Quite possibly the best riding aluminum road wheel on the planet! The I25 utilizes a 23.2mm wide rim extrusion instead of the traditional 19-19.5mm industry standard. This offers a huge leap in lateral stiffness and strength. Even more important though, is the added sidewall support this rim provides. It allows the use of 10-15 psi lower tire pressures which provides exceptional, tubular-like ride quality and improved cornering grip as well. Add the ability of going Tubeless and you've got the best rim characteristics available. As a bonus the wider rim improves aerodynamics, by allowing a smoother transition for airflow from tire to rim - when coupled with the industry standard 23 and 25c tires.
These road wheels use the same drivering and pawls as the new Torch Moutain hubs, rated to withstand 700 ft/lbs of torque! However, we reduced the pawl count to 3 instead of 6, for lower drag and weight, while still achieving and industry leading (for road hubs) 6 degree engagement.
As a final measure, Torch hubs feature custom Teflon contact seals for the endcaps, which we manufacture in house. They fully seal the hubs from mud and water - tight enough for a muddy CX season, but smooth enough for drag-free road miles.
