Vel 30 GRL Carbon Tubeless Disc 650b Wheelset

Vel 30 GRL Carbon Tubeless Disc 650b Wheelset

Designed as a gravel-specific option, the 30 GRL Carbon Tubeless Disc 650b Wheelset from Vel has a 32mm wide rim made out of 24/30T carbon and has been expertly built by hand. This gives the wheels excellent strength and stiffness without any weight penalty, and the width allows the tyre to spread out for greater air volume, providing increased comfort and grip. These wheels are recommended for use with tyres up to 2.25” wide, giving access to a huge range of gravel tyre options. As the wheels are supplied with valves and are pre-fitted with a double wrap of rim tape, conversion to tubeless tyres is simple, meaning no risk of pinch punctures and an even more supple ride. 

The use of a freehub with six pawls and 102 tooth engagement ring in the Vel RE hub adds instant responsiveness to pedalling input, ideal for tricky technical climbs off-road or when powering out of a corner and sealed bearings improve longevity. The impressive Pillar Wing spokes offer better aerodynamics and stiffness than many better-known brands, adding real benefit to the build and the use of brass nipples shows thoughtfulness too. 12mm thru-axles ensure stiffness and accurate tracking whilst the Center Lock standard rotor fitting is both secure and robust. Spare spokes and nipples are also provided with the wheelset, perfect for taking along on extended trips into the unknown.
