- 6069 aluminium alloy rim, shot-peened, with thicker walls in impact zones

- Boost 148 x 12 mm with SRAM XD freehub body
- 32 Pillar SR TB 2018 spokes, lifetime rim warranty
Stiff where it counts
Crankbrothers tunes each Synthesis wheel for its end of the bike. The rear gets more stiffness to absorb peak loads and track at speed, with a narrower 29.5 mm inner width that sharpens the tyre edge for grip. This DH wheel comes in Boost 148 x 12 mm spacing.
Ratchet hub
The Crankbrothers Ratchet hub engages every 10° out of the box. Fit the Crankbrothers 54T Ratchet Upgrade Kit (sold separately) for 6.6° engagement. Crankbrothers offers replacement Ratchet freehub bodies in Shimano HG, HG Road and Micro Spline and SRAM XD and XDR.
