymmetric: the rim shape has been studied to improve the tensions, balancing the forces coming from the brakes and cassette.
Tubeless ready: over the time tubeless has been established as the preferred solution for the high-end wheels, as it ensures better handling and protection against punctures. Red Passion is ready for the transformation: thanks to a special contoured and reinforced mtb rims profile that adheres more easily to the tire, while fitting is easy and safe.

Hubs
The carbon hub and aluminum flange are features of a project that focuses on excellence in material choice as well as in performance.
The new hub system allows the switch from one standard to another, through axle or XD, simply by changing adapters.
These mtb wheels are easily adapted and fitted to all frame standards ready for the next ride!
The freehub body will be submitted to Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation treatment in the laboratory. Despite the thickness of the material being reduced to the minimum, the duration and strength are maintained with the benefit of a lower weight.

Bearings
The Cup and cone bearings system: extremely easy ball-bearing adjustment.
Reduction of ball-bearing play, increased smoothness, reduction of weight and greater efficiency over time.

Spokes and nipples
Aluminum nipples: make it possible to reduce the peripheral mass of the mtb wheels to the minimum, thus increasing its reactivity.
