Syntace W40i Straight M40 EVO6 Disc 6-bolt 29″ Wheel

The Pioneer: the W40i Straight M40 Wheel by Syntace
In the past, narrow rims and heavy tyres were the norm. Today, however, wide rims can be combined with new, lightweight tyre types. But really wide, high-quality rims were inevitably still a little heavier than their narrow brothers, or else durability suffered. Syntace was the first to break this vicious cycle in 2011. The original Syntace W35 rim was the first such wide and light alloy rim on the market. After more than 5 years of experience, Syntace has improved it more with an even better aluminium alloy and with a profile that has been further developed after many test runs.

Much more crack-resistant spoke anchoring in the rim base thanks to SmoothFit profile. Perfectly angled nipple embedded in the rim well. More durable than previous rim bottoms or mere shims that add weight to the rim but do not reinforce the edge of the spoke hole.

V-Shape:
Inclined, massively reinforced rim flanges with a tread with a retaining groove for the best possible tyre fit, the result of rigorous testing. 25 % higher stability than the multiple test winner and predecessor W35.

3x Protected Bearings:
New double Syntace Dura-Seal sealing caps (Pat. pend.) protect the Syntace precision hub bearings which are now sealed on both sides. Filled with special grease, which has a more than 25 % higher water absorption capacity, further improved corrosion inhibitors and a high oil bleeding temperature.

Steel Inserts:
Patented, form-fit steel bars transmit power from the freehub body made of 7075 aluminium to the sprocket set every 120°. Meant especially for high torques in MTB, this is an insurance against inseparably twisted pinion assemblies. Easily replaceable. (License American Classic /USA)

Bearing Play Micro-Adjustable:
The new test bench-optimised hub body made of 7050 aluminium is trued by Syntace MicroAdjust caps, which are also new, scaled and now splash-proof. Also with different quick release or thru-axle tightening torques.
