Sprint 350 Tubeless are great for climbing and fast rides, everyday or race use. Responsive, smooth and easy to spin up to speed. No gimmicks, hidden nipples or unusual spokes. Comfortable for long rides without compromising stiffness or acceleration. The Sprint 350 Tubeless rim is one of the lightest traditional aluminum road clincher rims in the world. Bill Shook used his design skills and geometry to make the Sprint 350 Tubeless semi-aero rims strong and light with a rim profile of 22.6mm wide × 24mm deep with a large inner width of 19.7mm. These wide profile rims translates into crisp accelerations, faster rolling on the flats and decisive cornering.
Bicycling Magazine said the Sprint 350’s are the, “lightest-per-dollar everyday wheelset we’ve ever found. They excel as race wheels too-not only because they spin up as quickly as you’d guess a featherweight would, but because the deepish rim wall gives just enough aero advantage for sustaining a long solo break at the threshold and despite its wispy weight and radial lacing up front (3-cross rear) the wheel doesn’t noodle in the corners.” Maximize your riding potential with Sprint 350 Tubeless.
Can be ridden with tubeless ready tires and sealant or with regular tires and tubes.
Wide rims improve cycling performance.
Everybody is talking about wider rims for both road and mountain bike. What does it really mean for you, the rider? There are a few wide rim profiles on the market but they are either heavy, or too light and flexy. Bill Shook used his mathematical abilities to design their revolutionary wide rims, attaining the goal of being light, stiff, strong, aerodynamic and wide, all in one rim. To start, wide rims mean riding lighter, smaller performance tyres with cushiony, high air volume and firm surface grip. Larger width tires offer more air volume but they are heavy with a sluggish ride quality. The desired combined wheel and tyre qualities are achieved by stretching out the smaller tire casing on a wide rim and effectively making the tyre bigger. Also, smaller tyres on wide rims reduce tire roll on the rims. With a narrow rim and a wide tyre, the rim floats from side to side on the tyre. Using a wider rim with a smaller tyre minimises float for improved handling, confidence and control. The rim is lower weight at the extreme outer edge of the wheel decreasing rolling resistance and boosting speed. Our wider, lighter rims translate into crisp accelerations, firm ground control, faster rolling on the flats and decisive handling for the extra edge needed by competitive athletes.
