BORG22 rear wheel or wheelset with Shimano Alfine hub gear 8 or 11 speed 32 spoke

£316.66


The BORG22 review here  O.K that's the black one. Please note the product photos show the Miche hubs. BORG wheels or Royce hubs are offered.

The wheels are handbuilt in the shop. I call these BORG22 they are 22mm deep and polished silver. They are my all weather training wheelset for classic looking bikes. The rims are not expensive if they need to be replaced and the hubs, well they love the wet. Bearing life is long in all conditions. 

The silver rim is a rim brake rim but the black option will use a disc brake only rim. 

The wider BORG28Disc rim can be subsituted in black at no extra cost. 

Highlights:

  • A robust all weather wheelset.
  • Shiney silver.
  • Alfine hub 8 or 11 speed. 
  • Stiff yet comfortable.
  • triple butted butted Pillar spokes.
  • 24mm wide tubeless ready wheelset (tubed tyre compatible also).
  • Life if the rim warranty (hub has manufacturer warranty).
  • Dynamo option available.

The rim is 24mm wide and 22mm deep. It weighs 450g. 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, valves.

Spokes and nipples
