H Plus Son The Hydra wheelset disc brake wheelset

£429.00


The H Plus Son The Hydra wheelset is very pretty wheelset using a 25mm wide rim that is 23mm deep.

The width of the rim make it suitable for road use and off road CX or gravel road riding. The rim is stiff and feature H Plus Son invisible weld join. There is no strict weight limit. This is why 28H is not offered. Its a wheelset for adventures. 

Thr rim come in black.

The black rims are laced with black triple butted (2.2mm diameter elbow)  Sapim Force spokes 32 spoke front and rear 3x.

Hubs used: 

The BORG Wheels hub are available in 32H drilling. The have centrelock rotor mounts and come with Q/R and kits for 100x12mm/100x15mm front thru axles and 142x12mm rear thru axle. Q/R rear can be swapped in at the shop . 

The freehub has 4 independently spring loaded pawls and a 36T ratchet ring. It is advisable to re-grease the freehub mechanism with good grease like Rock n Roll Super Web to keep the hub quiet and to stop water ingress weakening the spring. 

They are a large flange design because large flange hub reduces the braking loads on the spokes compared to small flange designs.  The front hub has 2x NTN 6902 LLB bearings and the rear hub has 2x NTN 6902 LLB. The freehub body has 1x NTN 6902 LLB and 1x NTN 6802 LLB for shimano and  1x 2x 6803 bearing for Campagnolo, XDR and N3W freehubs . All spares are available.

Dynamo hubs fron son are also available. The son 28 centrelock disc hub is used. If 6 bolt hubs are required just ask. 

Supplied tubeless ready with tubeless rim tape, tubeless valves and tubeless tyre levers. I will warn though, tubeless tyres dont always stay seated on the rims without airbut set up quite easily. I consider this rim semi tubeless compatible. Great with tubed tyres though (easy fit). 

5 year/10,000 guarantee against spoke failure, rim failure anything that could be put down to a wheel build problem. 

 Tyres can be fitted if you buy them.
